Documentation could be better

The module works but the pinout diagram on the back was faint. Had to look up the datasheet online to confirm VCC and GND.

Good accuracy, slow update

The sensor is accurate compared to my multimeter. However, the sampling rate is a bit slow for rapid temperature changes. Good for steady states.
