Measure content of condensation water bucket from air condition

Hi!

My first post here :slight_smile:

Scenario: A bucket underneath the outside aircondition unit collects condensation-water. I live in a part of the world where this water becomes ice during winter.

Goal: Get notified when the bucket nears its capacity so I can empty it before it spills.

What would be a good solution here? Been thinking on magnetic floats, based on a door/window sensor, but I guess that would fail during winter, because, ice. Also thought about weight cells; anyone got experience with an easy setup to homey and advice og components? The solution should be battery-based.

You can use this with the phone app Tuya Smart, combined with the Homey app Tuya Cloud community, by using the workaround called “RAW Commands”.
