PIR is up and running, but not as expected.
I thought it'd work like an alarm trigger but there's a huge delay from running the code and moving my hand in front of it to it triggering. Then another huge delay whilst it has a nap before I can trigger it again. #triggered.
I've set delay to minimum and sensitivity to maximum...
This is the PIR I'm using.

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
For Halloween I want it to be an instant trigger to drive this with flashing red eyes for visitors to the door:
