FAQs

  • When fully charged, the Debt Badge runs continuously at standard brightness for 8+ hours, so you can wear it all day! The max brightness setting is best suited for sunny outdoor events and lasts for a few hours. The Debt Badge can run indefinitely when connected with the included USB-C charging cable.

  • The national debt isn’t just a red or blue issue, and that’s why we ship with an urgent and neutral orange debt display. We may offer users the ability to change the debt font color in the future.

  • If you want to get the most up to date information about the national debt, you must connect to the web. Your Debt Badge pulls information from the US Treasury, and to do that it must connect to the web. But it does not have to be continuously connected. During offline periods, Debt Badge provides an estimated number of the debt based on its most recent reading from the Treasury. It then updates this number once it reconnects to the web. Initially connecting your Debt Badge to the web requires access to a home wireless connection and the use of your personal iPhone, Android device, Windows PC, or Mac machine.
