Aiming is one of the great skills especially when firing solids into the cassette. it takes great skill far greater than the skill of a footballer to line up the barrel with the what is a quite small entrance orifice to the waste tank. I do note some people use paper to line the bowl before unleashing the load however i find lining up by feel much more satisfying, then when you peer in after the deed is done and you have not gone in off the post you can smile smugly and get back to the beer. On the other hand if you have forgotten to open the flap it is a much more disappointing experience involving poking and wiping.

Eloquently put.

Why do people not do number 2s in toilet? I know I prefer emptying when it's 2 free but not much difference to the volume and roses isn't that bad a smell.

For me I feel comfortable emptying a toilet that just has pee in it no chemicals in toilet paper down a storm drain or in a hedgerow when out and about discreetly of course.
 
If the volume is 21 litres then it's simply a matter of weighing a few poops to gain an average weight,assuming you're a once a day man then if for example the average poop is one kilogramme,then that should be twenty one days worth. Although I would probably empty after twenty days to allow for any expansion,especially during summer.

I kilogram poop! That's over 2lb. No wonder I like to get weighed AFTER the loo! 😂
 
as often as you fill it up. And that is more accurate than the specifics of the original question, hee hee.

Hi,
sorry to have to ask, but I can't actually find this answered anywhere and am just looking for a rough idea.

So, for one person using it just for no.2 how long would it be between empties if using one with a 21 litre waste tank (the largest size)?

Also, I assume I wouldn't have an issue with smell if I built a gasketed box to keep it in?

cheers!
