How are these shipped to folks who need to use them? Do they come with reset instructions? Looks like that 180-degree detector would be the worst to reset before applying the sticker.

See those holes in the sticker? I imagine the piece of paper you peel off holds pins into place in there, preventing triggering until after the sticker is applied.

I hadn’t realized those were holes. Makes sense.
