> 3 dayWhen 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.

> 3 dayLooks great and really works. When not in use a cradle is supplied to rest the piece for protection from rolling off of the table. I use it more for a conversation piece and backup of some of my important PhotoShop files.

> 3 dayI bought two of these and just love them ! They came well packaged and a week earlier than the original date that I got (they come from over seas). Quality is excellent, and they work as expected. They are a little fat, so you cant put several side by side in every slot on most USB boards.. even the little boxes made by the same company.. but they are just cute as bugs... ! They are a bit pricey too for USB memory sticks, but they are really just fun, useful and nice to have. They come with a matching protective end cap.. a little wooden stand, and draw string bag. I use one to just light up a shelf where I have one of my USB hubs, gives enough light I can see where the port holes are. Makes a great gifts, even if you have some already ! If you just want them for fun and the shinny color lights, just get them in the smaller memory sizes and save a few bucks.

> 3 dayI wish I could rate higher for value for the money, but $1per gig is not the best deal running for memory. Same for sturdiness. Its made of glass. If those criteria matter to you then this might not be for you. However, I can say I absolutely love this and it works great too. Cant count how many people get a kick out of it and ask where I got it.

> 3 daythe piece looks pretty good just like the picture, however this is the sad part it comes with a little wooden support, it was all broken I assume due to shipping there seems to be something not properly assembles inside the bulb since I have to plug it just right on the USB port for the light to come on, and even when that happens windows wont detect the device plugged in so I assume there is an even bigger issue going on, now I am trying to return the item and apparently my return needs to be evaluated by the seller, which is not something you would expect when buying on amazon, and its really not about the money, I was really looking forward to this thing for the great look that is has, which it still does but its not functional at all, sad really UPDATE the seller reach out to me and will be sending a replacement, looks like the issue happened with the shipping, will post an update once the new piece gets here UPDATE 2 the new unit came in today, seems to work flawlessly, and looks really nice, the seller was very kind in sending a replacement ASAP

30-11-2024It was exactly as pictured, transfer speeds were as expected of USB 3.1. My USB ports have a dedicated power source, so the transfer speed may be faster stock USB ports. I took a risk and bought 2, very happy with the result. Just dont drop it, its real glass.
