Open Manufacture<\/a> is the series where we share the behind-the-scenes stories, which often reveal the immense effort and thought that goes into creating exceptional products. Today, we’re excited to take you on a journey through the button design evolution of the SenseCAP T1000 LoRaWAN GPS Tracker<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Quest for the Right Button<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The button, though seemingly small, plays a pivotal role in the user experience of any device. It’s a tactile connection between the user and the technology. When designing the SenseCAP T1000, we knew that selecting the perfect button was crucial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our journey began with a meticulous review of specifications from hundreds of button suppliers. We had a clear requirement: the button’s thickness should ensure that the tracker’s total thickness didn’t exceed 6.5mm. This was a non-negotiable parameter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After extensive evaluation, we narrowed down our options to four buttons that met our specifications. Each of these contenders had the potential to become the button for the SenseCAP T1000.<\/p>\n\n\n

The Crucial Button Life Test<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To ensure the reliability of our product, we subjected these four buttons to rigorous testing. One of the most critical tests was the button life test. We set an industry-standard baseline of 100,000 presses, a benchmark commonly seen in the mobile phone industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the video below, you can witness the testing process. As of now, we’ve completed over 80,000 presses. Button Number \u2462 not only met but surpassed the 100,000-press test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, our commitment to quality doesn’t stop here. We will continue conducting further tests to ensure the utmost reliability of our product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
