FJGuard,

According to the website, the unit draws 15 amps. So it would be like running a roof AC; you will need to start the generator. Newell could advise you on whether or not the inverter could run it. I would think that it could, but it would run your batteries down quickly.

BTW, these units are on sale for $1829!

While I would love to have one of these units, I have been camping for about 20 years and I don't see a problem with using a conventional toilet. I use a little Clorox after I dump the waste tank, and that usually kills any bacteria that causes odors. Be careful not to pour Clorox directly in the toilet; it can damage the rubber seal on the flap. I just pour it down the sink; it all winds up in the sewer tank anyway.
