I am collecting values and will try to associated them with what I observe.

Can anyone tell me how to translate these values to an indication of
how sunny it is?
Maybe percent of maximum sun.
There may be a way to associate the sensor out
Should I use just illuminance or should current and gain be part of the
"equation".
Thank you for your input.

Hi Peter!
I would record the data for some time in an rrd database and/or mysql
datbase (or at least a text file) and use the measured maximum of a sunny
day as 100%. I sample my sensors in 5 min intervals, which is not too
much, but still accurate enough for statistics.

Needless to say I am a rookie.
Thanks,
