Yes I agree to put it under it's glass or some such cover and then experiment more. I did that yesterday in the thought that the sensor may work better in it's 'low range' and did have some success in getting more accurate readings. I'll check the reference voltage as you suggest as well.

The interesting part will getting it calibrated across it's entire range of readings. I guess that is one of the challenges of using analogue devices.
