I have an A3 with 1 MOS optical sensor that I use for a low level sensor in my sump. I use a float valve for my fill, so that is a measure of safety if/when the MOS fails. I would like to at least monitor my ATO reservoir and depending on cost add a high level sensor to my sump, so I was looking for sensor alternatives. Aside from being out of stock everywhere they are also $40 each.
If it is a matter of converting the wiring to match the plug that Apex uses, that is not a problem. I run my existing 12v ATO pump off of the 24v accessory output on the EB832 (using a microfit connector, buck converter and barrel connector). My reservoir unfortunately does not lend itself to any sort of float sensor. It is a 5g water jug/container that I designed and printed a screw cap for that allows the wires and return tube in/out and a threaded opening for a 1/2" barb fitting for filling it. So a magnetic solution, that can fit through a 2" top opening, is needed. I will eventually replace this with a larger reservoir, perhaps an RV water tank, but for now it is what I have to work with. Thanks in advance.
