this video is fabulous, I really did understand how to use the photo cell.
I did a series of experiments and found that to get an even better result you can add a potentiometer and use the value read from it as adjusting the amount of darkness in which you want the lights come on.
Also if you replace the LED with a relay you can use this system to control the normal incandescent lamps.

@rmhutchins7

Enjoyed your video!

@smigdig

I plan to create a network of light sensors, and use the average value to control the dim of some incandescent lamps.

Basically, as the sun sets, and the lights go down, I want my patio to be ambiently lit, slowing dimming up from 0 to 100 brightness.

Where can I get one of those relays? And which Arduino board would you recommend for this?

@adminie

where is the led connected to?

@andrew1056 sounds pretty good.  I'm currently learning about the differences between IR lighting and incandescent lighting and light from LED's.  Do you think that if you lit your house with LED's that it would effect the LDR??  I think that only florescent lights would effect the LDR.  Just my 2 cents.  -Joe

@shinin

Awesome video! Would it be possible to share the code if you still have it?

@joebro391

what do you feel would be the best course of action to work around the shut on/off problem (the light going off, everytime the led's come on)??  -Joe

@vn0r1g1n41

Ahh, you'll need to have the photoresistor placed somewhere the light doesn't change like pointing outside a window.

@jpbagcal4400

i know the code of this one....but i want to make a counter using LDR and the output is 7 segment display...but i have lots of problem about the code....i hope u can help me sir

@Regulator1332

code?

@baddspella

source code please?
