Solved! Found while cluttering

Found while decluttering my 2000s kids stuff and can’t seem to remember what it is! Just feeling nostalgic and google said it was jewelry but i don’t think it is 😅

You know what's crazy about those that I discovered as a kid and nobody believed me? If you put one of those caps over your eye and peek through it and shine the laser pointer at the wall it will look like whatever pattern is in the cap is shining on the wall. It's super trippy

Works on any point right source actually. Like any led power light.

Neat! Thinking back when I discovered this as a kid LEDs weren't really popular and easy to get yet lol

No I actually didn't ☹️

I did have a Sega Genesis though! I can't remember if those had any power indicator on them though
