## Description

A battery-free wireless switch that generates its own power from the mechanical energy of each button press. The built-in micro power generator and energy storage circuit capture kinetic energy, store it, and transmit a BLE 5.3 beacon signal — no batteries, no wiring, no maintenance. Each switch has a unique 6-byte address code for secure, interference-free transmission. Compatible with ESP32 and other Bluetooth-enabled microcontrollers, as well as smartphones, making it easy to integrate into home automation, signalling, and IoT projects. Key Features No Battery Required – Self-powered via kinetic energy harvesting from each press BLE 5.3 Beacon – Broadcasts on advertising channels 37, 38, and 39 (2.4 GHz) Unique Address Code – 6-byte unique identifier for secure, interference-free operation 100,000 Press Lifespan – Designed for long-term, maintenance-free use No Dedicated Receiver Needed – Works with any BLE-capable device (ESP32, smartphone, etc.) Low Actuation Force – Typical 1,300 g with 1.3 mm press distance Fast Transmission – 1 Mbps with GFSK modulation for strong anti-interference performance Specifications Frequency: 2.4 GHz Advertising Channels: 37 + 38 + 39 (2402, 2426, 2480 MHz) Data Format: Supplier-customised Beacon Generated Energy: 250 µJ per press Actuation Force: ~1,300 g typical Press Distance: 1.3 mm Press Frequency: Up to 2 presses per second Communication Distance: >40 m (open outdoor, smartphone receiver) Module Weight: 14 g ± 2.5 g (excluding antenna) Module Dimensions: 44 × 22 × 11 mm Note: Pressing the switch more than twice per second may trigger a protection state, requiring approximately 10 seconds to reset.
