As soon as she saw the video where you have to take out the bottom container and "pour" the stuff out manually, she said NO. lol. Also, she is imagining sitting directly on top of a container that holds all that waste. Its probably no where near that bad...
But I'm open minded here. Is it really better? I would have thought since I have to dump grey water as well, it's not really all that much trouble dumping black water first through the same tube...
Also, where can you dump other than the RV dump stations? Can you carry them into conventional toilet and dump there?
I have dumped my cassette into a porta-potti, a pit toilet, a regular toilet, into an RV dump and down the plumbing clean-out at my house. Push-come-to-shove, since I don't use chemicals (other then poo eating enzymes) I could dig a hole and dump it into that, if far enough out in the boonies. It would be no different then a bear-pooping-in-the-woods and the trees would enjoy the fertilizer boost(DO NOT do this if you use the blue stuff in tank). The gray water usually goes into a bucket and then into the fire pit to extinguish last nights fire before we move on.
