"My pleasure, happy to help :)
I’ve been there multiple times with certain items I remember from the past but don’t know the name of. It’s so much easier to find things when you know what they were called!

"Really, ive been looking for this silly thing for years! YEARS, like some obsessed archeologist.... I thank you all for lending an effort, I can finally sleep at night....."
"Yeah, with sound input via microphone or direct stereo cable connection, something vibrates in the base of the lamp which causes the balls to spin in an orbit-like motion to the sound. You can just hum into the microphone continuously to get them to…"
