Anyone remember brain machine light glasses for relaxation and where I could buy one?

Before the Internet (so I know I didn't get it from Amazon) I had something called a Brain Machine. You wore it like a pair of glasses and it flashed lights onto your closed eyelids - different pulsing for various states you wished to achieve. I remember alpha waves for relaxation. It was wonderful and I'd use it for 20 mins when I was tired during the day; it was really refreshing. It vanished during a burglary and I've been yearning for another one ever since. Off and on, for decades. The yearning is upon me now and so I'm asking you all - did you ever have anything like this? Does anyone know where I can get one? I've googled and no luck. Perhaps they are called something else now.

Never heard of these but I'm intrigued so I'm posting to help bump your thread and in the hope someone knows what you are on about so I can look at purchasing as well!

Thank you - I looked on Amazon but under 'Brain Machine' so no luck. This is just what I want but is far too expensive. The one I had aeons ago cost £70 so I was hoping they'd got cheaper! I hope to find aa more basic device. I'll keep looking.
