We have a few latching Hall Effect sensors on order, for our shooter encoder. Then we need to figure out how to put a magnet on the shaft, or the wheel, or something.
We are searching for something similar. Would you care to share the source/part number of the Latching Hall Effect sensors you propose to use?
