most of you probably already know but.... I just installed my new Osmo 3. didn't read the instructions yet but things to note for those upgrading. they have an odd plug adapter. It makes it easier to fit the block into a strip but almost looks like the prongs should unfold out too. The controller box is gone since the operational lights are just above the sensor in the sump on the sensor. the pump itself I had read was louder than the 2 in other threads. absolutely NOT. You can't even tell it's running. but the intake is on the side vs the bottom so you will not get all the way down in your top off tank. There also appears to be no audible alarm to warn you on levels. but, I didn't yet read the instructions so there might be an alert that goes to an app on the phone which I'm assuming there is. I just needed to hook it up now to avoid adding water throughout the day.
here's some picks if that made no sense.
new style plug with adaptor"
New pump pulls water from side:
Old pump pulled water from lowest point"
no more controller box:
Just lights for on, off etc:
parts included:
