Before Psion Teklogix releases a product, our engineering team exposes that product
through a series of severe testing to ensure that it will survive in the rugged environments in
which our products are typically used. These tests usually include shock and vibration
testing as well as IP testing for water and dust, electrical shock, etc.
If a third party vehicle mount is used, the third party should perform the same type of testing
in order to ensure that the design will maintain the factory specifications of the product. If
the third party company is unwilling to perform the necessary testing and take responsibility
