I made up a cheap and simple box to collect and drain the waste coming off my Coco pots if anyone's interested
There are commercially available set ups but the costs is a few hundred pounds. This set up is sub ?30
Any tupaware box
2 float level sensors
A small DC pump
Tank connectors
DPDT relay
Pots are made from cheal buckets cut down and tank connectors installed.
It's all plumber together with hoselock connectors and pipes for ease of use.
You do need to lift the pots just an inch so gravity takes the run off to the pump box. The pump then lifts the waste to whereever your drain is automatically.
The circuit is simple and just prevents the pump from constantly coming on by feeding back to itself
Let me know if you this is of any use to you and I can help source parts and talk through any bits of the build
I'm using a reservoir for feeding now which makes coco feeding a delight but this would work perfectly well with hand-fed. No more manual handling of run off!
