Adafruit PyBadge Low Cost Starter Kit

The Adafruit PyBadge LC is a compact, all-in-one kit perfect for creating portable gaming, electronics projects, or customizable name-tag systems. Enclosed in a credit card-sized form factor, this device runs CircuitPython, MakeCode Arcade, or Arduino with ease, making technology accessible without breaking the bank.

This low-cost version retains essential features of the original PyBadge, including a powerful processor chip, QSPI Flash, on/off switch, buttons, a buzzer, a light sensor, and a battery circuit. Its streamlined design focuses on affordability by excluding certain components, such as Feather headers and JST STEMMA connectors.

The kit includes a 3.7V 420mAh Lithium Ion Polymer Battery for portability, a double-hook lanyard for wearability, and a 3-foot USB cable for recharging and reprogramming needs. The PyBadge LC is ideal for beginners keen to explore electronics or as a thoughtful hackerspace gift. From coding small games to creating interactive exhibits, this device invites endless possibilities.
