Fun to watch you Rodal. Photo Cell in commercial 300 watt outdoor photocell for lights had the plastic screen blur after two years and lights would stay on all the time. Has option for manual timer and put it in device. Need one for a lamp post. Used a screw in photo cell that light bulb screws into and quit after 6 months. What type of weather proof photo cell would you recommend for the 100 watt led bulb to mount on post?
Some of these Zodion photocells have been in service for 5 to 8 years and still working well. Installation is important that no water can get in the electronics. The buzzing photocell got wet in the skip as the fixture was upside down. Seems to work fine after I had it on the heater for a day.
Hi Ray, At the start of the video your workbench looked like mine does at the moment, going to try and fix that today, before it's back to work tomorrow. Can you still buy them little neon indicator bulbs?, I haven't seen one in ages. Thanks for the video.
I have salvaged a few of them from old substation panels. They may be around on Ebay although most of them are of the NE2 type with floating leads instead of an small Edison or Bayonet cap.
