anyone know much about circuitry? I need a photoresistor to turn on a small pump as soon as it gets dark, run for ten minutes then shut off. I think the easiest way would be to use arduino but definitely not the cheapest. |

Grab a freeduino same thing.. arduino will do fine. What size is the pump how many Volts, Amps, Watts, ect. Do you have to use a solar cell. or just detect when the light gets dark and turn on the motor. |

I might just use freeduino. but I am charging with a solar panel so i need very little power consumption. and the motor needs to run just once a night. |

You may want to look into the sleep commands for the ardiuno. |
