"Porta Potty"
Ever been caught short? Wouldn't you like to inflate your own toilet where ever you are, without getting bogged down with finding yet another out of order public loo?
Would you use this? Wouldn't you bang your head? Is it a Godsend or a load of cr**?

More to the point, if you were desperate enough to consider using the thing, could you hold it in long enough to erect it?

That is a pitfall in an otherwise great idea!

How long does it take to deploy the hygiene bubble?
When you want to the use the indipod, a hygiene bubble is deployed around the toilet. This takes about 30 seconds and the indipod is then ready to use.

From The FAQs
Not too long to wait really, if you give yourself less than 30 seconds to drop trou and go then you deserve what you receive

Re: "Porta Potty"
Porta potty is nowt new, I had one (when going camping) when I was 9
Neither is an inflatable tent, they have been around for years.
However...
I wonder what the responce would be if you had to suddenly stop at the side of the motorway to go & put this up?

Unless of course you have the shopping from Tesco and 2 prams in the boot....
Can you imagine what you would look like? Car swerves suddenly to the kerb. Stops. Man runs from drivers seat clutching groin. Opens the boot and removes 2 prams and 4 bags of shopping. Dumps them on the pavement and inflates a large tent in the boot. Then proceeds to climb in the boot and presumably shuts it behind him. Loud wind sounds are then heard to those outside of the car and 4 mins later man tries to get out.....and can't because he has left his keys in the ignition.....
And thats saying nothing about the smell for the young kids in the rear seat....
Sounds like a Little Britian sketch....

Re: "Porta Potty"
That might not be far from the truth as most boots you can't open from the inside....

Could be embarrasing  Wonder if it has one of those manual inflation valves on the inside..... "In case of emergency blow here...... quickly"

Re: "Porta Potty"
Nah, it would most proberably be on the outside, where someone else can deflate it
Not something to be using on a windy day.....

Just think of the pressure on the lungs to inflate it? I can sense a nasty accident in the pants coming on....

Re: "Porta Potty"
Maybe it could have a methane converter that autoinflates it the more you go?
