daylight sensor: how to make it more sensitive?
My question is, how does the sensor work? Does it detect angle of rays or overall brightness or what?
I do most of my driving between Salinas and Monterey, CA, so that means lots of marine-layer days, with low lying cloud cover or high fog, however you want to picture it. These gray, dark days need headlights for safe driving, but my daylight sensor seems to think there's enough light that headlights are not needed.
What can I do* ... short of taping it over completely dark with a swath of duct tape ... to encourage the headlights to turn on, on these gray days?
Anyone have useful ideas?
*Yes, I know I can just manually turn the headlights on and off, but I'm trying to find a workaround.
[EDIT: I should have titled/asked about how to make it LESS sensitive!]
