Issue dossier
The roster and 2026 maker video use the exact Star Trek SAO Phaser v2.2 name, while the live product listing says v2.2 was made for DC31 and follows a 2019 v1. No reviewed source publishes a 2026 BOM, board revision, production label, serial range, change log, component/finish/packaging comparison, or explicit statement that the planned DEF CON 34 units are identical to the older product listing.
A linkable camp-impact record with badge context, severity, evidence confidence, and source notes.
