Plug to make light flash on and off?

Hi everyone!
When I was little my grandfather had a small red plug adaptor that we would plug the lite brite into to make it flash. It was about a inch or long and was plugged in between the light and the wall socket. Does anyone know where I can find one of these?.

I need one to plug into one of those red crosswalk hands to make it blink. It's going to hang in the garage to go on when the garage door opens. I need it to remind my wife to fold the mirrors in and lower the truck down so she doesn't hit the sides or roof of the truck (small garage)

Thanks for any help!

I think i got it off ebay a few years ago. I never really knew what do do with it until now. Now if i could just get it to flash...

Hmm that might work, I might have to pick one of those up. Thanks!

Does your sign use incans or LEDs?

It's a hand shape made out of LEDs

I was going to suggest a cheap Christmas light flasher
plug which should only cost a few bucks, and should be
available OTC except perhaps being out-of-season...

Depending on the current requirements, if these plugs are
designed for incan. strings, may or may not work with LEDs,
but I don't think any harm would come from trying.
