Review on A Christmas Story Clapper - Nightlight Leg Lamp, Says Movie Quotes, Wireless Sound Activated On/Off Light Switch, Clap Detection, Perfect For Kitchen/Bedroom/TV/Appliances, 120 V Wall Plug, Smart Home by Robert Ducki

My daughter was watching The Dog Who Saved Halloween (2011) and in that movie, the dad claps and the lamp turns off. She was amazed. I told her those things actually exist. She then told me she wanted one for her birthday!I ended up getting her one to install in her room (not for her birthday - just a surprise) and showed her how it worked.Overall works as intended. But. the sounds needed to trigger it are very specific and yet very random.1) Doesn't work when you want it to.2) Does work when you don't expect it to (loud noises, falling objects, etc)3) Can be very difficult to trigger when noises are happening in the room.What I have learned though is: - Don't clap too fast. 2 (or 3) clear, separate claps work best. - Works best when not hidden in a corner. I have mine tucked between a side table and bed. Sometimes won't register your claps if you're not in clear line of sight (sound?). - A super easy way to trigger it is tapping the box itself. When my daughter is asleep and I need to turn off the light -- instead of clapping, I simply tap the box twice and it works just the same.My daughter does get frustrated sometimes when it doesn't work right away. But overall was a fun investment.
