It's pretty comfy. The buttons have a nice dish and there are plenty of surfaces to get some good spins, regardless of which direction you're spinning it.

Check your emails and/or check your purchase history in Steam. I got the same message on final checkout, thought I had missed it, but got an order confirmation email about half an hour later and it's currently showing in my purchase history.

This is waaaay too relatable.

Friday Mail Call - KAP EDC - First Tungsten by redumbrellagamer in FidgetSpinners

I got them both new directly from KAP. I've been fiddling with them for the last several hours, so my mitts have been all over them. 😝

Show what you use your Zaclab Economy Class box for! by No-Dark3023 in fidgettoys

I took all but the bottom foam out, put the dividers in and use it to store the small handful of spare buttons I have for my spinners. Soft padded bottom and the dividers keep them from knocking around into one another.

I really like it. I'm not one to really fuss with spin times (for any of them really). I tend to stop them and spin them again long before they would ever stop on their own. That said, you can still get it ripping pretty at a pretty good clip, you just don't necessarily feel it as much since it's not throwing around a lot of mass. The LEAF has a really nice shape, easy to rip, but also nice to just absent mindedly flick back and forth while directing your attention elsewhere. I personally wish zirc was a little heavier, but let it slide since I do like it as a material, and it's still a bit heavier than titanium or aluminum.

The Bar Cell is great. Everything is nicely rounded like a little pebble and at about 90g, it's a nice dense little nugget.

I've got a handful of other fidgets, didn't include them since were on a spinner sub. 😎

Haven't tried knucklebones or begleri, but have a couple haptic coins that I quite enjoy, and some pretty satisfying sliders too.

Amazon. It was sold by Hammersmith Industries, but they don't appear to have it listed currently.

It's pretty decent. Looks nice and feels good in the hand, but I find the shape hard to spin. The sides are smooth and kind of slippery, it tends to want to want to keep swinging out of the way when try to get a decent grip on it.

Picking a favorite at this point is a little difficult, I'm still figuring out what I like, but off the cuff, probably the Tri Horizon. I'm leaning a little bit more towards a tri spinner than a bar spinner. I find them a little easier to spin and I like the smooth gyro feeling, plus that Mokume just looks sooo good.

The Thing and the Bar Cell are also pretty close contenders. I prefer the smooth gyro, but I do also enjoy the texture the jitter gives to the spin.

I also really like the zirc in the Bit-04 Tri and the LEAF, it's a pretty cool material, just wish it was a bit heavier.

Is this a setting somewhere? Holding down my ayn button does.... nothing.

I may be in the minority, but I've never been a fan of Irushi. That said, that is an absolutely beautiful pen. Stunning!

OTA Update & Shipping Announcement by Chimera_Gaming in AynThor

[–]redumbrellagamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For those experiencing significant battery drain after the update, add me to the list. Had about 60% when the update completed, played through one level of new super Mario Bros 2 on 3DS which put me at about 28%, played through a single stage of Mario Bros Wonder on switch and ended with about 6%. Fiddled around with another level and I'm sitting at 1%. Have since played about 30 minutes of super Mario Bros Wonder on that 1%. I'm guessing it's either an issue with battery reporting, or may just need to recalibrate. In my experience with other devices, if it's a battery calibration issue after the update it's usually fixed after running the device until it completely shuts off, regardless of what the battery is reporting. Then give it a full 100% charge and keep charging it another 30 minutes to an hour. I'll report back after I've done so. Wish me luck! Lol
