Description

This photo sensor will turn your LEDs on when it's dark, and turn off your project when it is light.

This 1 Amp light sensor can run up to 45 LEDs! We have added 8-inch input wires and 4-inch wire on the output side. You can of course cut the wires shorter but remember which side is which!

The sensor is just the small bump in the middle, so it will be easy to hide.

Voltage options:

3-12 Volt DC - use this option for use when using batteries, or our 3 Volt or 12 Volt Adaptors. Connect the red wire from your power to the long red input wires on the receiver. Connect black to black. The lights you use need to be appropriate for the voltage of your power supply. For example, if the power supply is 3 volts use 3-volt lights. Or if your power supply is between 5-12 Volts, use our 5-12 Volt lights.

AC / DC (up to 19 Volts) - Use this option with any hobby transformer, or other power supply that is 12 volts or more. This option has 2 black wires that connect to your power supply as the polarity of the input doesn't matter. The lights you use need to be rated for the same voltage as your power supply, and must be at least 12 volts.

Works

Working fine so far driving 12V LED strip with 24 white elements.
As others have commented, the leads are tiny, single core and could be a lower gauge to make the sensor more robust and minimize ohmic losses.

Thank you so much for taking the time to review our photo sensor. We choose fine wire so that the photo sensor can be wired in to smaller projects with limited clearance. The wire is coated in tough kynar jacket and is high conductivity with a silver coating over the coper. It has very good conductivity and little loss of ohms!

Why do you use such small gage wires

Does not work as described

My application is outdoor lights with 3 AA batteries for night to dawn operation. My testing shows the lights only dim when light is present. I want the lights off during the day light hours. Your demo video demonstrates what I want. The sensor however does not work the same.

hi George I am very sorry to hear that you encountered an issue with one of your four photo sensors. We can rush you a replacement tomorrow!
Since you only mentioned ONE sensor we will hope you have tested and found the other three to work. We do replace things that fail, and it's better to reach out to us directly by calling on the phone or emailing or using our contact form so you can get an immediate response! Thank you for your patience while we work to make this right!

I like the fact they reached out to me to confirm I was ordering the correct part. Items arrived quickly and in good shape and as advertised. I will definitely order from these folks again.
