Circuit 1 Blinking really fast

Circuit 2

Using the Potentiometer to make the blinking faster

How the Potentiometer Works

The potentiometer is a voltage divider. When you turn it, the center pin will adjust from 0V to 5V. This is connected to the Sensor Value Pin and the arduino changes the sensor value variable to make the light blink quicker.

Manipulating the Code

ManualTune: It will never turn the LED off and it will manually change the range from light to dark. The Pro of this that you can manually change the range. The Con is that it can never turn fully off.

AutoTune: It can fully turn off the LED and the Arduino will do the work for you. The Pro for this code is that the Arduino will remember the code and do the work for you. The Con of this code is that it could in som cases be lest realistic.
