I came up with my own set up.That you can see in my build thread.I used an industrial ss float switch to turn on an indicator in my stack light.Works like a charm.I haven't had it come on yet.So I haven't lost enough water for the float to come down and trip the switch.I don't think there is anything out there that will just be an easy fix to get what you want to do.good luck with it. :thumbup:

We install a low water cut off control on new boilers we install it comes with sensor. When water water gets low it shuts off the power to the entire system and has a wire connection to send a signal to an external alarm or light they work great !
