LF JBJ ATO Sensor

[Mael]

Scored a 3month old JBJ unit on ebay for $20 but it is coming with only 1 sensor, so I wanted to see if anyone happened to have one they would like to sell. If not I will do a DIY or buy it new.

thx

Do you mean the float switch?

I would not worry about the second float switch. Generally ato pumps are less than ten dollars, so if you burn one up no big deal. I have had mine run dry a time or two and I have never had a pump go out on me.

yes in this case the switch/sensor wire assembly that plugs into the head un it.

Rippin, good to know, I will probably end up running it that way at least at first, and even JBJ has a setup option using only 1 switch in the manual so it should be good at least for now.

I run my JBJ in mode 1 with 1 sensor. I have a bc29 and have my sensor in chamber 3. It pulls from a 5gal bucket under the tank with an aqualifter.

Thanks again, I went ahead and ordered their smaller pump since it will only need to top off 1-2 gallons per day of evap.

Appreciate the help guys.
