        Got one as a gift for Christmas in the early 00’s.

        It generally worked, but you needed to be pretty loud, and things could accidentally trigger it.

        I bought one just for shits sometime in the 90s, it sure wasn't the most reliable.

          It was pretty useful until I had an argument with my mom and the lights would constantly turn off and on.

            I got one as a Christmas gag gift back around 2015-16 and had it hooked up to a lamp for awhile. Like what other folks have said, you had to be pretty loud with it, and I definitely had it trigger when I didn’t want it to. But still, it’s a fun gimmick. I must’ve lost it at some point during a move, because I lost it a few years ago and kinda wish I still had it

                My grandfather was a gadget guy, so the year these came out everyone in the family got one. I used mine for a couple years with varying amounts of success.

                  I was sometimes able to get it to work by making a quick loud vocal sound.

                    Loved my clapper. More reliable at turning the lights on and off than Google Home.

                      My grandparents had one in their bedroom.

                      one night I had to go to the bathroom and saw the lights under the door were flipping on and off repeatedly.

                      😶

                          No that was too bougie for us, but I did have a string that I had tied from my bed to the light switch. And honestly why did they take away our sticky outy light switches?

                                    Friends had one. They had a yappy dog. The light would turn off and on when th dog barked.

                                        No, but for some reason, I still clap to turn lights on or off.
