RO/DI install ?'s

Well figure 4 flushes a day. That's is a gallon. Which is about equal to my evaporation. So no I only need to handle water changes. I have two thoughts on how to handle this.

1) Place a weight on the float switch in the back of the toiler. All waste water will go down the drain and it will quit when the RO container is full. Disadvantage is a waste of water.
2) Tee the waste line and place a valve on the second line. I can then open it and waster water can flow into a 5 gallon bucket or other container. Disadvantage is you need to remember to shut it off of course I guess you could add a 3rd float switch.

As I said this is a work in progress. The washing machine doesn't work for me since I have a front loader. And my lawn doesn't need water right now. Hmm maybe an ice rink. Seriously I am looking for a good use, but have yet to find a better one. I followed a thread, but it became dormant that had some interesting ideas, but none worked for me.
 
After weighing my options and not really wanting to cut into my pipe at this time I have found a larger saddle valve that will work with my 3/4" pipe, so I think I may go that route for the time being. If the saddle valve starts to leak then I will have found my answer and cut the pipe and tee it off with a valve and set it up properly. I am waiting on my TDS meter and tubing to come from BRS and then it's time to install.

I thank you all for all the tips and help. I will let you know how it goes!:beer:
