Mike dont even go there... That pump is LOUD! I have one and ditch it right away... Now it's collecting dust.. Look for another option.
I dont think you have much wiggle room with water level on this setup. You need to make splash shields on the floats or it may short cycle the pump!
this is a good find! I had never seen or heard avast was making a better version of the aqualifter!! This is great the aqualifter has serious head pressure problems sometimes.
Isn't the whole point to maintain a consistent water level? And I planned on using a time delay in the programming to prevent short cycling. I whipped this up at work yesterday (on my lunch break of course) and plan to mount it into the sump this morning.

That'll work fine, but I agree with Cy that you'd want the switch adjusted a little higher. With mine, I should of gone with two separate brackets, but I got lazy.
The way that switch will work is if the switch at the bottom drops, it'll turn on your ATO, once it floats up it'll shut it off. On the other switch, if the switch rises (due to bottom switch getting stuck), then it'll turn off the ATO.

Did you already buy it? You could try purchasing two separate brackets with switches to have a little more control on the water level.
On my setup, I wish the top switch was higher so I could send an email when it rises to alert me. But what ends up happening is that when I turn off my return and the switch rises, it'll send me an email. But it's not because the first switch failed, it's just cause my return was off. If I could put it higher, I wouldn't get that false alarm.
Looks good. How are you going to attach it to the sump?
Thanks Mike. As for now I'm using some Velcro. Not exactly a long term solution but until I get things dialed in it should work. I'll make another one of these with a mounting bracket on top and some thumb screws to hold it down.
Be careful with velcro, the saltwater might affect the adhesive.

Yea... I did a thing...
I love spam musubi. Portuguese sausage musubi is good too. Hawaii you can get it at 7-11.
