00:00If you're building an Arduino project that needs to know when it's bright or dark outside,
00:04a photoresistor is the simplest sensor you can grab and I've dug through the listings to find
00:08the best deals on top 5 photoresistors for detecting ambient light levels, so you don't
00:12have to. First up, the 50-piece LDR lot with the 5528, GL5528, 5537, 5506, 5516, 5539,
00:23and 5549 values. The best part is the sheer variety, you get a whole range of sensitivity
00:30curves in one bag, so you can experiment and actually see how each type responds to light.
00:35At $4.51 with 4,668 sold and a 4.8 rating, it's a rock-solid starter kit if you
00:43want options.
00:44Then there's the 20-piece LDR pack, also covering 5528, GL5528, 5537, 5506, 5516,
00:53and 5539. The standout here is that 4.9 rating, buyers clearly love it, and at just $3.11 with
01:01over 4,500 sold, it's a great pick if you only need a handful of sensors for a small project.
01:07Number 3 is basically the budget version of that same 20-piece set. Same values, same 4.9 rating,
01:14but at $2.44 it's the cheapest 20-pack in the lineup, and with 4,304 sold it's clearly a
01:21crowd
01:21favorite. If you want quality without spending much, this is the one. Fourth is a 50-piece kit
01:28with the GL5506, GL5516, GL5528, GL5537, and GL5539 and it's got a perfect 5-star rating, which is
01:38rare. At $3.57 with 4,245 sold, you're getting a full bag of the most popular photoresistor types
01:46for less than $4. That's hard to beat for value and reliability. And the last one might be the
01:53craziest deal, another 50-piece lot with the same 5528, GL5528, 5537, 5506, 5516, 5539, and 5549 range,
02:05but for just $1.52. It's also got a 5-star rating and over 4,100 sold. If you just
02:14want maximum
02:14quantity for minimum money, this is the obvious choice. So there you go 5 solid photoresistor
02:20options for any ambient light project. All the links are in the description below,
