Someone had a question about CdS light cells the other day.

This is an excellent site: http://www.egginc.com/Opto-110/cds.htm
EG&G Optoelectronics, Vactec division.  Phone 314.423.4900.

You can buy their products from people like Allied Electronics 800.433.5700
http://www.allied.avnet.com  Look around for part # 980-0105, this is an EG&G # VT935G.

The magic is that the response time at 1 foot/candle is 35ms, fall time 5ms, pretty fast where I come
from.  $0.34 each for less than 100.  I have requested a catalog (I still like browsing in print) and I will
be interested to see what other ranges of the spectrum they cover.....
