Sorry to keep the derailing going
all good

float switches in general .slow timered pumps just make me feel safer than a pump always on with sensor cut offs.

Ive never used the ATK, I had set my top off pump to stop before I left for work so If i could hear it walking out the door Id know there was a problem and on weekends I'm usually leaving to go diving about the same time.
Im a creature of habit so its very hard for me to wrap my head around changing when it has worked flawlessly for me.

the gears stripped in it finally but I got my moneys worth it didnt owe me anything.
