This high-performance four-color light-up yo-yo combines the patented transaxle system found in the world-famous Fireball with a patented electronic pulsating eight-LED diode system to create a kaleidoscope laser-like show of colorful light patterns, which change as the yo-yo continues to spin at the end of the string. The product comes with bonus string, a trick book and a lubricant pen. “The Lightbeam has a unique centrifugal power switch that turns the yo-yo on when it detects motion and shuts it off when it’s not in use. This process extends battery life and provides for a truly colorful play experience,” Marketing Director John Marcantonio of Yomega told TDmonthly. Launch date: Spring 2007.

Designed for beginner yo-yo enthusiasts, the Power Brain XP features a "Smart Switch” auto-return clutch that allows the user to switch between manual and automatic returns. Beginners can easily get a sense of the rhythm while they’re learning to handle the yo-yo. As their skills increase, they can switch to a manual return mode for longer spin times and more challenging tricks. It comes in blue, orange or neon yellow. The back of the yo-yo has a transparent window so the user can view the Smart Switch mechanism. 8/23/2005 [Add to my Inquiry Basket][?]
