Dropping this reply from another 'motion activated trash can' on to this one as well. With a little soldering knowlege, you can wire these so you no longer have to worry about replacing batteries. My trash can is less than 6" away from an outlet and I had all the parts, so it was a no-brainer for me.

this is what I started with. it's a different model/voltage, and he uses a 6v DC power adapter, to match it up for his 6v model..
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Jc9dy3ohUA


I wired my trashcan to be USB powered, since using a voltmeter showed that my can required 1.5v in... I think this one runs at 6v like the video, so ymmv:

So... I've got USB connectors [amazon.com] and a USB male to USB male cable sitting around, which would be step 1. I bought a variety pack [amazon.com] for building other things. It came with Micro, which would make a little more sense for most people without a male to male cable on hand.

You just need to find the USB pinout for 5v+ and ground. Those get soldered to a buck converter [amazon.com] (mine came pre-labeled + and - on the underside), which will accept incoming voltage, and adjusts down via a Philips screw on the converters PCB. If you spring for the extra big ones [amazon.com], they have a little LCD screen on them that tells you the output voltage.

I soldered the output wires to the backside of the battery terminals. This allowed me to keep the PCB out of the way, and when I melted the window in the battery door, it sunk in the USB connector so it's actually out of the way of the batteries. I could unplug the USB from the back and run on batteries without any adjustments.
Here's where I love Slickdeals, (when I'm fiscally responsible) I've been procrastinating buying a new garbage since the ex moved out with the nicer trash can, (and using a trash can without a lid in the kitchen stinks) and here it is!

Then, lovely people comment on the fact that standard bags are actually 13 gallon, pointing out that the $35 deal is better, WITH a $1 filler, saving me from having to run another errand.

Thank you everyone!!
You'll be happy you spent the extra $5 when you see how hard it is to find 8 gallon bags. They exist, you just won't have all the options you have with 13 gallon bags (i.e. scented, drawstring, stretch material, etc.) Usually a single choice if they carry them at all.

Never bought a touchless trash can. Bit concerned on paying more for a touchless, only for it become a regular trash can. Any thoughts on Insignia brand? I noticed complaints on the Insignia brand air fryer, which we often find it on sale here.

Make sure you invest in rechargeable batteries because this thing DRAINS batteries in a month.

Quote from SumDuud :
I love my touchless garbage can. Dogs used to push the lid on my old one and get into the kitchen trash, since I went with a touchless I've not had any issues. It is also very handy for the kids not dripping crap all over the lid since they don't have to tough the lid to open it. Picking up a second for the office/craft room.

edit: I'm going with the 13g but I guess your use will determine what is better for you
You can use this with dogs?

That's not slick. That's being dishonest.

8 gallon is perfect for me even with bag availability low. I have a specific use. "Clean" medical packaging waste non harmful non bio so this is the perfect size for under my counter in the bathroom. Since it's clean trash it will give me a little extra time before having to take it out unlike the regular Mini sized trash basket we use. Thanks op.
