In bright sunlight, that resistance can drop to as low as some hundreds of ohms.\u003cbr\u003e• Spectrally Sensitive: Most 5mm LDRs are tuned to peak sensitivity at around 540nm, which is almost identical to the green-yellow light the human eye perceives best.\u003cbr\u003e• Durability: The sensor is typically encased in a ceramic package with a clear epoxy coating, making it resistant to heat and common environmental wear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Capabilities:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Size: Standard 5mm diameter.\u003cbr\u003e• Dark Resistance: \u0026gt;= 1MΩ\u003cbr\u003e• Light Resistance: 10-20 kΩ @ 10 lux (Standard room light).\u003cbr\u003e• Max Voltage: Typically up to 150V DC, allowing it to be used in some AC-driven light-trigger circuits (with caution).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest For:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe raw 5mm LDR is the primary choice for solar-powered garden lights, night-vision triggers for security cameras, analog light meters, and optical \"theremins\" (music generators controlled by hand shadows).\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TinkEdge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46405012881607,"sku":"TE-LIGSE-101","price":18.19,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/6620\/6407\/files\/LDR5mmSensoronly_1.png?v=1776665104","url":"https:\/\/shop.tinkedge.tech\/products\/ldr-5mm-sensor-only","provider":"TinkEdge","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
