Curious…. feel free to reach out to me directly and I can send you the TimeHat image and you can re-flash it. For what it’s worth, the cards I all sent out initially were 64bit, so the would only work on the Pi2 and newer. If you want to run it on a first gen Pi or a Zero-W, you need the 32 bit image, and I have that as well.
