This was certainly an oddity!! Wind chimes constructed of plastic equipped with a contact sensor that would enable the onboard "chime" sounds. All powered by six AA batteries. Well, the chimes are more an electronic approximation of acoustic wind chimes and their timbre doesn't alter much so I don't think this item ever really took off and replaced the real thing. Not the most attractive appearance either and it is a bit unwieldy, weight wise. Realistic/Radio Shack marketed this product but I have not been able to pinpoint exactly when or for how long. Nice try.
