Amateur alarm circuit problem

From my OP: The said circuit produces a siren type sound on a buzzer so I added an led through a resistor, a 10k pot and a LDR.

So when light hits the LDR, the alarm goes off.

Again, the same or earlier circuit works fine so I'll just leave it at than now. Thanks

1) I am using bipolar 555's 2) I am using CMOS 555's 3) I don't know, the numbers on the top of the chips are: .........

Three days in, 21 articles, and only *now* do you actually state why you added the extra components. Your OP three days ago left off the "So when ... off." sentence.

Yup, I think we can all agree on that one :-)
