Do Ice Cubes in the Black Tank Really Work?
Not so much, according to my latest testing... I know I'm supposed to be working on testing additives, but I had this idea and couldn't resist heading out to test it. I could never test all ...

I too did an experiment many years ago when I first heard of this "method". Being the inveterate skeptic that I am, I did the following:
Put 5 gallons of water in a flat plastic bin. Bin in the shade with the ambient temperature at 81 and the water temp. at 78. Added a 10 lb bag of ice. It took precisely 4 minutes 17 seconds for ALL of the ice to melt and that with no agitation. Hardly enough time for most folks to get out of their driveways.
