Plasma-tastic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Discovery Plasma Orb is an interactive light with electric waves that follows touch or voice. It responds to physical contact with a touch of a fingertip, speaking, or even to music playing.
It's so enjoyable to watch the colorful pink and purple strands of light gather around my finger, or simply jump around on their own.
This is definitely not a toy. It's STEM science equipment for older children and adults. I remember having one in junior high science class at school. It teaches physics and chemistry. It's fun to learn about plasma, noble gases, and electric currents with this delightfully fascinating plasma orb.
The plasma orb comes with a manual that thoroughly explains all of the safety concerns in great detail, as well as a power adapter.
I display my Discovery Plasma Orb on a shelf near a speaker and enjoy watching it dance and respond to the music.

A captivating STEM toy for all ages

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This toy captivates everyone and provides a tactile experience. Hands on learning via the small Tesla coil inside, 12v power cord that allows this to also function as a lamp of sorts, and different user settings for reaction to touch or sound. This is a miniature version of the giant plasma orbs found in so many science museums. My kids are fascinated by this orb. Just remember that manufacturer’s instructions recommend no prolonged contact and no contact on the org surface with damp/wet skin. Very pleased and would absolutely recommend as a birthday gift for just about any kiddo.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This light is so cool. When you turn it on you can see the electrical currents and it gravitates towards wherever you touch the light. Awesome cool light, would be a great gift for a kiddo. I gave this to my son and he thinks it’s just the best thing ever!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter has this in her room and she is fascinated with watching it. It lights up really bright with beautiful colors. She is almost nine years old and enjoys watching it. She turns it on at night and keeps her entertained while she reads books in bed. It was easy to get it to work and very well made.

Looks and feels "cheap"
on May 20, 2021

from Avon, IN
Gender:Female
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't feel like it's as strong as other orbs as far as touching and the reaction it gives off. It also said it is sound and voice-activated and we tried everything from low volume to screaming with zero reaction from the orb. My 9-year-old still thought it was fun, but only for a short period of time. It was still neat to try out with her.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received my Plasma Orb 6inch last month. My grandchildren have had so much fun with this item. They are absolutely amazed at the colors and how the electricity follows their fingers and hands. This is truly provided hours and hours of fun for my grandkids.

Lights

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Everyone that visits is so in love with his. We have been using it now for almost a month and have had no issues. It crackles and zapes as you touch the ball and the lighting is amazing. Very lightweight.
