Prove weighted ball in $l^2$ space is compact

Multi tool use
$begingroup$
Let $B subseteq l^2$, $B=left{xin l^2:sum_{ngeq1}n|x_n|^2leq1right}$, show that $B$ is compact.
My thought: $B$ is closed in $l^2$ which is complete. Then $B$ is complete. It suffices to show $B$ is totally bounded. I think we need to first get rid of the infinite tail sum, i.e., bound all sequences with balls centered at sequences that only have finitely many terms. And then find a ball cover for the finite sequences. But I don't know how to bound the tail sum and I'm stuck.

Theorem. Let $pin[1,+infty]$ and $Msubseteqell_p$ be a bounded subset such that
$$
limlimits_{Ntoinfty}sup{Vert (0,0,ldots,0,x_N,x_{N+1},ldots) Vert_p:xin M}=0
tag{1}$$
then $M$ is totally bounded.
For the proof, see an answer of that question: How to show that this set is compact in $ell^2$.
The theorem provides a characterization of totally bounded subsets of $ell_p$.
Let’s apply it to $B$.
For $xin B$, we have
$$Vert xVert_2 = sum_{nge1} vert x_n vert^2 le sum_{nge1} nvert x_n vert^2 le 1$$ proving that $B$ in included in the closed ball centered on the origin with radius equal to one. Hence $B$ is bounded.
We’ll be done if we prove that $B$ satisfies condition $(1)$ of theorem above.
For $x in B$
$$Nsum_{kge N} vert x_kvert^2 le sum_{kge N} kvert x_kvert^2 le sum_{kge 1} kvert x_kvert^2 le 1$$
Therefore
$$sup{Vert (0,0,ldots,0,x_N,x_{N+1},ldots) Vert_2:xin B} le 1/N$$ and condition $(1)$ is satisfied.
$B$ is totally bounded. And also complete as being a closed subset of a complete space.
Finally $B$ is compact.
