Only photo I could find of illuminated light was this one:
Into the 'Too Much Information' sector!!! - My loo typically takes 3-4 days use (just me, no 1s and 2s, and probably the only loo I'll use during my trips, to get 'full'. With the bowl flap open, you can see directly into the tank, and the level of it's contents, that gives you a good idea of how close to 'full' you are. You will get used to the actual level that is 'full' with experience, but it's maybe a couple of inches (50mm) below the flap.
You may of course not want to wait until waste tank is full, it has a 17.5L capacity, plus the weight of the tank itself, it'll weigh around 20Kg or so full, which you may need to carry (dragging on it's wheels over rough terrain may damage wheels/tank!), and may need to lift to around waist height to empty at many camp sites.
The 'full' indicator may of course not actually work! They are known to be a little troublesome! Sometimes they fail to illuminate for a number of corrosion/connection problems with the wiring, sometimes they won't go out after the tank is emptied because the float in the tank has become jammed with 'debris'! Always pays to 'peer down the hole' when you suspect level may be getting full, rather than rely entirely on the warning light!
.... and when emptying the tank, DONT shake too vigorously when rinsing, you can dislodge or jam the internal float that activates the full light! Usually a easy cost free fix, but does involve sticking a hand INSIDE the tank .... and who wants to do that!
