We heat our house with oil (grumble grumble grumble) but our float sensor is not a very accurate measure and it’s out of the way to actually see. Has anyone come across a sensor that works with HA and has been reliable? Bonus points for something that still has an “analog” view in case of problem

I’ve seen some sensors on Amazon but I’m skeptical of anything through there.

    VL53L0X can measure distance to 2 meters

    Honeywell ABP pressure sensor and an aquarium pump could make a bubbler tube sensor

    Can you measure flow from the tank to the furnace instead?
