VR/Hall sensor options for crank sensor?

Hi,

Does a handy compilation exist that lists the popular options for crank trigger wheel sensors and the corresponding optimal tooth width? I'm trying to identify a compact sensor to use for my AH3000 project.

I have a wheel that I made before adequate research into VR sensors and I think the teeth are going to be too wide at 0.35" (0.25" thick plate).

Thanks!

I'm not an expert, but my experiments with hall effect sensors showed they are very tolerant. VR will be less so - but still not difficult to get working.
