Some stuff takes longer to grind up than other stuff I guess.
:worthless: "Better"
I bet the pumps run for the same time every time, unless you are running water while it is running, you can check that.

What's the big deal if a little water is left at the end of a timed cycle. it will just be picked up next cycle...unless you're dumping you're whole hot tub at once. In that case a new cycle would just start right away.Actually a timer would be a good idea as a backup shut off system. Start a timer at the beginning of pump and then add 30 seconds to the normal time for running water. If the timer isn’t cleared shut it down and sound the alarm. The high level alarm would warn of pump not working and the timer would warn of a float malfunction.

You actually want water left you never want to run it dry. Thats why I got worried when the float got stuck it was just pumping on a dry sump.
That first post you had is very well how they do it without a relay. Just putting the contacts in series I think would do just that. Great idea. If it works like that all I need is another single float and use the one I have for the other.
