A note at the bottom of your linked page hints that the sensor may need to be adjusted based on the material you're pointing at. Any chance that is impacting the reading?

Alex "There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." -- Isaac Asimov
