I used a 12vdc timer relay and wired it to a float switch. It has a 5-30 second delay before it turns on and it turns off as soon as power is removed. it is sort of a "all in one" solution, very easy to wire, and very light. I have seem them in the 35-65$ range. Mine was a 5 amp miniature unit if anyone wants the number and I have a picture of it. The wiring is shown below.
