Description

The original FEEL FLUX Skill Set transformed this mesmerizing natural wonder into an intense skill challenge. Now, guided by input from the ultimate FEEL FLUX pro Klaus van Stegen, the Skill Set has been beautifully redesigned with a variety of innovative new features. There's actually a simple explanation for this gravity-defying effect. The little pinball is a piece of neodymium: a rare Earth metal with a very powerful magnetic force. Depending on the Feel Flux model, the cylinder is made of copper, aluminum, or pure silver. When the ball falls through the cylinder, the moving magnetic field changes inside the conductive material, based on a principle called Lenz's Law. This creates a voltage known as electromotive force that produces an additional magnetic field that resists the first one. This is why the ball slows down inside of the cylinder. The faster the ball moves, the stronger the resistant force becomes. Designed with a grey leather cover that seamlessly blends into the surface of the metal and complete with a special storage stand - The Feel Flux Original is a beautiful way to revitalize your sense of wonder in the universe.

If you learn anything from Thor, it’s that according to Arthur C. Clarke, “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic”. In that case, Feel Flux transmogrifies anyone who uses it into a sorcerer. Because even though it obeys all the known laws of physics including Lenz’s law, it still doesn’t make any sense.

Juggling is hard. Keeping those balls aloft against the relentless forces of gravity takes skill. But what if you could just make gravity work a little bit differently? With the Feel Flux, you can. Drop the magnetic ball into one of the aluminum tubes and astonishingly, the ball drastically slows its fall WITHOUT touching any part of the tube's surface! (Look up Lenz's Law to learn more about the science.) You can hold the ball between your thumb and finger and spin the ring around at different resistances too. Again it won't spin indefinitely, but it's just fun playing with the resistances.

This isn't a "spinner" product by any means. You'd be hard-pressed to get it to spin for any real length of time. The real magic in this product is the magnetic ball in the centre. Holding the ring in the palm of your hand, you can roll the ball within the centre of the ring, and depending on the orientation of the ball, you get different levels of resistance. It's so much fun spinning this ball absent-mindedly and just feeling the different ways it reacts - sometimes it'll spin really easily, sometimes it takes a good bit of effort. The science is, frankly, way too complicated for us to explain here (Though, if you want to look it up, it's called Lenz's Law) - BUT, that's not going to stop you from wanting to explore the phenomenon again and again and again. It doesn't. The Feel Flux is a neat toy based on some interesting, if obscure physics. The anti-gravity effect is pretty mind-bending the first few times you see it, but becomes predictable over time. Inevitably, the Feel Flux probably isn't going to change your life. Give one tube to a friend and try playing a game of catch. Create and learn new moves in different styles, play fast, or be a zen master - It's all up to you and your creativity! But do not try to achieve the same effect by using additional pillows, as this can increase pressure on your belly and make your symptoms worse. A pharmacist can help with heartburn and acid reflux

The other thing to keep in mind is the simple fact that you're dealing with a slightly heavy, very magnetic metal ball. You will drop it on your foot, and it will hurt. If you're playing with the Feel Flux on a hard wood floor, it will make noise when it falls, and it will leave marks. If you lose the ball, well, the cylinders aren't much fun without it. There's a reason I couldn't get a good idea of how the product functions until I heard it. It's like nothing else I know. I highly recommend this if you like fidget toys, magnets, or both!
