No it does not. They are two separate lines. See the picture below. Mossey

I fat fingered that post and you responded before I edited it. It now has the correct link in it and it is a different link than yours and I believe it was posted the next day. Mossey

SeaDawg Moderators Posted May 22 So, I came across this the other day-- Separett's new Tiny composting toilet. As toilets go, it's rather pretty and sleek. And small. But a big capacity. And, like all the other composting toilet, a pretty big price tag. Comes in two versions, with a urine hose, or with a urine tank. Vent adaptor from Swedish 50 mm to us 1.5 inch vent pipe. Seat height is about 3" lower than nature's head. I wonder if the odor from the fan would really be any worse than the odor from the nature's head fan, or the vent stack from the Oliver black tank? I'm sure I'll see it pop up on one of the youtuber sites soon. I saw this on the Air Forums and thought of you and your post about the Separett Tiny. https://www.airforums.com/forums/f446/part-l-tmi-review-of-the-separett-tiny-1270-01-a-224421.html Mossey

That door mat sure looks like a putting green to me. So I guess you practice putting when the fish aren’t biting. I think that’s great idea and you know I’m a big fan of multiple uses for items I carry while camping.😆 Mossey

You are correct, that is the temperature switch. Mossey

While I was troubleshooting my external refrigerator fan failure last year I found that the temperature switch was the point of failure. So I would suggest checking the voltage going to the fan first. If there isn’t any voltage at the fan, try by-passing the temperature switch before replacing the fan. I did replace my fan while I was replacing the temperature switch because it had become noisy. I didn’t use the same brand/model of fan. The fan I used had a higher RPM rating the original and it was also very noisy and required a PWM speed controller to slow it down to make it’s noise level adjustable. These are the replacement parts I used.

Raspy, It’s good to hear from you on the Ollie forum. I often see your posts on the Fiberglass RV forum and it reminds me of the conversation about tire pressure you, topgun2 and I had at the OTT rally. And while staying at a Florida SP on my way to the non rally we had this year, I had the opportunity to tour a HQ19 in person. I saw it when I was heading to my site and the owner came over while I was setting up. I gave him a tour of the Ollie and then found out that he was in the Black Series. So he invited me over for a tour and it was quite a trailer. The owner was from Florida and quite happy with his experiences so far. Just when I got to see your new trailer, you are going to get another. So I’ll have to keep my eyes open for your new one. Congratulations, Mossey

Krunch and I nearly finished "Where the Crawdads Sing” on our way home from Illinois this week, about 2 hours to go. I have some audible credits to use so I’ll check out the books mentioned in this thread. Unlike RB, I don't listen to anything heavy while driving. If I miss something in a non fiction book, it’s too distracting for me to find it while driving and fiction allows me to fill in the blanks instead of going back. I like pure entertainment whIle cruising down the road. And real books always put me to sleep so they take forever to finish and it’s much easier to find the place I reached before I feel asleep. Anything by W.E.B. Griffin, Lee Child, Michael Connelly fills my time while driving. While Ken Follett has some very good historical fiction books. And Sherry, I do believe "historical fiction" qualifies as an oxymoron. Mossey

The spring arm Mike is referring to is highlighted in the picture. Mossey

I used my white ones for a template and let the roll heat up some in the sun. Then cut them to length and they fit perfectly. After about 2 months they were all about an inch too short, so having some extra was a good thing for me. If I did it again, I would cut them long and force them in the corners better than my original attempt. If you are replacing all of the white window seals on an LE2, I think your measurements are short. Using your measurements, I come up with 205" or rounding up to 18'. Curb side bed window = 60" Street side bed window = 60" Dinette window = 60" Bathroom window =25" Mossey

Although I am not a composting toilet owner at this time it is something I have thought about. The big reason is probably that the Minister of Finance is not in favor of any expenditures for "the dog house". And of course her involvement in dumping consist of operating the black tank flush valve and adding Calgon and Dawn to the tank when dump and flush are complete. And since she is short in stature, the composting toilets all seem a little tall for her. I guess my biggest concern is probably waste disposal and that seems to be a dirty little secret that doesn’t get discussed much. SeaDawg's link for the Separett Tiny was very interesting and would certainly be a candidate for me. The Tiny's manual suggest placing the #2 bags someplace for 12 months and then adding them to my normal household compost bins. I always thought I would handle it like a dirty diaper and maybe place it in the trash, but I really not sure of the proper procedure. Anyone who would like to share their disposal process, please chime in. I am still partial to the Sun-Mar GTG which is very similar the the Tiny in appearance and footprint, but does seem to be engineered with less potential part failures in my opinion. Both seem to have an easier maintenance program than the Nature’s Head toilet, but I have never dumped any of these models, so I am not speaking from experience. What do actual NH owners think of their experience compared to the possible use and maintenance of either the Separett Tiny or the Sun-Mar GTG? And since I have only thought about the vent plumbing of the GTG and I am not fond of the NH vent appearance, does anyone have knowledge of the standard toilets vent plumbing and would there be clearance above the black tank for a vent running from a composting toilet to the vanity area? Mossey

