Making: Calibur Switch - the secret behind the one-of-a-kind metal wallet

Through thicks and thins with TheCalibur, we have learned many lessons about business and ways to apply simple daily life materials into production. One time, when a team member took late-night snacks from the fridge, he observed how the refrigerator operated. When the door opened, the light turned on brightly, and when the door closed, the light suddenly went out, as if there was the intervention of a limit switch mechanism. Then, a unique idea sparked in our minds, inspired by the limit switch, and we were able to design a unique trigger mechanism for TheCalibur smart wallet.

What's the limit switch?

A limit switch is a type of switch used to restrict the movement of moving parts, typically placed along the operational path of an electric current or a motor. Although this switch has a similar structure to a regular electrical one, the difference is that changing the state of its internal contact requires mechanical force on the moving parts. A distinctive feature of limit switches is that they do not maintain their initial state; if there is no external force on them, they will return to their initial position.

Instead of being manually pressed, a limit switch needs mechanical action from a moving component to convert the mechanical motion into an electrical signal.

The inspiration for Calibur Switch

With the wide range of pop-up wallets’ material and design, trigger mechanisms such as a push-button, a slide, or a toggle are popular.

However, with the view to becoming a unique brand, our classy TheCalibur wallets don't have any buttons or switches to fan card out. Instead, taking inspiration from a limit switch, we made our “trigger mechanism”. 

If an electrical or mechanical device turns on by mechanical effect on a limit switch, our Calibur, only needs to slide the “mechanical part” - the money clip on the back of the wallet, then you can access your cards within a few seconds. Not only does it make a difference to our products, but it also provides users with the finest experience. 

Never give up on upgrading our product lines, and care for the tiniest details in production, The Calibur always wants to bring you the most excellent wallet ever.
