How much do you want to spend?
Airwaterice has a compact 75gpd unit for $139.95
or a Mighty mite 50GPD unit for $110
OR you may be able to find a used one

JBJ ATO - two sensors - one to keep level in the sump the other monitors the resevoir and shuts power to pump if the resevoir gets too low. $100 plus small pump.

Tunze Osmolator.
I've tried both the Tunze and JBJ. The Tunze is much better than the JBJ. For some reason, the JBJ ATO kept getting stuck for me. they probably have cured this problem already. I've had the Tunze since october, and its awesome. keeps my water level from dropping more than a centimeter
