Hi Steve
I just added mine to the right hand chamber a couple of days ago. It's a bit fiddly! I considered the left hand chamber but intend to keep the black sponge. I found it a struggle to get the sponge out to rinse it as it is, I don't think I have the patience to remove the ATO sensors each time! I'd be interested in seeing your setup if you go for it.
Regards
Mike
PS I upgraded my Tunze ATO to the magnet version ( from 2010 onwards they replaced the plastic 'rack' that holds the sensors) by buying just the magnet sensor holder - I'm not sure how easy it is to fit the old version.

Steve,
I also have my sensors in the rh chamber for a couple of reasons, mainly because the water lever there is more representative of the actual water level, on the lh side it is influenced by the fine filter, if this clogs up the water level drops and you will be adding more water in when it isn't needed. The other reason is as Mike says, it would be a pain to move it everytime to clean the black sponge. There is also an advantage of it being in the rh if the fine filter does clog up badly, this causes the water level to rise in the rh chamber and sets off the overflow alarm on the tunze.
Good luck
