I'm building a General Tso. What kind of positioning do the LED and LDR need have to have to one another to work effectively? It appears that the LDR has a photo plate that I assume needs to be directly exposed at close range to the lumen of the LED. If so, what does that look like? I noticed in one build pic that the builder wrapped the two in heat shrink. I assume that's not necessary except that it may keep any physical jostling of the pedal from messing up the "alignment" of the two.
