I'm surprised Tunze has offered this as their sensor eye setup is failsafe to near perfection, so why would they want to sully their name when this kind of unit causes negative feedback after they fail

For the record, I use 2 of their Osmolators and have found the float backup to be of great use
I have it setup to stop the pump in case of mutliple power outages/restarts as it will cut the pump power and not over fill
But I would never go without the sensor eye
Agreed. The optic sensor is 1000 times better and much safer. With the backup float, you're golden.

That being said... I hate their pumps. I replaced 3 pumps in 2 years. When my new build is all set up, I am going to get the 12V adapter so I can run a MaxiJet1200 instead.
