I'm planning on buying an LED poi and I can't decide whether I want a chain leash or not. What type of leash do you guys suggest?

Cole Cord is my personal favorite. I use it on my flowlights and contact poi.

Theirs lots of other options out there but this is my personal favorite.

It depends on the weight of the chain and the LED module. The module should be much heavier than the line it hangs from.

That's why cord is often a better choice than chain. That's also one of the reasons that glow 'sock' poi have always been popular.

Chain is also not as flexible as cord / fabric.

TBH I'd only use chain if:
- The LED module is extremely heavy.
- You want your LED poi to react more like your fire poi.
- You want to have interchangeable fire / LED heads on your poi.

Hope that helps smile

Thanks for your help guys.
I've decided to get a cord instead of a chain.
I do want interchangeable fire/ LED heads on my poi but I'm not going to start spinning fire for a while. I'll just buy another poi when the times comes.
Thanks again! smile
