GEEZO!Talk about over complicating stuff!! Tap on the side with a lil hammer....When it goes thump thump instead of boom boom, thats where the water line is....When no water comes out the bottom drain? Its empty.....Algae? Put a lil clorox in it once in a while...Ask your Mexican neighbor about this High Tech stuff...

I like my solution much more as it is highly sophisticated. Mainly the part with the camera and the bracket screwed onto the pillar. And you got to have a diver for holding the counter thread anyway!!!:lol:

Anybody have pics/vid/ links of how they set up toilet float system for knowing how full/empty tank is? Some time ago someone said they had done it.


2 pullies, 1 line, one float, one weight, one bracket, and bob's your uncle.

This will tell water level in tank. The equation for volume of cylinder will can you how many gallons per inch of tank height. Use a sharpie to write gallon scale on side of tank.
You can engineer this yourself, or buy a kit.

I think the Goat has the best response.

Now, all I need is to instal a tinaco in the front yard....just to keep the Baja vibe going up here in the frozen wastelands... and to confuse the neighbours.

They are very popular around my part of California as well. Local cannabIs growers would rather do that than drill a well, or get caught stealing water they have no rights to. Kind of a flashback to the mining days!

And no, I will not be bringing any samples of the local product to anyone!

Water tank day from Muzik Mountain Canyon (above Burro) to the Mulege tank fill up was a daylong adventure every time. A hot shower after 3 days of Baby Wipes felt awesome.

What exactly is it that you want to say?? Can you please translate your thoughts into proper language - preferable "Oxford English". 1. What does Babe Wipes has to do with the Mulege Water tank?
2. Is there a water supply line from Burro to Mulege??
3. Is that you who has to control the valve at Burro???
4. If there is a waterline from Burro to Mulege, but no chance at all to catch some drops for the sweat????
5. What has the SAPA supply cut off to do with what you are posting?????
