Well, I would not use slot-type sensors for an encoder.

Mostly, HEDS and US Digital clones. But, anyway, something that has a narrow slit on either the emitter or sensor side (maybe both) not just the full width of the LED and photodiode parts. You can squint down the sensor slot to see if they have the slit. I think most of these commodity parts do NOT have the slit molded into the plastic.
