Neptune LLS Mag Mount

[Bada Bing]

Who knows when Neptune will have a magnetic mount for the new LLS so, off to Tinkercad we go. Here's an STL that you can tweak as you like. This mount reuses one of the magnetic mounts from an optical sensor. Like me, you may have an available optical sensor now that you have an LLS. Simply unscrew the clip from the magnet then superglue (or whatever) the wet side of the magnet into the back hole of the mount. Pics are of first mock-up and fit, printing a more pretty one as I write.

This was designed to hold the new Neptune Apex LLS and it utilizes the magnetic mount used for Apex optical sensors.This object was made in Tinkercad. Edit it online https://www.tinkercad.com/things/hqXOiftZYmo

At MACNA they had prototype but had not said when available

I’m not so comfortable with any magnetic mounted sensors as they are always easily dislodged accidentally. I really like the style bracket it comes with so far as it so far seems to stay very tight on the lls and when installed properly sensor cannot slip out of position. But I can see the use for some who have different setups and require different installations

The problem I was having was that I wanted the sensor lower than the clip would allow. This is where a magnet mount could be your friend. Your call on magnets but, I've had as many as 6 mag mounts in my sump, set it and forget it has been my experience. Granted, I have had blown-out magnets before.
