Today's mystery object

[Harry Bloomfield]

Anyone happen to recognise this? It charges via usb, with the progress of the charge shown on a little white display, 0 to 100%. The are no buttons on it, just a battery visible, and two pins poking out of the pcb, though the pcb seems to suggest, it originally had four pins. There are two components, identified on the pcb, as 'mic1' and 'mic2', with a series of three holes, on the plastic case, opposite end to the pcb

PA, with Mic 1 and 2 would suggest something to do with a Public Address system.

Years ago... many years ago... I was in a rock band. The singer (who was much too old to be hanging with us) had something that looked a bit like this and it was an 'echo' machine. It effectively made a single word sound like an alpine rescue call.
No? I tried at least!

Probably not, but no way to confirm it. I've found that if I press on mic2, it shows 100% and a battery symbol, then soon after flashes a sort of teardrop icon, with Lo. Doing likewise on mic 1, also show 100% and the battery symbol, but it reverts to showing 14% with a teardrop symbol. Pressing the mics, doesn't seem to be a fault, it does it reliably. The battery is a 3.7v 17350 3.15wh.

This was the kind of thing. You can see the similarities, but the scale is all wrong. Anyone else?

 

[Ollyfp]

Or this?

Flux capacitor?

Does this help ?

Does this help ?

Yep, spot on, but I'm still puzzled by what it is? Obviously, something to do with a Raspberry (raspberry pi. maybe?).

Hayati, seems to be something to do with vaping, but that doesn't seem to quite fit with it having, what appear to be - two microphones.

It's the insides of this Vape
