POV: You wear a goofy suit to inspect the tiny parts that make or break your $500K startup 🤡 China trip was INTENSE. 3 days. 7 suppliers. 400 units on the line. The wildest part? A packaging facility that processes 150 units PER MINUTE. Our entire production run would take them less time than making instant ramen 🍜 But here’s the plot twist - we spent 3 HOURS with our aluminum supplier going over every… single… flaw from previous prototypes. Because in hardware, “good enough” doesn’t exist. Shoutout to Even Realities for keeping it real about the hardware struggle. If you know, you know. Those tiny potentiometers we stressed over? They control EVERYTHING about how modue feels to use. One bad component = game over. Friday: exhausted but locked and loaded Monday: final assembly begins Two years of work. One week to prove it. Who’s ready to see if we pull this off? 🚀 #startupwhistlr #manufacturingprocess #behindthescenes #hardwaredesign #buildingmodue
