Frequently asked questions

  • WHAT POWER DOES AN OGO™ ORIGIN NEED? WHY DOES IT NEED POWER?
    OGO™ Compost Toilet runs on a 12v DC power system. Most Off-Grid lifestyles still have some power source to run essentials. Whether you have a deep cycle battery and/or utilising one of the many alternative power sources, OGO™ Compost Toilet can be easily wired to the source or you can buy a power adapter for a 240V outlet.

    As to why power is required, it is due to the automatic agitation system and venting fan. Anyone that has used a composting toilet system knows hand cranking can become a problem within itself. So, with a small 12V motor and a push of a button no more headache of hand cranking.

    See our in-depth article on the OGO’s electrical system.
