A question about a 3rd sensor.

This should resemble my play area.  🙂
As it is now I have my laptop and G27 set up in a closet, where I mostly sit and play with the Rift.
I can also stand outside the closet in the hallway and play games like Damage Core as long as I don't step behind the wall.
And it's also there I will use my Touch once I get them.
I have drilled a hole from the closet to a fuse box beside the closet, see picture.  😉
where I will mount the 2nd sensor.

The question I have is, do to the somewhat limited tracking because of the wall between the two sensors, I think I might need a 3rd for better cover.
The problem is that I won't be able to mount the 3rd sensor, it will be placed on a bureau in the hallway.
Can I have the 3rd sensor portable, and take it out to play and then put it away when I don't use it?
Or will this mess up my room scale every time?

You'll mess it up every time, unless you're able to place it back EXACTLY where it was when you set it up.

So the slightest nudge off a sensor will set it off?
I think I can manage to place it the same if i use the outside lines of the bureau, but it won't be easy to get the exact angle of the sensor right.

My problem with the 3rd sensor lies on the wife.  😉
She won't accept a sensor standing in the hallway.. 

But thanks for the tip, I think I will pick a few of those to secure the other sensors.  🙂
