Pay attention to the distance between the magnet and the sensor. Different magnets have different magnetic fields and the distance specified in the sensor’s data sheet is tested with the included rectangular magnet.

With standard rectangular magnet: <7mm
With round d8h5: <2mm
With round d15h4: <9mm
