There is also a schematic for another FLED photovore design at
http://www.geocities.com/soho/lofts/1121/beam/pvore3.gif
Advantages:
Minimal number of components, thus
One solar cell and one cap.
Almost as simple as the design Ian describes.
Disadvantages:
Minimal number of components, thus
No trim pot - make sure you use identical components.
Pretty rudimentary :-)
