With Lightning, you'll be prepared to make a light bulb spontaneously LIGHT - blurring the lines between science and the supernatural.

The light bulb can be in your hand, or far away from you.

And. . .Lightning doesn't just cause bulb to turn on and off. It's been specially designed to realistically flicker and grow in intensity as your psychic energy builds to a climax.

Perform Lightning in close, intimate living rooms, all the way up to large stages.

Use Lightning on its own, or in combination with some of your favorite effects. Its the perfect lead-in before you shatter a bulb - as in MagicSmith's Big Bang and Mesika's Exploding Bulb. Watch the attached videos and witness the magic of Lightning.

Lightning is 100% self-contained, tiny and very powerful. It's completely custom designed - there's really nothing else like it. There's virtually no sleight of hand, no set-up, and it resets automatically after each use.

Lightning comes with the Lightning gimmick and an instructional Video CD.

Very Good Effect Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 24th, 2014
I have used this gimmick in restaraunts and on stage, as well as anywhere I can find lightbulbs - and it has served me well. If you use the right presentation, people will genuinely believe that you have special powers with this gimmick. It's so simple, yet so powerful.
The only qualm I have about the gimmick, is that it shines so blue. I wish the light looked a bit less like fluorescent lighting. But no one ever notices. I suggest that you purchase this if you haven't already. It will serve you well!

Amazing Illusion Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 11th, 2014
There are some bad reviews out there about this effect. But I found none of the apparent cons that yielding...SERIOUSLY its 25, if you are considering buying yigal mesika exploding lightbulb or chris smiths big bang this is a must companion and well worth the price. You are restricted somewhat to using "frosted" bulbs. Although not entirely true, you could make it work with "almost" any bulb! There will be some sleight of hand involved in bringing the gimmick in and out of play but its not hard once you get comfortable with your motions.

This to me is an 88/100 effect. Its great.

Great effect, better slightly modded Report this review

The effect is top notch. I've used this gimmick for some time now and even stand alone, it packs a heavy punch. Plus you can use any bulb, even taken directly from a lamp. Be careful, they are hot if they were on. 5 stars. Simple, easy and when used in conjunction with other "Super power' effects....you will floor people.

I painted the gimmick white. So good.

There are so many other ways to exploit this gimmick, not just lighting light bulbs. Play with it and let your imagination go for it. BTW. . . the maker of the device should make them in alternative colors; red, green, blue especially with a slow fade-in and out on the control. . . black light would be super awesome!

Great item. Easy to use and well thought out. If you do, or want to do a seance type effect with a lightbulb this is the perfect tool. Priced right as well.
