Issue dossier
The maker-owned 5-dc34-canary-badge repository contains a PlatformIO Arduino source tree matching the Canary's components and public behavior outline, but reviewed product material does not directly link a commit or branch to the sold SAO. Its public release page reports no releases, and no root license file was recovered. The sources do not establish a final installed firmware, source-to-unit mapping, pinned dependency state, algorithm/library version, calibration state, binary provenance, update/recovery policy, safe operating procedure, or support commitment.
A linkable camp-impact record with badge context, severity, evidence confidence, and source notes.

first-hand Lepi Labs announcement
First-person Lepi Labs announcement naming the Volatile Organic Canary and its SGP40/display/RGB surface for DEF CON 34, plus planned Friday 12:30 PM and Saturday 2:30 PM BadgeLife Village drops. Reddit media is not a reusable image grant.

first-party Lepi Labs product listing
Lepi Labs' live Uberflux page names the DEF CON 34 drop, current $45 / 11-sold / zero-remaining state, sensor/display/controller/power claims, explicit novelty-only accuracy warning, VOC-index warmup statement, v1.0 revision notes, and remedy wording. Its product image has no stated reusable license or explicit permission basis.

maker-owned hardware and firmware source
Lepi Labs' public repository is named 5-dc34-canary-badge and contains a KiCad board/schematic tree plus a PlatformIO Arduino source tree whose SGP40, SHT4x, ATtiny1616, display, CR2032, SAO, and UPDI references align with the maker's Canary listing. The product page does not directly link the repository, so it is retained as a maker-owned matching source trail rather than proof of final v1.0 or event-unit parity. No root license file was recovered.

First-hand maker announcement corroborating the named product, SGP40 VOC-sensor, two-character display, RGB LED, DEF CON 34 association, and scheduled BadgeLife Village drops. It is not a technical release, calibration record, final stock ledger, delivery report, or image license.

Public maker-owned source archive named for a DC34 Canary. Its KiCad and PlatformIO trees contain components and software-family references matching the first-party Canary listing, but the maker's product and announcement do not directly link a revision to the event artifact. It is source context, not a final firmware, production, delivery, calibration, support, or image-rights record.

Primary live maker marketplace source for the current DEF CON 34 drop, $45 / 11-sold / zero-remaining snapshot, SGP40/SHT4x/display/RGB/ATtiny1616-S/UPDI/SAO-or-CR2032 claims, raw/VOC-index behavior, ten-minute warmup statement, explicit novelty-only non-accuracy warning, I2C-isolation revision, and v1.0 remediation terms. It does not establish final production, fulfillment, certified measurement, host compatibility, or image reuse permission.
