What was the device?

TowardsTheFuture ,

Going by price and that the only description was beeping: www.amazon.com/…/ref=asc_df_B08KG6XHN1?tag=bngsmt…

Probably right because they said it sounded like a cricket.

Probably this, going off of the price and description in the article.

Sounds like an annoyatron or a clone. A tiny device that randomly beeps with a time interval just long enough to be hard to find and annoying. They’ve been around for a couple decades.

The good ones don’t even use the same time interval each time. They’re all over a minute or two, but sometimes like 5 or 6 minutes. They’re truly diabolical.

I’ve seen ones that also have a photosensor so you can set it to only make noise if the lights are out.

Once upon a time I wired up a tiny little audio mux and attached it to my boss’s speakers, along with a bluetooth receiver. I was able to use my phone to inject random Mario sound effects into his music stream all day.

He was convinced he had a virus so he unplugged his audio from the computer, and to his surprise the speakers kept playing sounds sporadically.
