 +==== Toilets ====
 +
 +There are a few options of toilets. Bucket with toilet-like lid. Cassette, real plumbing with black tank, composting toilet, incinerator toilet.  More?

 +  * Wrappon - A toilet that wraps it up for you - https://4thdsolar.com/products/wrappon-green-toilet-value-pack
 +
 +I had this idea to drag a light trailer behind the van to use as storage and toilet. It could have its own solar panel, fan etc. Might be kinda nice for some trips. Others it wouldn't matter.
