if the pump is $22.32 to replace, and assuming the back up float switch costs around $5 and the black plastic mounting brackets around $10 total, that is a $157 optical sensor we are talking about that isn't 100% fail safe. (but better than anything else out in the market)

A typical optical sensor will run you around $80 this assumes you could find one in that price range that will run vertical most will not, combine that with the $20 pump, float all brackets, power adapter and electronic controller. $200 isnt a big price to pay for something pnp. I doubt anyone could save more than $10 duplicating the tunze diy.
Been there done that. Its pretty hard to beat, the tunze.
