I recently fitted one of these electric wonder loos and what a disappointment.
Firstly, if you have an anti syphon loop, which you would if you have a monohull, the foul water may splash back when flushing, so you have to be sure to close the lid quickly and then clean it after flushing.
Secondly, the adverts say "almost silent operation"!!! Well, maybe so if you happen to be deaf. A big ships fog horn would be quieter than mine! Not fun when you sneak to the loo in the night and wake everyone up when flushing.
Thirdly, after about 10 proper uses it blocked. You have to completely dismantle it to clear the blockage which you will find at the outlet elbow from the macerator. This elbow is only about 19mm dia and the rest of the pipework is 38mm!! And yes, i do have the cheap thin loo paper. This is a job not to be missed. I found it particularly more pleasurable in a rolling sea 30 miles off shore en route to Ostend!
Maybe i just have a duff one and maybe they upgraded it after selling me mine! Maybe I got more of a ****ty deal than i was looking for.
