Hey guys so im going to a slightly bigger tank over the next few days. I currently have a duetta 2 that ive had extremely grest luck with. I am going hydros and the launch I got came with the triple optical sensor ato. Has any onr ran this ato?
 
Yes. I have experience with both the duetto2 and Hydros ATOs.

My duetto2 pump died a little after a year. Take that for what it is. I bought a replacement pump and have continued to use it.

My Hydros ATO has been great. I got it with the simple level sensor. I bought the three optical sensor to try, but I haven’t cared too much for it. It’s a bit too sensitive for my use. My ATO will cause it to report overfill after filling. This is likely an application problem not an issue with the sensor. I will probably move back to the basic sensor and use the 3 sensor for a sump high water alarm.
