This thing uses a vibration sensor and counts when a pump is activated. I created this to measure when my basement pumps turn on. If you've ever had a flooded basement due to a bad pump, you can see the value here! The LCD screen keeps a running tally and it displays the last time it ran. For the input trigger, I could have used a current sensor, but I didn't want to use a $2 device on a high amperage circuit hidden in the basement! I experimented with a microphone device to "listen"
