Water Powered Vertical Float Switch?
I recently installed an BasePump Water powered backup sump pump, and it works pretty well. But the ball float value that it ships with is quite large and I'm worried it may be stuck against the wall of the sump pit.
Does anyone know if it is possible to change the ball float switch to a vertical float switch? I think this may provide some better clearance from the wall of the bit and flexibility in setting its location in the sump pit.

If it is an electrical switch then yes you should be able to replace it with a different style. Just make sure that whatever switch you choose is able to handle the current load. Also pay attention to whether or not you need a normally open or normally closed switch.
