I haven't bought anything in a while so when I saw this I offered $20 and they accepted. It might look good if I can make it work in my display wall.

I've never even seen one and I'm a bit curious about it.

Really cute light and will display well.  :)

The installation instructions show a copyright date of 2002, and if you go to utube and enter the model # there is a vid showing them (screenshot #5 below).

Added additional screenshot (#6) as it gives dimensions, weight etc.

Show us a photo when you get it installed, hopefully you can catch a 'flash' photo for us on an incoming call.  :)

I got one earlier this year off ebay for a hearing-impared relative.  What I like about it is that it's a plug-in model instead of needing the 110AC hard-wired.  It doesn't even need to be mounted on a wall as it flashes pretty brightly when resting on a table or bookcase.
