“Works well, simple setup and once got it alongside breakout connectors (I didn't want to do soldering), works great.”

“Really nice sensor. I have a bit of trouble translating the proximity sensor readings to actual distance. I know this feature was never promised but it would be nice to know”

“Very nice sensor. Quick to get started with due to the nice example-code in GitHub. Plus for supporting both Python2 and Python3 :-)”

“I tested the breakout with a professional luxmeter under indoor and outdoor conditions. It seemed to be within a reasonable margin of error.”

“Very accurate lux measurement. The proximity starts running (displaying values) if something gets within the range of 5 cm (as it is specified).”

“I love the "form-factor" of the breakouts. The sensor as such is also very good.”
