Handmade 64GB Orange Pentode Electron Vacuum Tube USB 3.1 Flash Drive with Wood Stand. Steampunk/Industrial Style

For an old geek like me, having replaced tubes a few decades ago in our family TV, this is nifty. Couple of things: This is round, not flat, so if you have a group of stacked USB ports, this will use one and block the adjacent one(s). Also, this is shipped registered mail, so if your USPS office is incompetent like mine, you may have a challenge while they try to find the package. The packaging is well done and it made the trip across the pond in good shape. Came with a nice wooden cradle suitable for desk jewelry.

They loved it, It was given as a gift

Its excellent quality and workmanship; and it looks just like the photo. Whoever made this product is a perfectionist. I bought one orange and one blue. They are both really cool! I particularly like the orange one because its reminiscent of the original glow of a working vacuum tube. Delivery to California only took a week. I was amazed.

This product does take a few weeks to receive but in my opinion its worth it, great gift for a radio tube enthusiasts

Works fine both visually and as a fully functional flash drive, and only took 10 days shipping time to California. This is a great gift for audio enthusiasts who have or aspire to have tube-amps, or electronics geeks with vintage equipment, or just regular folks with a PC who like unusual stuff. I chose the orange flavor because it most closely resembles the appearance of actual tubes. The audiophile friend I gave one to really gets a kick out of it.

If you like old tubes and steampunk then this is for you. Lights up when inserted into USB slot. Just cool. And a little wooden stand for it.

Excellent USB 2 key simulating a Pentode vacuum tube. Very well designed, pleasant look, and seems rock solid. Light (not flashing) when connected to a compter. It is delivered with a software to protect data. A bit heavy compared to other similar keys, probably due to the use of metal. Work very well and does not get warm (I copied 50 GB). I am positively surprised. Performances according to Parkdale for file transfert of 1 MB (blok of 1 MB) : - writing rate : 4.6 MBytes/sec, down to 2.8 MBytes/sec after 3 minutes or even less. - reading rate : 13-29 MBytes/sec, average near 30 MBytes/sec It is not a record but un the market average. Again ? Yes, small is beautiful !

works great love the old look of it , fun using it

When I was growing up, vacuum tubes were the norm and they had to be replaced every so often. When your TV wasnt working right, you could take out the tubes and take them to almost any store to get them tested and replaced. I was always fascinated by vacuum tubes. As a flash drive, this works exactly as any flash drive works, but it looks beautiful to me. People younger than 30, wont appreciate it, but it reminds me of simpler times.

Well crafted. Definitely recommend.
