Light sensor with HAI OMNI II/OPII

[ricks]

Does anyone know of a photocell or light sensor similar to the ADI Photo Sensor BobCat that I can attach to the OMNI II or OPII?

Thanks,
Rick

Not sure how close it is to the Applied Digital one, but we have access to a low-voltage photocell from SensorSwitch. Do you need it for indoor or outdoor?

Hey Barry,

I have two applications for light sensors, both indoors. The Sensorswitch looks great for measuring ambient light in a room, which is one of my needs, but may be too large for my second need - detecting on/off of a gas-fired water heater.

I'll check them out.

Thanks,
Rick

I have had great luck with the light sensor listed below. Easy build, adjustable,12VDC, NO and NC contacts. My brother used one to prove a old gas boiler pilot light was on.
Found a box and cover for it.
