The Laveo Dry Flush toilet in our Happier Camper HCT 

I was waiting for oatmeal like another RU-vidr used to simulate you know what.

I had not considered this...!

Not at all - no smell at all. And trust me, I was super paranoid about this - like EVERYTHING about this! I was worried it wouldn't work as advertised, I was worried there would be an odor, I was worried that disposing of it could be a problem - none of the above. It's a really great option, but those inserts are expensive.

@@jenniferpreston8365 After getting more than skin deep into the actual function of the 'composting' option... I'm SUPER glad I know about this option. Aside from the fact that it seems that full time users go through the composting medium MUCH faster than advertised, they're $200 more expensive, and that's 6 cartridges! My truck won't be short (as short, I'm building out a 22' Isuzu box truck) on space, I'm just going to build a second 'liquids only' toilet for female guests to make the cartridges last longer. Also, good video, subbed.

Sure - next time we are going to change it out I will do that for you. Making your own..... I am going to give that a maybe. I think to figure that out, I would buy the inserts and then reverse engineer one to see if you can make one, and have it be really robust. Having this leak would be a bad thing!

@@jenniferpreston8365 My grocery store plastic bags leak sometimes, it's not that bad.

But of course lol!

I think it's 17 but we always plan for 14-15. You can get a 3-pack of inserts for about $100. If you estimate 15 per pack, so 45 flushes for $100. They aren't cheap and we use a campground toilet if we are in a state or national park but these are awesome for being off grid..

I saved up a ton of grocery store plastic bags, I just shyt inside of those.

That's quite a visual... but nope - it doesn't smell at all. And trust me - I was pretty freaked out about this whole concept but it works very well.

This seems like a good idea, did you ever find a definitive answer?

It's a wet bath so it is designed for the interior to get fully wet.. You can lift the toilet out if you want to when showering, but we just use another towel to wipe it down

It's tight quarters, so ideally you'd move the dry flush out of the shower before using but you can absolutely keep it in there. It's easy enough to pick up and put outside. If I was going to camp in a single location for a few days, had a municipal water source so I wasn't thinking about how to conserve water (or propane), I'd put the dry flush outside in a pop up room and have the shower to use whenever I wanted.

It does have an option for a black water tank. And TBH, the dry flush is expensive - those inserts do cost you. But in terms of ease of use - and clean up - it's really, really clean. There's never a smell and there's no black water hose which are big pluses in our book.

The battery lasts three months, it's not exactly difficult to keep up on.
