This guy built a garbage disposal macerator a few years back, and says it works fine. If you read through the comments, he and at least one other guy claim that they work great, and are pumping over 100’ distance and at least 4’ rise to their septic tanks.
DIY RV Macerator Pump
:):)
As others have said a disposer is not a pump, and I have yet to see one that is or has a pump.. It could be 300' but the only way it will drain in that scenario is if the outlet level of the disposer is higher than the drain end of the hose, and no part of the hose is higher than the outlet of the the hose. Even then its going to drain slowly. They may claim theyre defying gravity, but the net is full of people making all sorts of claims.
