VERY COOL Ripley Sunswitch! NOS from 1992. This one is an all-electronic silicon eye Ripley. Notice the label? Obviously they never followed these instructions! My guess is that this was one of Ripley's first silicon eye electronic PCs and this was a test sample. Note the huge round circuit board. I'm going to leave the label on. Definetly a cool PC! Ripley called it its "Knight Reliant Electronic Photocontrol" Keywords: Gear

Cool PC, I've got a similar test unit from 1998. Its orange and has a small 1/8 cadmium sulfide eye. Not sure what it was for but a neat piece.

Yeah after a couple decades of making mediocre photocells, Ripley had some neat experimental photocells in the 90s. They're now one of the best brands today (IMO anyways).

Looks like Photodiode or Phototransistor to me Confused
