Toilet BBQ: Cooking on the hot seat
Remember how funny it used to be when someone would leave a bag of flaming poop on a doorstep, and then The EcoJohn is kind of like that, but not really. It's a toilet that doesn't use water- it uses fire, and you don't have to stomp on it (unless that's your thing).
Basically, once the user does that voodoo that they do they shut the lid of the toilet "and a large, screw-like auger turns and carries the waste to the burn chamber where the propane burner then bakes urine, feces and paper into ashes."
Ashes to ashes and all that.
As Stefan Johansson says, "Toilets haven't really changed for the past 100 years. People are always looking for better products, better solutions. The EcoJohns are better, cleaner and good for the environment."
That makes it a winner.
Here's what makes it awesome: The EcoJohn Sr. is a waterless, incinerating toilet certified for safety by Underwriters Laboratories, which, for classification purposes, called it a barbecue.
Yes, it's classified as a barbecue.
We don't recommend using it as one.
