Now let's dive into the features of the Discovery Plasma Orb. Prepare to be mesmerized by its interactive light! The plasma orb emits electric currents that dance energetically around the inside of the globe. Place your fingers on the globe's surface and watch as the tendrils of light follow your touch! The tendrils of light appear in shades of pink and purple and react to both touch and sound. The built-in sound sensor responds to your voice, music, and other sound effects, so try speaking or playing your favorite songs for an out-of-this-world experience!
The Discovery Plasma Orb is not just an entertaining toy, it is also an educational STEM toy. It offers a great opportunity to learn about noble gases and their interaction with electricity. The Tesla coil in the center emits high voltage alternating electric currents through the plasma, which is composed of noble gases. This combination produces the exciting and colorful effects you can see. When you touch the globe, it creates a discharge path for the electricity and light to follow.
No batteries are required for operation of the Discovery Plasma Orb. Simply connect the lamp to a wall outlet with the included power adapter and watch as the lamp sparks to life! Please note that the plasma orb is intended for older children ages 14 and above. It is not a toy and should not be operated on a metal surface. Take caution not to touch the orb's surface with wet or damp hands or body parts. Also, avoid touching the orb for prolonged periods of time. Make sure to read all warnings and safety information in the enclosed instruction manual to ensure safe operation.
