Greycademy 2026 Hackbadge maker-reported completed repair; full scope unverified

production and firmware lifecycle

The maker reports an early coin-cell brownout issue and says more than 200 already programmed badges were reprogrammed before distribution to improve battery life. This records a bounded field-repair history, not a released firmware, recipe, full validation result, or proof of universal final-unit parity.
