You forgot to mention that the Trelino does not have a trap door or view screen. This is complex and expensive engineering that makes a toilet far nicer to use. I suppose instead the Trelino has a lid on the little container inside. But you have to open everything up to remove it every time. What a hassle! And someone is going to forget sooner or later. And no fan? There is very humid, very stinky air in there. You need a fan or as soon as you open the toilet, stinky air is going to come up the hole. There is no "miracle" design that stops poop from stinking. Trelino - is a no, imho. That leaves the Cuddy and NH. The NH has a much stronger fan than the Cuddy, and that is a huge plus. And it's better made than either of the others. (Rotationally molded). But the Cuddy has a bigger chute (less clean up), and is cheaper. The Cuddy is smaller (good), but it has a lot less capacity (bad). You don't want to empty a toilet more often than necessary. Capacity matters. And the Nature's Head has the most capacity - by far. Up to 60 poops! The Cuddy people say you don't have to ventilate it, but I have one and in my opinion you need to ventilate it. Or there is some odor upon opening the lid. The Separett Tiny is another good choice and has a powerful fan. Too bad the Thinktank toilet is too big for vans or boats, because it checks all the boxes.

This was an amazing comment! I couldn’t agree more. We are big fans of the NH we’ve used it for years and will continues to use it for years ahead. But money talks and the Cuddy gives you good bang for your buck in comparison to what you get from the Trelino. Yes ventilation is key! I recommend venting 10/10!

Hey kookz. I can only imagine what you're feeling after parting with the van. But life is all about change right? I will say that some of my best memories are going on van trips with my kids as they were growing up. Don't be afraid to get out and adventure with the baby. We did 4-week van trips when each of my kids were only a few months old! Fun to see the Team Cletus sticker in a few scenes too! Good luck and best wishes!

I’m a bit confused about your wire size from your battery to the inverter. You said you’re using #4 from the battery to the inverter. That’s ( if it’s thhn) only good for 95 amps. A 12 volt battery feeding a 2000 watt inverter could produce 166 amps (2000/12=166.6). sounds like #4 would be inadequate. Why would a person use a 200 amp fuse with wire that’s only rated at 95 amps? Maybe I’m missing something.

New chapters are always fun! I bet selling the van was a bit emotional in a good way. I am looking at your van building course online, if I understand it correctly the "van conversion masterclass" course includes both the "power your van" and the "DIY van conversion" courses, plus a few other extra tutorial's?
