StudentTink in Tokyo replied to the discussion 'Citiva Creations - who owns one?'
"I have three of them. The quality doesn't compare to my old PSI hoop, but they are light and cheap.
One is perfectly fine. Bright, lasts for hours. That one was a gift from a friend. The other two I bought myself and they are pretty meh: one…"
