They are at the back of the tank and will be hidden behind the LR. the only whey they will be visible is if you look down from the top of the tank.

No I am going to be using the programmable wall switch timer's that have a built in battery back up. Catherine is selling some and is holding them until I can get to Calgary to pick them up. I have the one's in the pic on my 155 BF and they are a pain in the but, as we have power flicker often out on the acreage.
