> 3 dayExcellent 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 !

> 3 dayI was very pleased with this product. My son was thrilled with it. I highly recommend it. I most likely will buy more and in another color. Very clever!

Greater than one weekThis was a really cool thumb drive but... This was totally my fault, but I had forgotten to take them out of my jeans and left them in the wash, when I came back it was all smashed up! Broken glass and pieces everywhere. LEDs still function though. I didnt even consider the glass casing around the tube, I can imagine dropping it on the ground would break it as well. Anyway, just wanted to warn/remind people to treat this as an actual vacuum tube and not a thumb drive.

> 3 dayThis was a gift for my husband and could not have been more perfect. Sturdy, handsome, lights up when plugged into usb. For radio/tech buffs this is both useful and decorative. It even came with a cute wooden stand for safe-keeping when not in use.

Greater than one weekYes, its a bit of a novelty, but for a guy my age who grew up with tube radios and amplifiers this Pentode radio tube/32GB SanDisk flash drive is great. The little wooden stand is nice as well. It made it thru shipping just fine.

> 3 dayIts 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.
