Thetford 92306 Porta Potti 565E (Electric) Portable Toilet, White-Grey, 448 x 388 x 450 mm

This portable campervan toilet is made by Thetford, a well-known and trusted name within the touring world. When you push the pump button, it makes an electric pumping noise that is louder than the manual version. With the manual pump I had on my 365 model, I could pump harder or softer depending on what I needed. The softer you pump it the quieter it is. If you are up in the middle of the night and someone else is sleeping, you can pump it softly and barely even hear it. The flushing system on the 565e is a simple process and of course, made easier with the electric flush. The first step in flushing the toilet is to pump water into the bowl. You simply push the electric flush button and water will flow into the bowl. Manually operated piston pump for flushing the toilet; it is light, easy to use and ensures powerful flushing

The vent button on the waste-holding tank prevents unpleasant splashing during emptying – phew! The stopper on the waste-holding tank conveniently holds the emptying spout in position, making re-attachment of the two tanks even easier.
