These are from China and take absolutly forever to ship, but if you stock up on them now they're great to have, especially given the price.

We used them everywhere this year, two to sense totes, two to sense the tape on the floor for our 3 tote, and one to sense a container. Last year we used it to sense the limit on our catapult. Just don't be foolish like us and point two towards each other to try and sense the totes, you'll end up bending a sensor mount up so they don't interfere. .
Our school is unlikely to allow us to buy stuff through ebay. Any similar sensors from a more official website? Thanks!
