Nub Alternative

[LegoTechniker]

Hi

An alternative for the Nubs.
The aktual ones are now working but 1 million cycles and a pushbutton are better.
And if they fail only the Nub and not the Sensor has to be changed.
But double sided mounting could be a problem.

Strikes me the current nub design is over complex, a hall sensor has a *lot* of advantages but could be costly - then I bet the current design costs a fortune.

I wonder if there was a model of Pandora without nubs what the price difference would be?
