That might be a plan. At the moment the alkali is drawn from the container it's supplied in - which is a sturdy blue plastic 'squared-off barrel'. When each one runs dry, a new one is swapped in.
Making a permanent 'tank' that's equipped with built-in level sensors might be a way - but then I'd need to lift the 'refills' to pour them into the main tank (unless I rigged up some kind of pump)
It's all I can do to drag these things along the ground, lifting them to pour would be hard work - if not impossible.
