So far so good. I like the construction of it. It's definitely powerful. What's the distance you are trying to put it through?

Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
A discussion on ATO choices, advice appreciated

May I ask who is AO?
Aquatic Obsessions
Thank you
Check out the Avast ATO. That thing is flawless.
I use this with a digital output to apex or you can use standard outlet.

Combined with this. I lift water 10 ft and run it 30 ft across the ceiling to my display. I’ve replaced the pump once in 9 years !!! Diaphragm Pump

Custom Pressure Switch Builder
This is the pressure switch portion of our Legacy ATO, new Parrot ATO & Davy Jones' Skimmate Locker products. Includes the switch box with along with the pressure sensor tube(s) and tubing. We have seen a lot of creative uses for these over the years, from water storage tanks to overflow...

SoaB! That's what started this thread. I have this system in my main an LOVE it.
When I went looking at their ATO section, this wasn't listed as a main ATO, just the 'new improved' version with the float system, etc...
Didn't realize they downgraded it and buried it a bit down the page, making it not look like an ATO.
I did go with the autotopoff.com dual float system for the redundancy, plus I'm having fun rewiring it for a secondary pump and a siphon system.
If this works after I mess with it I'll use it.
If it doesn't, I'm grabbing the Avast.
Really enjoying all the input in this thread as well, it would be a great sticky for ATO info.
Sticky done.
Hi all, just wanted to update this thread for time.
The autotopoff.com dual float system has been working flawlessly going on 2 years.
I pulled it to clean yesterday and the maintenance is minimal.
As much as I love the Avast system (that's in my main), I have no regrets purchasing this cheaper system.
Its kept the tank well and never had an alarm, overflow, or concern.
