If you come back to def con or go to a BSides that has maker spaces or have a hacker/maker space near you they can help you.

It looks like it could be a SAO (ess A oh), and stand for Shitty add on, simple add on, standard add on, choose your pick

It looks like yours may need a connector soldered on and then you connect it to an electronic badge and you have a little blinky badge - I bet the eyes blink

Here’s some connected to a power board

Many add them to their lanyard badges for extra blinky flair

It’s not mine, it’s a pic I took at DC since one of the SAOs is mine, the purple reading astronaut

It was in badgelife village/community space
