it is a simple and powerful concept , which uses transistor ( BC 547 NPN) as a switch to switch ON and OFF the street light system automatically . It automatically switches ON lights when the sunlight goes below the visible region of our eyes. ( e.g in evening after Sunset ). it automatically switches OFF lights when Sunlight fall on it ( e.g in morning ) , by using a sensor called LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) which senses the light just like our eyes. Needs no manual operation for switching ON and OFF...
Parts:*1 *1 *1 *1 *1 *1 *1 BC547 transistor 220 k resistor 330 ohms resistor LED (any colour ) 9v battery battery clip LDR ( light dependent resistor )
Step 2: AND...

solder the transistor on the board and solder one wire of the LDR to the emitter and other to the base , solder the negative wire of the LED to the base of thetransistor with a 330 ohms resistor and also solder 220k resistor with the one side of the 330 ohms resistor .
The simple circuit is ready for testing now . Connect 9v battery terminals to the circuit as show in fig and see the output . As you block light falling on Light dependent resistor (LDR), the LED glows .
The circuit can run 2 LED's for over a month with just 2 AA batteries. I use a similar one to light up my wall clock with 2 bright warm white flat top LED's.
How do you make sure that when the light turns itself on, it doesn't then sense the light and turn itself back off?
yeah , it is true.. in this case should keep some distance in between LED and LDR .
