well sense I started the whole thing running the otherday and I want to go camping agian this weekend I had to get busy on my top off system.

for now I am using a 5 gal jug onto pof my stan hooked to a float valve, later when I figure out how to get a tap to my stand I will hook up my RO with the spectrapure top off system.

this is the jug on top of the stand

a above shot of the float valve and bracket, the clamps are there to hold everything in place till the silicone dries. I siliconed the bracket to the side of the tank, it is above the water and no silicone touched the water.

Looks Good,
I could use a system set up like that for my tank. Problem is I replace close to 4 gallons a day of RO.
You can get shutoff soleniods for your RO unit, but if you're like me and hate to have to spend any money whatsoever, then my only solution is to hook up a 45 gallon drum
