I'm going to get a phatty bong cooler. I've got a few ideas of how to do some water level detection so it doesn't over/underflow and so it can shut off in case the water goes away. I'll post them when I know I'll be able to communicate coherently, but until then, what are all you out there with WATERCOOLING bongs using to figure out the water level?

Me no bong person (or watercooling person to be precice....), but I did once have an electronics kit that could do about 150 things. One of them was a water level monitor. Basicaly, you stick in three or so wires, and when the water level gets below the last wire, it sets off an alarm. When below the second-to-last wire, it sets off a warning signal. Search on the internet.... But wait... Don't bongs use distilled water? If so, it won't work (distilled water don't conduct...)

You could always try hooking up a toilet bowl bulb.... :D
