Video View of The Pay Toilet Without a Hole

Today I decided to shoot a video of a 10p pay toilet. You can’t see the outside very well as there isn’t enough lighting but I’ll get a photo of the outside instruction board in the day. As you put the 10p in the slot the door opens and the usage indicator shows as “Engaged” once you step inside the weight detector on the floor will detect the weight and the door will close. From the inside there is no lock as it shows on the outside it is in use, and it won’t let anyone in from the outside. You can leave at anytime by holding the handle and it slides open again, but once it is opened you have to leave. If you stay in there you have the risk of getting wet during the cleaning cycle but the door can be opened if you force it. The sign on the door tells you how long you have in there (15 minutes) , how to get out and not to forget to take anything when you leave. The second sign on the wall tells you that after each use the walls and seat of the heated cubical are automatically cleaned and disenfected. Next along would be the toilet paper dispenser … nothing much to say about that except there seemsto be limited paper supply, and it’s difficult to pull out. The ‘No Smoking’ sign is found in all toilets, as it is now illegal to smoke inside a public place or where someone works. Now, the toilet bowl is a funny thing. There is no hole, and the thing to sit on is odd. It’s all disenfected and scrubbed though. It flushes by tipping back into the main control thing. The

    They are pretty interesting to see, automatic flushing afterwards. The downside is that you can’t see the flush. But quite useful when you need to go to the toilet. I can see them making a lot of money off these when the olympic games are there.
