Is the DIY option a physical kit?
No. It is a digital files and firmware path for makers building their own beacons.
01
What the DIY option is for
The DIY files are for builders who are comfortable with electronics, printing, firmware, troubleshooting, and finishing their own tabletop hardware.
02
What is included
The DIY product is a digital build path rather than a finished hardware bundle.
- Printable housing files
- Firmware access
- Activation for up to 10 tabletop beacons for one user
- A maker-friendly path for customization and experimentation
03
Finished hardware is still the default
If your main goal is improving game night, buy the finished beacons. If your main goal is building and customizing the hardware, the DIY files are the better fit.
04
Shipping and availability
Finished hardware is currently US-only. DIY digital files are available for US and international customers because there is no physical shipment.
