It might be something that, in a vacuum, doesn't use electricity, but it's fairly useless unless it is used in conjunction with some other item that does require it - thus, it indirectly requires it.

That "can be round, sometimes" made me think of playdoh

A frozen entree needs to be heated/cooked, but you don't use electricity directly on the product.

I wondered about some hand warmer or heating bean bag that goes in the microwave.

But doesn't really fit with Q14 as they are not "used" with something that requires electricity.

14. Is used with something that requires electricity

So, maybe it is some hand-held attachment of a device. The attachment is useless without the main tool/appliance, and the tool/appliance needs electricity to run.

Just throwing things out hoping we might stumble on this..

Could it be made of... cloth/wool/similar? Some kind of clothing/accessory? A snowball? A lump of coal? I'm just throwing out random things I think of in the hope that it triggers a thought from someone else.
