5mm 5800B Universal Photoresistor Light-Dependent Resistance switch
We have ✅ 354 available of the LB-LS0633 in our Sydney warehouse.
A pack of 50 through-hole photoresistors (light-dependent resistors / LDRs) with a 5 mm diameter sensing element. These components change their resistance based on the amount of light hitting the sensor — resistance decreases as light intensity increases — making them a simple and inexpensive way to detect ambient light levels.
Photoresistors are commonly used in automatic lighting systems, light-following robots, and basic light-level sensing circuits. They pair well with a voltage divider and an analogue input on any microcontroller such as Arduino or Raspberry Pi.
