Manufactured by (Unknown) for Right Aid
Last updated 11-03-20
The Glowing/Pulsating Eyeball is a novelty / seasonal product made specifically for Halloween.
It has a self-flashing RGB (red, green, and blue) LED in the "ball" portion that perform a "color wash" effect whenever the product is activated.
It comes in a hard plastic body and feeds from three LR44 button cells housed near the bottom of its handle.

To use the Glowing/Pulsating Eyeball, press the button on the handle until it clicks, then release it.
Perform the same action to neutralise it when you're finished using it.
Pressing the button more lightly (before it clicks) and then release it to turn it off to use it in momentary mode.
To change the batteries, use a small Phillips screwdriver (a size 00 or even 000 from a set of jeweler's screwdrivers ought to do the trick here) to unscrew the tiny screw holding the battery door on. Set the screw aside if it comes out (the battery door will come off without the screw being removed all the way). It is rather small and "vaccumable" so try not to drop it into the rug where it could fall prey to the hungry, hungry vaccum cleaner.
Remove the three petered-out LR44 button cells and dispose of or recycle them as you see fit.
Instll three new LR44 button cells, orienting them so that their button-ends (-) negatives face up toward the "eyeball".
Place the battery door back on, and screw in that itty bitty screw.
Done with that, fun ya!!!
Unable to measure current due to how the product was constructed and how it functions.
This is a Halloween novelty light, not a flashlight designed to be carried around, thrashed, trashed, and abused. So I won't stomp on it, try to drown it in the toliet bowl or the cistern, run over it, swing it against the concrete floor of an outdoor patio, use a small ball peen hammer in order to bash it open to check it for candiosity, fire it from the cannoñata, drop it down the top of Mt. Erupto (I guess I've been watching the TV program "Viva Piñata" too much again - candiosity is usually checked with a laser-type device on a platform with a large readout (located at Piñata Central), with a handheld wand that Langston Lickatoad uses, or with a pack-of-cards-sized device that Fergy Fudgehog uses; the cannoñata (also located at Piñata Central) is only used to shoot piñatas to piñata parties away from picturesque Piñata Island, and Mt. Erupto is an active volcano on Piñata Island {In the episode "Les Saves the Day...Again", Paulie Preztail says "Hey, ever wonder why this park's called 'Mount Erupto' anyway?", then Franklin Fizzlybear says "I think its an old native term. Means 'very safe.'"}), send it to the Daystrom Institute for additional analysis, or inflict upon it punishments that flashlights (that were born to be flashlights and nothing but flashlights) may have inflicted upon them.
So this section of the Glowing/Pulsating Eyeball's evaluation will appear SIGNIFICANTLY more bare than this section of the web page on a page about a flashlight.

PROS:
The price is most certainly right.
Reasonably bright considering what it does and those tiny LR44 button cells,
CONS:
It does have somewhat of a cheap or "chintzy" feel to it.
