my grandby does not have a porta potti or a holding tank/pipe/line. As it is configured now it does not have room for one. On guy trips its not a big deal to deal with the issues. Add family and its a different story. Most of the time its crawl down from the bed, step over who ever is sleeping on the couch, bump around and find your shoes open the door, duck!, let in the cold, scamble to the bathroom facility or vegetation and head back. Its almost the same as tent camping in this respect.

i have one of the wet porta potti's in my boat, but i dont want to have that blue junk in my camper. I dont like it in my boat. Any of you with the dry potti's have any comments on how well they work? The best location, set up for a dry porta potti? I dont think i can squeeze in a door for the project. maybe locate one in a corner that can be used for storage also? probably need about 2'X 1.5' of area? that gives less than 6 feet for sleeping along the side, unless there is a lifting type of separation, and the porta potti is below sleeping level.

Has anyone came up with a fashionable, private, usable, porta potti in their rig? I dont mind dedicating room to it if it works. thanks J

This is what we're doing. http://www.rei.com/p...onmental-toilet

At night though we just use Little John. My wife uses it with a Lady J adapter.

Got your email about batteries and solar but can't see hoe to answer it from WTW. I'll answer it as soon as I do. BTW, I'm in SJ too.

I just use the Thetford potty on the floor.

Not the best arrangement, but for the midnight & (1:00, 3:00 5:00) P calls, it works for us.
Must be the age thing, well...enough said.

When you gotta go, well you just do it!

We don't have to go outside and that works for us.

Also,...I do have an original "Traveling John".