It has been my experience that a fat wallet leads to low back problems, so my advice is to get 2 wallets and share the pain. And it does help with elevating back pain.😉 Mossey

I updated the Drawer Lock post: I used the 5 lb. pull latch. I updated the Amazon link in the original post. I guess the supplier no longer offers the 5 lb. version and the original link pointed to an 8 lb. pull latch. Mossey

Thanks for the update. It’s always a happy day when you buy something on sale and it meets your expectations. Mossey

Sometimes moisture/water in the trailer side of the 7 way plug will cause phantom light issues. It is worth looking at. I always hang my plug with the plug-in connection pointing down to prevent moisture problems. Mossey

The stock MaxxFan screen is similar to a no-see-ums screen door. It's really not a filter, it’s a screen. Mossey

They will be available at the non-rally, see you there.

A few years ago, topgun2 created a filter for his MaxxFan that I really liked, but the frame material he used was no longer available. Although this is my version below, it is similar to his. So I kept it in the back of my mind and often looked at different materials to create my own. I tried some vinyl channel that was used in shower glass installations, but it was too flexible. My next version was metal channel that I am unsure of it’s purpose, it worked pretty well, but I kept cutting my hands on the mitered corners. Then I found some plastic or PVC channel at Lowe’s while shopping for PVC lumber and it worked pretty well. This is the frame material from Lowe’s. I removed the round screen filter and stored it somewhere I might be able to find or maybe not. I measured the fan frame and cut the channel to size. Then I cut some sheet aluminum into triangles and glued up the frame using the triangles for corner supports. Then the filter material was cut to size and inserted into the slot and then Velcro Command picture hanging strips were used to hold the filter frame to the MaxxFan frame. This resulted in gaps between the frames which I filled with leftover filter material. The result is a removable filter that can be washed and reused and the fan blades require less cleaning. He recently saw my version and asked me to post it for you to see it and improve upon for your own needs. Mossey

I was able to reuse the Zamp CC hole to mount the display/RPi with industrial Velcro. The wall thickness blocks two of the four USB ports and I would probably separate the display and RPi which would allow access all four USB ports. I have taken a peak at the tank sensor issue and there is some mention of the SeeLevel sensors on the the Victron support pages, but the Venus software is provided by Victron free of charge and it is open source they do not provide much development on non Victron products. If SeeLevel tank sensors are supported, it seems like it will be done by the Victron community. I seem to remember some talk about an interface between the Victron and SeeLevel sensors, but I am not positive. I will work on a parts list of the products I used instead of what I bought. I'm not very good at planning so I generally bump my head a lot as I work through issues. So I purchased some items I didn’t use and some items that I would have needed with a CCGX or Cerbo GX installation, like VE.Direct to USB Interfaces.

I have 10 7" wire tethers that I saved from some shop lites that I used for a front access hatch lid tether. I replaced one of the flange mounting screws with a nut, bolt and washer and I used a self tapping screw and washer on the lid. I brought them to the 2019 rally for a swap meet that I don’t think happened and they will be with me at the non-rally. Mossey

I initially used the touchscreen for system setup. And I have made changes through the VRM remote console, but the touchscreen is much easier to use. Mossey

No they are not open because of COVID, but Kim the HH invited us to stay anyway. She was very gracious and stopped by the evening of our stay to make sure everything was ok. It was disappointing that we couldn’t go inside and see the church and what they had done to it. It was different staying in a downtown area but it was convenient to the interstate we came in on. Mossey

I believe I can do anything that the standard CCGX or the Cerbo GX and GX Touch can do. Since I have never had a chance to play with a CCGX, I’m not really sure. And I only have a MPPT CC and a BMV, so I can only see the DC side of things. You tell me if it looks like any functionality is missing. The missing data is while out camping as I don’t have any connectivity without WiFi and my storage solution didn’t work, so it’s back to the drawing board. Mossey

Nope! That is a Raspberry Pi Foundation 7" display with a Raspberry Pi 3B+ single board computer running the 2.60 version of Victron's Venus open source software. Mossey
