Extra thick ABS walls give better weight and added protection; special "C" shaped PVC rings provide an impact barrier protecting the spinner and the unit from harsh knocks. Uses the more common size AA battery (1 required per unit) and uses circuitry that boosts the voltage to keep a constant light output until the battery becomes flattened. NiMh battery gives minimum 5+ hours of full brightness fun, far longer times can be obtained depending on the functions and modes used. A total of 84 colors/patterns. Mode 1. Rainbow, Slow Fade, RGB Flash, Multi-step chase, Triple phase rainbow. Mode 2. Solids, Multi-solid in multiple colors. Mode 3. Chase, cogs, stars... in multiple colors. Mode 4. Strobes, cogs, stars continued in multiple colors. Mode 5. Mixed solid and strobes, waves, and stars in multiple colors. Mode 6 and 7. Custom patterns the HOP team designed, see chart below for some examples. Mode 8. Demo mode, cycles through 40 patterns, each pattern 10 seconds long.

*How to Adjust the length of your Colecords*

Near the swivel pull the excess Colecord through the small circular ring to find your perfect spinning length. Then mark the place where you will cut the Colecord next to the small ring on the excess cord. Lengthen the excess Colecord to clearly show the mark then cut on the marked point. Melt the end of the Colecord with a lighter to prevent further fraying, a small circular dish of melted Colecord will suffice. Practicing the melting process can also be done on the excess off-cut of colecord before trying on your actual cords. Once the melted disk has cooled and hardened pull the Colecord tight to the desired length again so that the small melted dish sits tightly next to the ring. Happy spinning
