This is a simple but reliable circuit for your sump-pump, aquarium, boat, or whatever, but water only. Please
be careful when working with 115Volt line voltage! Take every precaution to avoid electrical shock. Unplug
the power before making changes or touching resistor R1. Murphy's Law applies to all of us!

Experiment with the value for wire-wound resistor R1. It can be anywhere from 5 to 47 ohms. Start with 15
ohms or so and take it from there. Feel if it gets real hot (unplug the power first!). If so, increase the value.
