Has anyone figured out a way to use a single tunze osmolator on two separate, unplumbed tanks? Wondering if I can wire two water level sensors to a single brain/pump. Has anyone tried this?
 
If I did this I assume that the pump would fill both tanks at once rather than the one that is actually low. I wonder if I could wire two sensors/ two brains to a single pump?
 
Two sensors need two power sources. So with one pump a isolation relay would be needed for the pump, if both sensors called for water at the same time, fried pump.
