Day 10: We Said Goodbye to the Blackwater Tank Blues
I’ve spent years designing trailers—and there’s one part of RV life that’s never sat right with me: the blackwater tank.
You know the drill. Chemicals. Flushing. Finding a dump station. Watching a hose of waste snake through your hands while praying for a tight seal. It’s unpleasant at best—and a total deal-breaker for a lot of people who’d otherwise love this lifestyle.
So, we dumped it.
The CyberTrailer PRO eliminates the black water system entirely. In its place? A gas-powered incineration toilet that reduces waste to sterile ash.
It’s called the Cinderella Travel, and it’s a complete shift in how you manage one of life’s most basic functions off-grid.
Here’s how it works:
You use the toilet as usual. When you’re done, you close the lid and start the cycle. Using a high-efficiency propane burner, the unit incinerates all solid and liquid waste at high temperatures, leaving behind only a small pile of clean, odorless ash. About once a week, you empty the tray. That’s it.
No water. No tanks. No dumping. No stink.
And no smell—because the system is fully vented, sealed, and designed for enclosed spaces. A catalytic filter handles odor, and the internal bag system keeps everything contained until it’s gone.
For off-grid living, this is a game-changer.
Think about what it eliminates:
- No need for sewer hookups…
- No dump station worries…
- No risk of leaks or overflows…
- No winterizing fears…
- No guessing how full the tank is…
- No black tank odors. Ever.
You don’t just get a cleaner, more straightforward setup—you get more space, better autonomy, and far less complexity. One 20 lb. propane tank can run up to 60 burn cycles, meaning extended stays without needing to resupply. And since the system uses no water, you conserve one of your most precious off-grid resources.
It’s also more hygienic. There are no moving parts inside the bowl. No water spray. No chemicals. No cross-contamination. And nothing to freeze in winter. Just press a button, and poof! it’s gone.
Every system in the CyberTrailer should solve a real problem, and the incineration toilet doesn’t just solve a problem—it eliminates an entire category of them.
If you’ve ever dreaded the blackwater tank dance—or avoided this lifestyle because of it—this might be the one feature that changes everything.
