This light control can be created with just a day or night time control. Yes, The outlet on the left turns things on during day light and the outlet on the left turns things on at night. Would be interested in knowing how much for your sensor and where you obtained it.

Reply Congratulations you just created your own light controlled outlets. There's a MUCH MUCH easier way... and cost $5 Here's how...Buy two photo sensors from eBay at $1.60 each.... and any light bulb.Put one sensor in normal light and the other in a shoe box with the light bulb. That’s all you need to do to reset your dusk to dawn lights. 2 years ago. Answer The reason is simply because they were available. I did that because the wires were so little that I felt they would come un-done inside of a wire nut. I made it using separate GFIs. When it's light outside the shoe box will be dark... telling the second sensor to turn on.If you use this with solar panels you'll get significant INCREASE in efficiency because solar panels normally supply WAY WAY MORE power than the batteries can accept at their maximum charge rate. You can draw this extra power from the panels that the batteries can't take..... during the charging daylight hours. The cover turned out to be a great template. The photocell (the little eye that "sees" the light or lack of it) is too close to the light you are trying to control. I guess those are also readily available but at a ridiculous prices nearing $100+. Appreciate the diagram as well. Grab one of each color wire from the bulbs. It took a few swipes but it worked out fine. About: I am a life long biz owner. The only other electronic devices needed arelimit/snap switches to stop the motor once it reaches the end of it'strack when insulation panel assembly closes, and releases to powerback on for next cycle when insulation panel assembly opens. A(z) Yahoo a Verizon Media része. How does a relay socket differ from a relay? Drill out the hole for the electrical cord. You can now begin to attach all the wires to the appropriate locations. A lot of motors sayinterchange red & black wires to run in reverse. Lastly, flip the light switch back on. It's a reversible motor and pretty sure can wire it to run both wayswithout need for a DPDT relay in between. Could you provide a wiring diagram for the relay-> photosensor part of this project? So simply elegant & versatile, this has become both one of myfavorite electronic projects as well as devices. Everything else is pretty much self explanatory. Going to use this to directly power a 240 volt ac motoradapting/emulating your 120 volt plans) to run a gear-trackassembly to open and close greenhouse insulation panels day and nightautomatically. This kit allows is made up of readily available parts, you may even have them in a parts bin. It would probably be less expensive to replace the light than repair it. Espessially when the would be beside a much wider wire. Did you make this project? What I did was solder both of them along with another wire that will attach to the white supply wire. Thank you kindly for sharing this cool project! Az Adatvédelmi irányelvek közt és a Cookie-szabályzatban olvashat bővebben arról, hogyan használjuk fel adatait. Can you give more specifics on the relay portion? All you need to provide auto charging is a simple diode that blocks any discharge at night or when a cloud passes over your PV array.
