Sensitivity: Some flex sensors will pick up on small bends or twists and some sensors will not. More sensitive sensors tend to be more expensive.
Durability: Sensors that can be bent and twisted much more without breaking are often more costly than those that have a lower capacity for these actions.
Well, now that you know what can impact the price of flex sensors, as soon as you gather the above information, you’re ready to compare prices. Flex sensors are available at various prices through different brands and stores, so you may have to shop around to find the best price for one.
