Staples Talking EASY BUTTON - Complete Red/Silver

This button is AMAZING! My boss has one, so of course I had to get one too... because I'm just that kind of employee...lol... riiiiight.I had an idea, so I carefully peeled off the rubber feet, unscrewed it, gently pulled the wires out, and replaced its guts with those of the "BS" button by doing a little creative soldering, trimming of internal plastic (under "easy"), and use of a rubber band to hold the pressure button from the easy button in place on the BS button after soldering the wires (see below for walk-through).A switcheroo when he was out of his office, and presto: an innocuous looking button that lets out a random phrase letting you know what it REALLY was (hint: not easy)! That was easy.DISCLAIMER: I work in an agency with a "high ops-tempo" and difficult cases where "everything is a crisis," and most importantly, a boss who gets my sense of humor. Try this at your own risk.------Remove feet from easy button, set aside (don't lose), sticky side up.Separate halves of buttons, and carefully remove wires from easy button board (leaving them on the battery pack and speaker for ease), and BS button board.Wire Connections:Easy Buttonblack-VSSwhite- VDDRed- SpeakersBS ButtonBlack- GNDRed- VCCWhite- SpeakersI recommend soldering to the back of the BS board (just find the appropriate spot and solder- it beats trying to jam wires into the board- good luck with that)Your red wires become speaker wires, so solder those to their proper spot on the BS button.Blk stays blk, so just solder that wire to the GND spot.The white wire goes to where the red used to go, so solder that to the VCC spot.You left the yellow and blue wires dangling from the LED on the BS button shell, so don't worry about those. They don't get used.Loosely screw your Frankenstein's Monster's Trojan Button's guts down in one spot using an existing screw hole- button side down. Leave room to slide the metal plate back in place (it's makes a pop/click noise when you press the button, and is necessary for a convincing transformation).Now would be a good time to affix the pressure switch (the rubber button from the top of the easy button). It will work on the BS button board to complete the circuit. I used a rubber band to hold the pressure switch in place (loop it around the middle of the board from one side of the switch, and back over the switch to hold it down).On the back of the easy button's red shell there are four posts. You'll have to clip them almost all the way down. If you've tried to screw it down before now (impatient, aren't we), you'll have noticed that it doesn't fit. Keep clipping until it fits snugly over the top and you can slide the metal plate back under the guts so when it's all assembled the pressure pushes the guts down onto the pressure switch and clicks the plate at the same time). Screw it back together, and replace the feet.Let the fun begin!

A productivity coach recommended the Easy Button for wrapping up a work session, whether 90 minutes of deep concentration on a project or 10 minutes devoted to a task you’ve been procrastinating on.10 minutes takes a bite out of it and gets it going. Even workouts. It’s fun to congratulate myself with “That was easy!” to mark a small goal accomplished.

My cleaning lady ( and friend) loves the EASY BUTTON... Just before she leaves my apartment ,which she makes clean and sparkly, she pushes this button to hear it say "That was easy" .. and laughs and laughs!! .. She loves it so much I bought one for her to take home or keep in the car! or take to the Dentist !!!Thanks for the great fun! Every Representative at the United Nations should have any one of the available selection except the Vulgar one.. you know which one that is.. Take it out off the line up!

Just what I needed for my desk. The only reason for 4 stars is it has a few second delay from the time you push the button to the time it says anything. Not a major issue but can be annoying

this button and others are for family fun, I also purchased a bell. when breakfast is ready we ring the bell and say ORDERRRR UP! I have a downes syndrome child. She likes pushing the buttons and hear the responses, and we do also as we pass the table. So, weird or not.. something my family gets some relief from playing these buttons, When you complete a task... press... That was easy button....

Particularly since I am a metaphysical hypnotherapist and i teach people how to create happy, healthy and successful futures with grace and ease, (rather than through hardship and struggle which is what we have been programed to believe that life has to be) so these buttons are a very fun and a powerful reminder of how life is supposed to be. "That Was Easy!"So, what i would say about many years of ordering cool stuff like this from Amazon is...wait for it...That Was Easy!! :-)

Bought this for our toddler classroom to have on the wall I bathroom for potty trining.purpodes and it has been a complete success. They love to hit the button after using the big boy/girl potty. It has helped to potty train several of.our students. Definitely recommend this idea to other preschool/toddler teachers.
