I need to provide a simple, remote reading, water level indication system for my under-home water storage system, I am building. Any thoughts and experiences on a suitable sensor? Maximum depth of the water will be approximately 1.5 Metres (maybe 1.8, if I can be bothered digging a few more Tonnes of dirt) I thought of the logical ones:
*A float on the end of a long arm, with a pot. *A row of contacts, arranged vertically.Naturally, accuracy is not that important. The boss just needs to have some kind of idea of how much water is left and how much is being used, when she waters the garden.
FWIW, the total amount of water involved will be between 8kL - 10kL.
