My "gallon jug" bilge pump switch uses a hardware store household type
toggle switch that has a low force action. Spring pulls up, sand ballasted
jug pulls down. Works for years. I put the toggle switch in a plastic
handi-box with a electronics style booted toggle switch (spdt, center off)
in
Yes, I do get a little behind from time to time...
I thought about the second switch but took it one step farther and added
both the second switch, a second pump (with two check valves leading to the
same discharge pipe) and an alarm to tell me when this second pump came
into action.
