I've searched the web several times (using various phrases) for a device to monitor my water softener's salt level and feed the data to a HA system. I found a few projects -- but none work with HA.
One was on this site --

Could this be adapted to work with HA? Specifically, with Z-wave and a Homeseer.
Just like every other DIYer with a HA system and a water softener, I'm hoping to find some way for my system to check the level, or get fed data, once a day or so. I want to use IR or ultrasonic technology (because anything mechanical would get in the way). Has anyone found a way to do this?
