  Re: CdS cells
 
(...) It's certainly easiest to start out with a sensor that has a reasonable resistance range. However, if for whatever reason you have sensors that tend to be lower in resistance to the ideal, simply add your own resistor between the signal and (...)

  Re: CdS cells
 
David, I believe you will want to purchase ones that have a dark resistance more than say 20K. The sensor is part of a divider circuit that includes a 47K resistor. The sensed signal equals (sensor resistance)/(sensor +47K) multipled by 255. If your (...) (27 years ago, 8-Aug-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: 3v motors
 
Yes Vs should stay at 5v, but if you read my original message the best thing is to use 9.6 volt motors!! Save yourself some trouble! jm (...) (27 years ago, 7-Aug-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
