Press Release Summary = The Powerball can be described as a gyroscopic toy sold as a
wrist exerciser gadget that can be started with a short pull cord.

Press Release Body = Definition of a Powerball:
Powerball is a finely engineered and precision crafted gyro consisting of a rapidly
spinning rotor enclosed in a solid hand held outer sphere.

The Powerball can be described as a gyroscopic toy sold as a wrist exerciser gadget
that can be started with a short pull cord. Once the gyroscope inside is going fast
enough, a person holding it in his hand can accelerate the gyroscope to incredibly
high revs by following a circular wrist motion with the device.

The most advanced model in the range is a 350Hz Metal version. This powerball is
made completely of metal and is twice the weight of normal powerball models. This
powerball is harder to operate, since it can give about 25kg of torque when the
internal rotor is rotating at high revs. The current world record for the metal
Powerball is 13,731rpm, set by a Akis Kristinelis.

Perfectly engineered in highly polished chrome, the remarkable Metal Powerball is
almost twice as heavy as the other models in the range and offers the serious
Powerball enthusiast a work out like never before. The 350Hz Metal Powerball is
presented in a unique and highly complimentary transparent magnetic display case to
ensure it remains protected but in view at all times when not in use.

All 350Hz Metal models feature a 6 mode Accura V2.0 digital rev counter and high
density rotors as standard, also supplied are two starting cords and full
instructions plus a comprehensive product guarantee.
