Good evening from my timezone and welcome to the magnetized club. I have two magnets in my left hand. A xG3 V1 in my middle finger and a xG3 V2 in my knife edge. As the area of your install heals and swelling goes down you should be able to start sensing things.
There is no scientific measurement for a perception of sensing. In my experience my xG3 V1 feels roughly 3x stronger than my V2 at sensing, however they are in different locations. The V2 is not “ideally” a sensing magnet, but I am still able to feel magnetic fields with it.
I have no experience with your install area, but “non optimal” sensing locations don’t necessarily mean you won’t feel anything. Your perception of sensing from that location may be slightly less than somewhere else, but I believe you will be fine.
