Yes, my catalogue has that as $117.50 - with 2/3rds of the cost in the
sender! Any reason not to use the Mitchell brand at $69.15? Much heavier?
Unreliable? Made of unobtainium? There's no weight given for Mitchell,
against the 4oz of the Westach, and also it looks like they can't be
internally illuminated.
I assume the water detection capability would apply to any capacitance-type
sender.
