I will update as soon as possible.
Parts still needed: Water Filters and Housings - $10 each 1/4" tubing (ridged) - $1.70 for 25' $110 total so far (including parts and shipping) Update: $121.70 running total. I now have everything needed and will be putting up the test system soon.

Keep forgetting to update.
The test system has been on my tank for a while now. I haven't gone brave enough for the auto drain, but the auto fill has been working flawlessly. I simply do my normal gravel vac and the tank magically fills itself back up  .I'll work on the autodrain part soon (probably after I get some other tank(s) situated).

I understand 100% brandy (well maybe 85%+).
My ultimate goal is to make it so I have constant incoming water to simulate a natural water sourse (lake, river, etc.) as I think it'd be best for the fish. Now certain fish might not do so well with the constant incoming water (swamp fish for example), but still having the auto fill would be handy (as it already has been for me).
