Street light photocell : curiosity teardown
This week I'm exploring a photocell that is used to control street lighting.
It's somewhat different from the one Big Clive looked at a couple of years ago ( • Inside a UK compliant dusk sensor switch. ... ), but it does the same job.
Tearing this down put my solder sucker to the test - and it did well, even with the huge pads and big pins. https://pileofstuff.ca/r/5rclq if you're interested

This isn't the only way to do it.
It's probably not the best way to do it.
But it's how I do it.
