For all you PK and non-PK-ers!
What would you pick between these and why:
1.M5
2.Black Widow
3.Raven
4.The Bat
5.Monster Bertha
6.Mega Bertha
7.PK ring
8.SMS system

The poll will run for a week!
Thanks!

P.S. Admins, if you think that the poll/topic is inapropriate in any way please delete it... I thought it would make things easier and sum up all that's been said on PK devices! ;)

Personally, I don't do that may PK effects but I do have a Raven (who hasn't :lol: ). It's relatively inexpensive whilst allowing you some creativity so all round I think that it's good value for money. That's why I've selected it.

A close second would be a PK ring now that I've finally got one that fits :lol:

Did you have to have that custom made?

I bought a couple a while back thnking it would be a good investment, apparently their use is "limited only by your imagination", turns out my imagination is pretty limited.

That made me laugh! Image

I voted for the PK ring; gimmick in plain view, nothing for the spectator to discover, nothing to switch or hide. No, it's not as powerful as some of the others, but it suits my purposes (not that I do that many PK effects, anyway).

I have 2 PK rings - the normal gold band wedding ring on my left hand and a silver G2 on the right hand - I have had a person suspect a "magic ring" before, but never 2 rings.

I agree with l-dawg. Ok I have the power of pk I shall make a fork move. Move my hand close closer ah bloody hell its stuck to it. Ok I will try a coin its lighter. Move my hand close, close ah bloody hell its stuck to it. Right ok maybe i can use it to find something magnetic in an envelope chirst now I am attached to a envelope.

I am master of misdirection, look over there.

We are not falling out young Welshy, we are debating, I think farlsy is an idiot he thinks I am one. We are just talking about who is the bigger idiot.

I have both Raven and the bat........

To be fair if your knowledge of these kind of pk products are good then (and I know this is goin to cause a stink) but making your own PK gimmics is fun and u can design them for whatever purpose you have in mind?

If your feeling less creative than me then yes buy one of the above....
