Hi, unfortunately I don't have time and patience for doing BOM's on all of my projects but in this case it's not very hard as the external component count is greatly reduced by using the NRF51822 RF SOC which is a PTR5518 module from Aliexpress. Other than that there is the Microchip touch sense controller - MTCH105 and the usual smd resistors(0603) and caps. Other than that you're not forced to use and solder the onboard dc-dc converter so you don't have to worry about those components - you just need to solder the 3V_EN jumper to use the Livolo 3V output coming from the main relays/power supply board.
In deep Sleep the cunsumption is below 19ยตA, but i have to send with PA_MAX. On some Windows the open/close frequency is verry high, so the battery is to fast emty.
The CR2032 is good, but i want more "lifetime"
I think you need to post a clear drawing or photos of the setup and the code you are using.
I donlt know what you mean by "connecting the current in series" nor what "AC regulator" you are using or what "thermal serial currenr" is.

Both need protection (internal or external) from excessive discharge (or excessive charge, and short circuits etc)
That is where our new library to check battery level goes in, we could dream to have an internal mysensor security check of a LiPo battery ! they do so in 'copters
I may pass on that. I'm not used to software glitches having quite so much potential impact, and I don't need to save every gram. But to each their own!
@Andrew-Currie Downloaded KiCad and used it to import jBoard2.brd and output .gbr files via Plots plus the .drl file. Checked using GerbView and uploaded to PCBWay. Hopefully this will now work...

Looks cool! Do you have experience with capacities switches? I did not play much with them. afraid to use close to AC interference though...
You need to use a capacitive IC with active shielding, basically you have an extra electrode around your touch electrode and the touch IC will compare capacitive change of the touch electrode with capacitive change from the shield electrode. If the change is due to electrical interference then both electrodes will be changed in a similar way and the IC will not trigger.
