A possible problem is that my circuit draws 9.7mA continuously from a 6V supply. 17mA in alarm. Though not a great deal of current, if this is to be left unattended for long periods of time, a battery might run down and leave you with no alarm.
However, I just just checked the circuit with reduced voltage and no water present, it goes into continuous alarm (no pulsing) at ~3.5V. Current draw is then ~13mA. I'm using a SONALERT tone buzzer rated at 1-5VDC, which will work at that low a voltage.
Can you explain how and where you intend to use you circuit?
