Description

Peppercon 9 is a badge addon in the shape of a pepper. Blinged out with 71 LEDs, it shows the pepper way brightly while doing so power efficiently.

What is Peppercon?

Peppercon is not a con, but is a group of people who have come together under the banner of the pepper. We enjoy and bring the heat and would love to share the spice with you.

Finished more for Supercon 8

At DC32, pepper people finished the main hardware assembly of the peppers. A small amount of work remained for final distribution. I am happy to say I’ll be bringing over 40 complete pepper addons to Supercon.

Unofficial pepper challenge maybe?

Will be looking to trade and sell them no matter if you do or don’t want a tingly tongue.
