15 but try it on 5 first, usually with these things the rule is bare minimum then bring it up slightly.

Shock sensor sensitivity depends highly on where it's mounted, which is one of the reasons I prefer external ones to the internal ones, simply because where you situate your control module may not always be an apppropriate place for a shock sensor! You may have to try manouvering your brain around a little to attain the desired results from the sensor!
