Unigeek - Unicorn Soldering Badge Kit

Get a little magical with your soldering skills! The Unigeek is a beginners soldering kit that teaches you the basics of PTH and SMD soldering while assembling a light up unicorn badge with an color changing eye. Each Unigeek kit takes about 5-15min to assemble with basic soldering materials (not included), and yes, the PCB in this kit really is rainbow colored out of the bag!

Every Unigeek Soldering Badge Kit includes one multicolored unicorn PCB, a CR2032 battery holder, a pin back, and an RGB LED for the eye that slowly changes colors while powered on. All you need to supply (besides a soldering iron and solder) is a CR2032 coin cell battery since it is not included to make shipping easier.

Note: Since this product is a kit, assembly and a basic knowledge of soldering will be required. The Unigeek Badge does not come pre-assembled.

  • 1x Unigeek Unicorn PCB
  • 1x Color Changing Rainbow LED
  • 1x SMD CR2032 Battery Clip
  • 1x Badge Pin and Clip

Excellent starter project

I purchased this as a quick project to teach my 8 yr. old granddaughter how to solder. She loves Unicorns, so it was the perfect first time project. She is excited to do more.
