Automatic Night Light Penstand || DIY

Here, I am going to show you how to make a Night Sensing Penstand which glows ON automatically at night or in darkness.

This project is based on Dark Sensor Circuit, which is a circuit which turns ON the load (lights) when it detects darkness. The key component for making this project is LDR - Light Dependent Resistor, a photoresistor whose resistance varies with the change in the light intensity that falls upon it.

Material Required
