## Description

This is the same product as the [Flex Sensor 2.2"](https://core-electronics.com.au/search/?q=10264). The difference is this version comes in fancy clamshell packaging meant for our distributors that need it. Regular customers are welcome to order, but we want to limit the amount of extra packaging finding its way into the trash heap.

 A simple flex sensor 2.2" in length. As the sensor is flexed, the resistance across the sensor increases. Patented technology by Spectra Symbol - they claim these sensors were used in the original Nintendo Power Glove. I love the Nintendo Power Glove. It’s so bad!

 The resistance of the flex sensor changes when the metal pads are on the outside of the bend (text on inside of bend).

 Connector is 0.1" spaced and bread board friendly. Check datasheet for full specifications.
