Munich · Germany · 2010
A source-backed record for the eHaserl, the Easterhegg 2010 surprise badge from the Munich Chaos Computer Club, with official assembly notes, flashing instructions, errata, and a badge talk.
Lifecycle
The wiki preserves alternative software links for Tetris Sound Track, TV-Bunny, and Ethersex, showing the badge as a small AVR software target beyond the default firmware.
The ATmega88 was already flashed with a USB bootloader so attendees could program it over a normal USB port with avr-gcc, avrdude, and the public SVN checkout.
The official wiki walks attendees through solder-bridge removal, LCD connector placement, ATmega88 socketing, IR parts, USB contact soldering, jumpers, and final display insertion.
Operational history
The dossier preserves the kind of practical hardware caveat that matters to badge hackers: assembly order and first-power-on state could damage the device.
The Germany record remains source-backed and image-free rather than copying source-page media, documentation screenshots, event photos, social media, placeholders, or generated approximations.
The current record keeps sourceable details while marking original-photo, full-BOM, and source-history recovery as future work.
This records the logistical side of early badge workshops: kits, batteries, and replacement parts shaped the attendee experience.
