Does anyone know how I might make a float switch auto shut off for my skimmer cup. It would be like what’s in the link below but with a float switch. I can’t seem to find one online but there are plenty of sump pump float switches that do the opposite of what I want.

Not sure if it’s too late but I found this on an old thread here they sell one if you don’t have a controller like an apex http://autotopoff.com/
