Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	One example cap assembly includes a printed circuit board ("PCB") having first and second electrical contacts; a switch coupled to the PCB at the first electrical contact, the switch comprising a switching member comprising: a coupling feature coupling a first end of the switching member to the PCB at the first electrical contact; a first portion extending adjacent to the first side of the PCB from the coupling feature; a second portion extending through an opening through the PCB; and a third portion extending adjacent to the second side of the PCB; a second electrical contact formed on the second side of the PCB; wherein: the third portion of the switching member contacts the second electrical contact in a rest position, the third portion biased towards the rest position; and deflection of the first portion towards the PCB causes the third portion to break contact with the second electrical contact.
