			Oddly, [[Rayman]] can still use the Ting Finder 9000's [[flashlight]] feature when he has the [[shotgun]] in his hands, although it may be an oversight.

	[[Globox]] also owns a Ting Finder as revealed in the game's introduction, as he took his own to go collect [[Ting]]s in [[Noseless Rayman]]'s mansion. He's also seen holding a Ting Finder 9000 in the ending, being either his own or the one [[Rayman]] brought and replaced with the [[shotgun]].

			* In ''[[Return to The Spooky Raymansion]]'''s early development, [[Rayman]] carried a simple [[flashlight]] instead, and the [[power-up]] icons were to be restricted to a corner of the game's user interface. Somehow, the remaining battery icon was displayed on top of the [[flashlight]], glowing as it does on the Ting Finder 9000.

Mortamon Saturn: Created the page for the Ting Finder device from The Spooky Raymansion series.

Created the page for the Ting Finder device from The Spooky Raymansion series.

The '''Ting Finder''' is a device appearing in each of the [[The Spooky Raymansion|the Spooky Raymansion games]] with the exception of [[The Spooky Raymansion 3]], guiding its user to the [[Ting|Tings]] nearby.

It takes a unique appearance in every game and functions in different ways depending on the version of the Ting Finder. It is also always available to [[Rayman]] by default, except when he's holding [[Shotgun|a weapon]].

==In The Spooky Raymansion==
The original Ting Finder appears in the form of an electronic map, requiring to be held with both hands. It displays the near layout of the maze, the positions of [[Ting|Tings]] and [[Rayman]], and how many [[Ting|Tings]] are remaining.

==In The Spooky Raymansion 2==
[[File:The Spooky Raymansion 2 Game Jolt Screenshot 2.png|thumb]]
The second version of the Ting Finder is much smaller and appears more similar to a remote with a radar. It points to the [[Ting|Tings]] in the current level prioritizing the nearest ones, and displaying how many of them are remaining. It also gives some instructions such as finding a [[Key]] or a door.

Once [[Rayman]] collects [[Rayman IV]], the Ting Finder malfunctions, vibrating with static noises, its arrow constantly spinning and displaying random characters sometimes spelling out the word "[[Noseless Rayman|NOSE]]".

==In Return to The Spooky Raymansion==

The Ting Finder returns in [[Return to The Spooky Raymansion|the fourth Spooky Raymansion]] as the '''Ting Finder 9000'''. This evolved version of the device is more similar to a mixture of its predecessors and of a handheld console.

He's also seen holding a Ting Finder 9000 in the ending, being either his own or the one [[Rayman]] brought and replaced with the [[Shotgun]].

==Trivia==
* The Ting Finder appears to be based on {{rw|Robo-Pirate}} technology, and serves a similar purpose to the {{rw|Lums Radar}} from {{rw|Rayman Revolution|Rayman 2 Revolution}}, being dedicated to [[Ting|Tings]] instead of {{rw|Yellow Lum|Yellow Lums}}.
* It also has a similar function to the different item locators found in some of [[Ryemanni]]'s games, such as [[Rayman: The Dark Magician's Reign of Terror]], [[Rayman Redemption]] and [[Rayman ReDesigner]].
* The Ting Finder in [[The Spooky Raymansion 2]] is the only one which does not have its name written on it, probably due to being the smallest.
* Despite not appearing in [[The Spooky Raymansion 3]], the [[Lantern]] from this game was the precursor to the Ting Finder 9000's flashlight function.
* The Ting Finder 9000 may also take some inspiration from the [[Flashlight]] from [[Globox Terror: Escape of the Lumar Eclipse]] for this same feature.
* The Ting Finder 9000's name might be a reference to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It%27s_Over_9000! "It's Over 9000!"] meme.
