Hey everybody!...i want to do an experiment at my house!, i want to do an Automatic Light Dimmer!...that regulates itself with the ambient light, i want to automatize ten(10) 120VAC light bulbs!...the circuit that i have, i got i from "Home Remote Control & Automation Projects" by Delton Horn but i Cant do it because it uses a X9503 digital potenciometer!...the problem is that here in venezuela they don't sell it!...so does anyone has a Schematic that could pass me??...i haven't been able to find a circuit over internet...thanks a lot!

I know nothing about electronics. Since you have internet, though, have you tried to purchase the required component on-line?
 
I can't buy it over internet cause our MF commie president in venezuela has got the country under a trade Control!...to buy stuff over the internet you got to do a super long Burocratic process that will take me several months...

i have that schematic but miss the component...and over the internet i can't find an Automatic light Dimmer...that varies the light intensity inversly proportional to the ambient light...does anyone has an schematic that could pass me please!...thanks a lot!...
