Proto-PIC presents a geeky spin on 'Dia de los Muertos' with The Day of the Geek soldering badge kit. If you have basic soldering skills and tools, you can assemble this simple kit in just over 5 minutes. It comes with 3 pairs of coloured LEDs, giving you the choice of red, white, or blue eyes. The kit takes the Day of the Dead theme and gives it a more geeky look. Note that the CR2032 battery is not included. What's in the kit: 1 Skull PCB, 2 Red LEDs, 2 Blue LEDs, 2 White LEDs, 1 CR2032 Battery holder, and 1 Pin back. What's not included: CR2032 Battery, Soldering Iron, Solder, Pliers, and Flush cutters. There's also a 'How to assemble' guide available.
To use this soldering badge kit, first, gather all the necessary tools like a soldering iron, solder, pliers, and a flush cutter, along with a CR2032 battery (not included). Then, start assembling the components on the Skull PCB according to the 'How to assemble' guide. You can choose the colour of the LEDs for the eyes - red, white, or blue. When soldering, be careful not to touch the hot soldering iron to avoid burns. After assembling, if you want to store the badge, keep it in a dry place away from direct sunlight. If you notice any loose parts, you can re - solder them. Also, remember to replace the battery when it runs out.
