My NSD Powerball Neon Pro Blue delivery from Amazon.co.uk arrived 3 days early! Wooohooo! And it’s way cheaper (including delivery cost) than buying it from the store.

Features:

  • Perfect for golfers, musicians, squash, tennis, fencing, basketball, badminton, archery, cricket etc.
  • Use for rehabilitation and relief from carpal tunnel syndrome and RSI
  • Neon Powerballs have 6 high intensity LED’s which glow brightly once the Powerball is spinning
  • The counter is powered by two ‘watch’ batteries with an approx 3 year lifespan
  • The glow which engulfs your hand is generated by an induction coil in the rotor
  • The faster you spin, the brighter it glows!

Box Contents:

  • 1x Powerball Neon Pro (with digital counter)
  • 1x Instructions Manual
  • 2x Strings

Quick Review:

  • First try was hard. hehe!
  • A girl in the office got it running fast before I did. (I’m so weak. Or her smile just made me hand over the ball to her. hehe!)
  • It’s probably common sense to insert the end of the string to one of the holes in the gyro. That was the easy part.
  • I thought there was something wrong with it because of the weird sounds it made when I was rotating it. But after it ran smoothly, I only heard the gyro and the blue led lights illuminated. This meant I was doing it right.
  • The included counter in the Pro version is worth the extra cost from the regular Powerball. My officemates are competing who gets the highest RPMs.
  • My left arm is a bit tired. But after a while I think this is gonna be helpful with my guitar playing.
  • My only fear is that I might accidental lose control and throw the ball somewhere. Good thing there is a place on the side (shown in the photo) to hook a leash or something.

[Project 365] Valentine’s Day Movie: Sherlock Holmes

After getting wasted last night, my friends and I watched a movie to celebrate Valentine’s Day. We watched Sherlock Holmes! Not really a romantic movie but it was an awesome movie nonetheless.

Then after the movie, we just relaxed at Cafe Blue. It was a nice place to just hang out.

Sennheiser CX 300-II Precision Black

Recently, I went to Media Markt in West End Mall and bought a Sennheiser CX 300-II Precision Black for my Apple iPhone 3GS. This is my simple personal review about this pair of earphones. I’m not an expert in these things. I just hope it could help you with how to decide when getting your own earphones.

Okay, for some background first. I bought a new pair of earphones because my favorite Philips earphones just keeps on breaking down on me. It never lasts a year for me. First, I bought the Philips SHE 7750 (with the extension cord). After half a year, the rubber sealing the earphones and producing the nice bass expanded/stretched and fell off. So I bought another Philips SHE 7750. Again, the rubber seal fell off. When I got to Budapest, Hungary, I bought the Philips SHE 7850. This one has in-line volume control. I was very happy with it already when the rubber again fell off after seven months. I couldn’t find it anywhere. :ponder:

The reason I buy Philips earphones is because of the frequency range, 8Hz – 24,000Hz. I’m a bass person (I also play bass guitar in my band, Vodka Cherry) and I like the bass range of Philips.

At first I was hesitant in buying Sennheiser because I saw another Philips with the better frequency range. But I decided I’m fed up with the rubber problems of Philips. Now I was also
thinking of buying AKG K330. They are of the same price as the Sennheiser. But a colleague of mine has AKG and I wasn’t impressed with it.
