Range varies by lighting
Works well in dark, but sunlight interferes slightly. Still usable for indoor projects.

Good sensor, careful with voltage
Great performance but make sure not to exceed 3.6V. Otherwise solid build quality.

Documentation was helpful
The included docs made setup easy. Detected hand waves consistently during testing.
Q: What is the main difference from APDS-9960?
A: Functionality is similar, but please check the datasheet for specific electrical differences.
Q: Is this sensor 5V tolerant?
A: No, please use 3.3V logic levels to avoid damaging the module.
Q: Which library works best for this?
A: We recommend the Adafruit APDS9960 library for broad compatibility.
Q: What is the default I2C address?
A: The default I2C address for this module is 0x39.
Q: Does it work with ESP8266 boards?
A: Yes, it is fully compatible with ESP8266 and ESP32 boards.
