Anyone using their system? Looks good but I'd like to know of the quality.

My DIY ato just died on me so need to replace. I have a RKL and I know they can be used as ato but the parts needed Are too expensive

Any reviews on auto topoff.com are appreciated

If you already have an RKL... if you own the SL1 all you need is a float sensor(s) and a pump.

My relay died after a year or two. Plus, it was loud. You could easily hear it kicking on each time. Most people like them, though.

Make sure to buy the model with two float switches.

Simple setup, the build quality is good imo. I use it while making water for water changes.

My relay died after about a year. I opened it up and it was rusted inside. That may just be an isolated incident. It worked fine until then.

If I get the sl1 is it only compatible with digital aquatics float switches?

Going w sl1 is only $20 more than ato.com but the DA floats are pushing it

bought one from them about 2 years ago... still running strong on my current tank =)

If you get the SL1 order floats thru madison about $10 ea for m8000 (one of the better switches out there). Order molex micro 3.0 connectors from digi-key or any good electronics supplier. I made a bracket out of some plexiglass I had laying around. Cost me about $25 for 2 float setup that plugs right in.

i had one for 8 years now; no problems with floats or switches - I did seal the top and any holes in the black box with rubberized silicone and mounted about 6" from sump - if you need to repair the silicone will just peal off

I love mine - makes topping off so easy

I've been using one for 6 months now. Double float. No problems.
