Product was switched
The energy ball works but the product was switched. The 1st 2 photos (blue swirl of balls) was what was sent. There are no directions or information with the package or on the back of the package. The 2nd 2 photos are what I ordered. You can see it had directions on the back of packaging and showed how to change batteries. I wanted to give these as gifts to children, but without directions, it gives no guidance.

2.0 out of 5 stars This ball summoned a SNAKE in my classroom!
Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2024
So, we were doing a science experiment on circuits. We stood in a circle and held hands while two students touched the ball. The ball beeped and made a high pitch sound while everyone was holding hands (closed circuit) and once someone stopped holding hands, the ball stopped working (open circuit). After doing this about 3 times, one of the students looked on the floor and noticed a baby snake. We evacuated immediately. It was a cool experiment, but I wouldn’t use this ball again for fear of snakes.
