  Simple Water Level Indicator – A Handy DIY Project Using LEDs Water is a precious resource, and monitoring its usage is essential in many applications, from household water tanks to industrial storage systems. If you’ve ever wondered how to keep track of water levels in a simple and cost-effective way, this DIY  Simple Water Level Indicator  project is perfect for you! Using LEDs, this project visually indicates different water levels, making it easy to know when your tank is full, half-full, or empty. How Does It Work? The water level indicator works on the principle of conductivity. When water comes into contact with sensors placed at different levels in the tank, it completes an electrical circuit, lighting up the corresponding LED. Here’s a breakdown of the components and their roles: Sensors : Probes (usually made of metal) are placed at different heights inside the tank. LEDs : Each sensor is connected to an LED that lights up when the water reaches that level. Tr...
