Review: Hooked the VCC and ground to a 12v A/C adapter and it worked perfect. The 3.3v "trigger" pin (the "OUT") even had enough juice to directly power a red LED (tho a little dimmer than normal). Very wide sensitivity pattern. Tho description says "< 100 degrees" I thought it was greater than 120. At default sensitivity it would trigger easily from 8-10' away. I never adjusted it as that was the perfect distance for my needs. Holding it with the sensor "dome" facing down and the adjusting (orange) "screws" facing you, the left one is the sensitivity, the right is the duration that the OUT pin will stay "on" (i.e. hold at 3.3v). Minimum seems to be around 4 seconds.
Review: These are useless as motion detectors due to the false reports. Yes I tried the pF capacitor from Signal to Ground and I shortened the signal wire. It did reduce the false motions but they still happen few minutes. Unfortunately I can't send them back due to adding the capacitor to the circuit. I would not recommend these to anyone. I will try to keep fussing with them. I am trying now on a Wemos D1 Mini with less than 1 cm of signal wire from PIR to data pin. UPDATE: Still bad on the wemos with <1 cm wire. Tried pull up resistor - no effect. Increased and decreased capacitor size - no effect. I've ordered a different type. Hope they work.

## Features

- Use Potentiometer 105, output timing is from 0.5S to 200S. Same product link https://www.desertcart.com/dp/B07CSM3K63
- Reference links: https://www.mysensors.org/build/motion
- NOTE: On this retrigger jumper is a solder jumper, and you need solder it by yourself
- Pls note that there is no IR emitter in this module, the principle of PIR sensor is to detect the infrared radiation emitted by the human body, it only have a IR sensor (cell)
- Package Included: 5 X HC-SR501 PIR Infared Sensor. If any question, pls contact us by email. You can find " Sold by DIYmall" under Buy Now button, click "DIYmall" and you will get to a new page, click "Ask a question".

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the sensitivity adjustable?**
A: Yes there are two pots on the board you can use to adjust. Check the web for how to do it.

**Q: Can i hook this directly to the item i want to switch? it’s dc current.**
A: WRCoyle is pretty much wrong on their answer. I'm assuming you want to turn electricity on to another device with this? The answer to that is no. This provides a logic output that is high when it is triggered and low when on standby. The BISS0001 chip on this has the output pin rated for 10mA and it goes straight to the out pin on the board, no transistor used to handle more power. It can run a regular LED using a resistor to limit the LED to 10mA or less. Beyond that, you will need a transistor or solid state relay or some other setup to handle any amount of current.

**Q: How would you describe the range and sensitivity of these?  I need to detect when motion stops in a 12x14 room of people.**
A: It will sense any movement (heating moving paper)  in a room of that size

**Q: Could this be used to replace a faulty IR sensor on animated halloween props?**
A: The pir sensor should work but the output is simply a logic level output. It will not provide much current.

*by W***K on 18 August 2020*

My first impression is that these are great little sensors. They seem to detect motion well and hookup is really easy. They work perfectly to drive the 5 volt input of a relay module; when I get time to experiment I'll see what they can really do.
