The UC defines "equipment" as things costing >$5000 (including tax) or having a useful life more than 1 year. Equipment cannot be purchased under lab recharge (even if it is replacing equipment that is broken).  Repairs can be purchased under lab recharge (see Molly or Ben before trying to do this).  Lab supplies (fiber cleaning tape, wipes, solvents) can also be purchased using lab funds.
