Hi All

As we have a lot of brain power and skill on here,
 I think it is important we continue to complete the simple jobs on Stans parts and ideas

After watching this video I was reminded of the important of this work and
the simple things which motivate us all.

Position 35.30  

====================================
You will see many great detail of the water gauges
can we post basic circuits for this that will work for level and to illuminate LEDS
and latter we can include water temp  

Job it is to do
1 read water level sent to gauge or leds via electrode style pickup 5-6
2 Read water temp
3 turn on and off refill pump. (if connecting to cell as a secondary use of circuit)

BONUS Wild Card is measure the capacitance of cell if connected in that way!!.



I hope this is  done quick for the  excitement of all  it help all
progress and be motivated

some links to start

Electrode Type Level Switch concept


small project


Remember the Simple things are just as important

I will post more advanced off shelf ones as I get them
invite you to do same

Hope some one can advance this and post for simple week end build
replication

Ahh yes can we advance it here

I think it has  opportunity





Like this little design

Stan's original WFC and a circuit which is probably close to what he used.

Very simple.

Motor home & travel trailer manufactures use a similar type circuit for the levels of gray and waste water holding tanks. :idea:
