![]() I am planning to order some replacement iFloat level switches for my auto top-off system. If anyone is interested in joining my order, please let me know. They are $6.99 USD each, plus $11.99 USD per order shipping. If anyone else is interested we could split the shipping cost.

![]() There is a canadian ebay seller who has float switches for $5 each and $10 shipping (plus shipping discounts for multiple items). I just ordered 4 from him, they havent arrived yet but they look like a good unit. http://stores.shop.ebay.ca/AquaKits__W0QQ_armrsZ1

![]() They are suppose to arrive tomorrow but we'll see. I plan on wiring one of them up to my Neptune ACIII and programming it to prevent the tank from ever overflowing.

![]() My daughter wants to make her own ATO switch for her tank.
Is this feasible? What compnents etc are required and where does one find out how to build them? I assume they would be cheaper than the tunze osmoliters and do the same thing. Thanks. |

![]() A simple ATO can be made with no electronic parts for about $20 using a float valve gravity fed from a container holding fresh water.
If she really wants an electronic system there doesnt seem to be much in this forum about DIYing one yourself. I suggest starting a new thread in the DIY section so that maybe someone else will chime in and point you in the right direction.

![]() My switches arrived today from the ebay seller. Everything was in good condition and I've already got one of them wired and programmed to my ACIII. I bought 4 (1 by auction and 3 as BIN) and the average CDN price for each including shipping was $7.80
