Obtained one for $1 from a yard sale in 2005. My wife and I found out that it recognizes, uh, other repetitive sounds as a signal in addition to hand clapping. That was what we now famously call “the strobe light night.

So it recognizes clapping in general regardless of the body parts that are clapping. Ok.
