Can change resistance depending on the amount of light
Power Consumption: 70 mW
Voltage: 5 V
The Light Sensor Mini Photocell is made of environment-friendly materials (no Cadmium and Lead) compared with the traditional CDS photoresistor. It changes resistance depending on the amount of light it is exposed to.
Works well enough but not much of a datasheet to help with getting a clear analog value

Found the ACTUAL datasheet
So I found the actual manufacturer datasheet for this guy: https://github.com/DFRobot/DFResources/raw/master/Others/Datasheet.pdf Comment RobotShop: Thank you for the link, we updated the product description.

Trial and error but does work
It would be nice to have a real data sheet for this. It basically says it runs on 5v but nothing about it's resistance characteristics (min/max), polarity, light frequency it's sensative to etc. Had to play to figure it out and still not 100% sure. Is there a real part number somewhere and a real datasheet?
