Is it possible to use this LDR Sensor with your Out of the Box Clockwise version?

Thanks in advance.

Ps.: Best Clock I ever had :)

Hi Fabian, thank you. It is possible but you can simplify it using only the LDR. If you are using a Trinity board, there is placeholder in the board or if you are using a ESP32 devboard, connect it like in the diagram here -> https://github.com/jnthas/clockwise/wiki/Connecting-the-LDR

I cannot find the resistor value of A9050. What is the recommended value?

jnthas commented 1 week ago

The A9050 is an Light Dependent Resistor or LDR

hoho1986 commented 6 days ago

The A9050 is an Light Dependent Resistor or LDR

In datasheet, resistance value can between 2 and 200KΩ at 10Lux. What is the suggested resistance value? or any value can be used?

Thank you.
