Force Lightning Energy Ball Review

Star Wars has always been popular and this year thanks to the newest edition to the film franchise it seems to be even more popular than ever. There are lots of Star Wars themed products available but nothing like the new range of science-themed toys from Uncle Milton. We were recently sent the new Force Lightning Energy Ball to review.

The Force Lightning Energy Ball (£24.99) is great fun. Star Wars fans both young and old will love it as it allows them to harness the power of Force Lightning just like Yoda.

The Energy Ball is suitable for children aged 6 years and over and requires 4 AA batteries (not included). Very little assembly is needed, there is a disc that you need to place around the ball and you need to add batteries. Once switched on the plasma moving inside looks really pretty and is quite impressive to watch without even placing your hands anywhere near it.

A plasma globe, resembling an Energy Ball, emits colourful purple and pink electric streams inside a glass sphere against a dark background.

If you touch the Energy Ball you will see pulses of real plasma energy stream directly towards your fingertips meaning you too can move light energy with your hands just like a Sith Lord. James loved this as you can see in the video below the energy is more concentrated when his fingers are pressed on the ball. This is because our blood and water acts as a conductor and attracts the plasma filaments. You can see this in the video below.

The Energy Ball is the perfect toy to help keep (or maybe even start) a child’s interest in science. My Three love anything science themed so they think that the ball is great. When they move their hands around the ball the energy follows – I have to admit that it is pretty cool.

A plasma globe, often called an Energy Ball, emits colourful streams of pink and blue light from its centre, illuminating the dark surroundings with glowing, branching patterns reminiscent of Force Lightning.

I don’t think this is a toy that will be played with constantly it is one that when the boy’s friends come over to play will impress – especially the ones who like science or Star Wars. The boys were very impressed when their dad showed them that the Energy Ball could make the light turn on.

This toy would make the perfect Christmas present for any Star Wars fan young or old. The Energy Ball and other Star Wars products are available from Flair.
