Good value but sensitive to sunlight
Great sensor for indoor altitude holding. However, performance drops significantly when used outdoors in direct sunlight. Expected behavior for this price point though.

Excellent precision for the size
Impressed by how small this module is while still providing millimeter-level accuracy. The pinout is clearly labeled which made soldering easy.

Perfect for my robotics project
The VL53L1X module works flawlessly with my Arduino setup. The range is accurate up to 2 meters in indoor lighting conditions. Easy to integrate using standard libraries.

Reliable and compact
We bought ten of these for our workshop kits. They are small, lightweight, and the I2C communication is stable. Highly recommended for educational purposes.

Works as described
Shipping was fast and the module arrived well-packaged. It took a little tweaking to get the timing budget right for my specific use case, but overall very satisfied.

Fast response time
The sampling rate is impressive. I am using it for obstacle avoidance on a fast-moving rover, and it reacts quickly enough to prevent collisions.
Q: Can I use this underwater?
A: No, this module is not waterproof or water-resistant. It is designed for dry, indoor, or protected outdoor environments only.
Q: What is the difference between the 050C, 200C, and 400C models?
A: The primary difference is the maximum effective ranging distance. The 050C is optimized for short range, the 200C for medium range, and the 400C supports the longest distance up to 4 meters under ideal conditions.
Q: Does this module work with Raspberry Pi?
A: Yes, this sensor uses the I2C protocol and is fully compatible with Raspberry Pi models that support I2C. You will need to enable the I2C interface in the raspi-config settings.
Q: Is a library available for ESP32?
A: Yes, there are several open-source libraries available for the ESP32 platform, including the official STMicroelectronics driver ports and community-maintained versions on GitHub.
Q: Does it come with header pins pre-soldered?
A: No, the module is shipped without header pins to keep the profile low. You will need to solder your own headers or wires depending on your integration needs.
