Complete instructions for this episode of Weekend Projects can be found at makezine.com/projects/solar-cricket/ Learn how to use solar panels for both battery charging and for sensing when light has dropped below a certain threshold. Learn how to use an Arduino Micro for power management, and combine these two skills into an exciting classic "cricket" noisemaker that only turns on when the sun has faded into the night.
