Good value sensor
Solid build quality for the price. The analog output is useful though not always needed for basic projects. Took a moment to understand the pinout diagram.

Works but needs tuning
Functionality is fine but the default sensitivity was too high out of the box. Had to adjust the pot significantly to get the desired trigger point.

Essential Component
Bought five for a line follower robot variant. All worked out of the box. Fast delivery and well packaged to prevent pin bending.

Great for Arduino Projects
Works perfectly as described. Easy to calibrate with the potentiometer. Used it for a simple night light project and it responded instantly to room lighting changes.

Reliable Light Detection
Very responsive to light changes. The LM393 comparator is stable and does not fluctuate wildly. Great for robotics applications where consistency matters.
Q: What is the specific detection range in Lux?
A: It detects ambient light levels; the specific lux range depends on calibration and environmental conditions.
Q: Does it provide analog output?
A: Yes, the AO pin provides an analog voltage value based on the light intensity detected by the photoresistor.
Q: Is this compatible with 3.3V logic systems?
A: Yes, it operates between 3.3V and 5V DC, making it suitable for most 3.3V logic microcontrollers.
Q: Can I use this with a Raspberry Pi?
A: Yes, but ensure you connect the output to GPIO pins suitable for 3.3V input to avoid damage.
Q: What does the blue potentiometer do?
A: It adjusts the sensitivity threshold for the digital output signal, determining when the LED turns on or off.
