Oh, I am all for it.
My point was that I can't see how what they were trying differed from a conventional macerator toilet, so I'm not sure it counts as innovation.

I've been behind that guy, too. Lots of folks seem to approach dumping as a religious ritual.

However, it is not fair to compare this to the experience of someone with a properly set up...

Well, that would be a better choice than having to walk all the way into the truck stop and standing in line. Especially if you have to bring the key back afterwards.

BTW, this is what a typical European-style dump station looks like, at least in Iceland:

11368

That is greywater coming out of the rig and into a grate. The pipe sticking up is for the cassette.

Yeah. When I saw that my first thought was how much I hated touching the little 1" cap at the end of my sealed macerator hose. Now we are supposed to remove and replace (a) the cap on the cassette;...

Wait... Am I confused?
You guys aren't saying that the purpose of this device is to leave the cassette inside the van while dumping, are you? I can't picture that at all.

According to one of...

There were a lot of things I disliked about using a cassette toilet, but actually emptying the cassette was not one of them. Once one manages to lug the full cassette to the dump station, actually...

Yes, this is true of conventional tankless water heaters that have their own combustion chambers--takes too long for everything to spin up.

BUT: it is not true of flash-plate tankless DHW heaters...

I've already acknowledged the advantage during the 1-2 sec flush interval. That part isn't a marketing scheme, I suppose.
But, it just amazes me the percentage of the RV world who believe that...

I can assure you that no one in the world is more sensitive to odors than DW. :bow:

So, any sewage system has an "inside" (smelly) and an "outside" (hopefully not smelly). The trick is to avoid vapor from leaking from the former to the latter. In both plumbed and cassette toilets,...

Absolutely not!
As we have discussed many times, a properly functioning RV black tank system won't smell any more than your home toilet (i.e., not at all). Unlike a cassette, a plumbed toilet is...
