HiLetgo VL53L0X Time-of-Flight Flight Distance Measurement Sensor Breakout VL53L0X ToF Laser Range Finder for Arduino

This sensor came exactly as expected and is working great. Sensor accuracy actually exceeded my expectations too. No complaints

I ordered one and it was easy to install and get working, but failed after about 2 minutes of continuous use. I requested an exchange and received it promptly. The replacement sat on my desk for a few weeks and when I hooked it up today, it failed again within minutes of use. I tried 5V the first board and 3.3V the second. There wasn't much else to troubleshoot given the time of operation.

Works great to display short distances.

Unfortunately it did not work. Just like some others mentioned, i tried different devices with no luck. I tried to give it a shot but I was one of the unlucky ones.

Ordered 3 of these sensors, and one of them didn't work. Kind of disappointed but compared to the price of the Adafruit time of flight sensor, I guess it's worth it...The accuracy is good enough for the applications I'm using it for so no drawbacks on that aspect. But if you need a really accurate distance sensor, this is probably not the ideal product for you.

This thing is super accurate. Great if you need to monitor or measure a short distance accurately. It is super small and does not use as much room as standard ultra sonic sensors. Great for small robots or small machines.

It's ability to detect an arbitrary object drops off precipitously after about 400mm, which is far below the claimed 2meters. A highly reflective object performs better, but this is far from the +/-10% tolerance of "less optimal conditions", as claimed.

I bought it to test with Arduino. Downloaded library for VL53L0X. Surprisingly it worked right away.
