later DEF CON vendor product list
Nineteen-page Hacker Couture product list headed DEFCON 33 that repeats Dante's Inferno Badge at $100 with three-board, two-color-solder-mask, sixty-LED, CR123A, and one-SAO-port claims. It establishes a later vendor-list recurrence, not a second badge, organizer issuance, scheduled drop, completed sale, or image reuse permission.
