We are all glad we have the sensor because it lets us know whats coming; or about to end. The thing is we'd like to be able to keep sewing until the end of the bobbin does happen. For some when the sensor goes off, the machine stops until you put a new bobbin in. There is normally alot of thread left on the bobbin when this happens.
