Necroing an old thread here... Blue sky option for now, but maybe one day this will exist:

I think much like an incinerating toilet can burn up all your liquid and solid waste, it would be great to have incinerating waste tanks. Obviously, this doesn't exist yet, but it would be a lot nicer to press a button to burn the contents of the tank rather than go to a dump station. You could run it once a week say, when you're not intending to be home. (even the incinerator toilets stink when they burn after each use, so I would prefer to collect a week at a time and then get rid of it all at once, instead of little mini burns)

Of course, the thought of fuel costs for a propane fired incinerator tank, and the risk of burning your stream down will need to be worked on.

The other option is to have some kind of high speed fan that evaporates things, like one of the better compost toilets does, maybe you could do that at least for the grey tank. It might not keep it from filling, but maybe it would fill it slower.

Motion sensor lights for the exterior could be handy too, in case you have critters wandering around outside, to scare them away. And the ability to run your running lights off the battery, just for a little outside light at night out in the wild. Do the new ones already do this? I know you can get a kit for this, but it seems it would be easier to just flip a switch for it.

Where did you end up having your 4 batteries located? Are two in the factory box and two located elsewhere?

That's definitely an advantage of the front bedroom.
