badge challenge and user-installed component surface
The guide says Badgey Bodgerton uses a supplied bodge wire plus a user-installed 3 mm LED, 1 kΩ resistor, and polarized buzzer in challenge work. It describes the parts and their badge-local challenge context without revealing answers or proving every badge shipped with identical parts, that a participant completed the work, or that any assembly is safe or successful.
