With over 250 solar panels generating 50,000 Kilowatt hours a year, their equipment runs on solar power. AMBRO was recognized by Impressions Magazine for its green manufacturing practices. Adafruit hopes its open - source values and green initiatives make your purchasing decision easy and fun.

Using the KiCad skill badge is super easy. You can either iron it onto your clothing or sew it on. When ironing, make sure to follow the normal ironing instructions and apply enough heat and pressure to stick it firmly. If you choose to sew, use a needle and thread that match the color of the badge for a nicer look. As for maintenance, avoid exposing the badge to harsh chemicals or excessive moisture. You can gently clean it with a soft, damp cloth if it gets dirty. Keep it away from sharp objects to prevent scratches or tears. This badge is built to last, so with a little care, it'll be with you for a long time to show off your KiCad skills.
