The longest spinner in the world. The best spinners, which spinner is better to buy. Do you want to do tricks

Spinner - popular toy which relieves stress, develops fine motor skills and gets rid of bad habits. To perform tricks, it is important that the spinner spins as long as possible. Then it will turn out to be thrown from one hand to another and thrown into the air and the rotation of the mechanism will not stop. We'll tell how to make the spinner spin longer, and consider what affects its speed.

Why is rotation slowing down?

Users noted that over time, the spinner starts spinning more slowly. This is due to dust and debris that gets on the bearing of the toy. They create additional friction in the mechanism and reduce the rotation speed. The more dirty the part of the spinner is, the faster it stops.

Bearing cleaners

The bearing spins more efficiently without the boot. But it also gets dirty faster.

It is necessary to clean the bearing from dust and debris once a week. For this purpose, the following tools are suitable:

Acetone;
Thinner VIK;
Water Displacement 40 (WD-40);
Solvent Zaltan;
Vehicle brake cleaner VERYLUBE;
Alcohol;
A tool called Gasoline Kalosh.

If you need to clean the bearing urgently, use liquid soap or dishwashing detergent.

How to properly clean a spinner?

To speed up the rotation of the mechanism, execute step by step process spinner cleaning:

Remove the lid from the toy. It is attached to a small thread. With the fingers of one hand, fix the top of the cover, and with the other hand, unscrew the bottom counterclockwise. Sometimes the balls in the bearing are fixed with metal protection. It is removed with a screwdriver. It is necessary to insert the tool into the bearing and slightly pry off the protective ring;
Remove the bearing from the spinner. You can clean the part without taking it out of the toy. However, some strong chemicals can damage the body of the spinner. If the bearing cannot be removed, then use only alcohol for cleaning. It will not damage the plastic or metal the toy is made of;
Apply the selected cleaner or soap and water to the bearing. The composition should fall directly on the ball of the part. Don't be afraid to use a large number of liquids. This will not harm the spinner;

Without washing off the cleaner, start scrolling the bearing with your fingers. Gradually increase the rotation speed so that the agent is completely distributed over the part. Make a few turns in both directions;
Submerge the bearing under warm water and keep spinning. It is necessary to rinse the part for 20-30 seconds at constant speed in order to completely get rid of the chemical agent;
Dry the bearing hair dryer at low temperature. Do not wipe the part with a rag, as small threads can get stuck in the bearing and make it difficult to rotate in the future;
Insert part back into the spinner and close the lid. After such cleaning, the toy will rotate 2 times longer.

Advice. Bearings need to be cleaned regularly, even if they just lie in your pocket or on a shelf. All dust from the air gradually enters the parts and reduces the rotation speed.

Lubricate the bearing. Comparison of different types of spinner lubricant

In this video you will see a comparison of several types of grease / flush for spinner bearings: kerosene, WD-40, machine oil. First, the bearing is lubricated, then the spinner rotation time is measured. Which tool do you think won? Look! :)

We increase the rotation time of the spinner with gasoline: video

You can clearly see the process of cleaning the bearing in the video below. After completing all the steps, you can increase the rotation time of your spinner.

What does spinner lubricant affect?

A spinner with a lubricated part will spin much quieter. However, if speed is important to you, then you can easily clean the bearing of grease in the manner described above. Remember that a new spinner is sold already with a lubricated part. Excess fat can be removed immediately after purchasing a long spin toy.

Hi all. Today on the review there will be 10 unusual spinners. Let's see how they look and which one spins the longest. I love the glow in the dark ones the most. There are both inexpensive and for 16 bucks. And of course, you can see how everyone is spinning.

All spinners are in gray metal boxes. It is not a shame to give such a spinner, just wrap the box with gift paper.

The first will be a spinner in the form of . Weight is 32g. There is a small knurling on the side and can be used instead of a nail file. Joke.

Next spinner. He weighs 35g. Quite thick. The beams are painted metallic, and the contact pad is glossy.

The same form and. He weighs 37g. But it differs by the presence of LEDs in the rays. LEDs do not light up on their own during spinning. You need to hit the beams hard enough. The disadvantages include a fairly quick turn off of the diodes, while the spinner still continues to spin at high speed.

The next spinner can be fully called glamorous, because it is. This model weighs 38g. Feature in the presence of 3 metal balls in each beam, which are not tightly fixed.

Well, if the previous one can be bought for a girl, then the second one is suitable for a guy. with two beams and three balls in each beam. Weighs 29g.

And this. The toy is made in the shape of a ship's steering wheel. The beams can be turned off. Each has elastic bands in red, green and of blue color. If desired, you can remove and fasten your own. Weight 29g.

And this model is done. If you sharpen the ends, you can turn into a ninja. Weighs 40g, should spin for a long time, because the weight is solid. The color is a gradient, in the sun it gives off beautiful highlights.

weighs 41g. It has 3 beams. Each contains an LED with a battery. As in the previous glowing spinner, in this model you also need to hit the rays to turn on the backlight. But it goes out just as quickly, while the spinner is still spinning fast. On reverse side on each of the rays drawn on the spinner.

I liked the most. Weight 39g. There are backlight beams and what else! Press and the LEDs will light up. And there are as many as 3 glow modes! But most importantly: the backlight turns off only when you yourself want it to. Very cool! Spinners are drawn on the reverse side.

And the most expensive and heaviest spinnet. Weighs 59g and costs . Has 2 beams. Outwardly, it resembles something of a knight. The rays are made in the form of shields, and on the contact pad there is an image in the form of a tiger, but this is not accurate.

Fotik does not have time to capture the movement of the spinner, so I add a video review. In it you can still see how the luminous spinners are spinning in the dark, the blue one does everything. You can also look at the launch of 10 spinners and which one spins the longest.

Most of all I liked the luminous blue spinner precisely because the backlight can be turned off by yourself, and does not stupidly turn off after a few seconds. The last spinner spun the longest, most likely due to the largest weight. I agree that all this is empty pampering, but cool. Now the spinner-multitool and column are still flying. Well, they don’t fly by themselves, but by mail. And I would also like a titanium spinner, but it costs 26 bucks. And there is one that spins for more than 8 minutes, but it costs $50.

Separately untwisted each personally. Rotation time min-sec:
- wheel 1-51;
- gradient 1-53;
- pink 1-49;
- tiger 3-29;
- just black 3-19;
- black with balls 1-43;
- steering wheel 1-29;
- red 2-11;
- blue 2-18;
- silver 0-30;

Thank you all for your attention.

Fidget spinner came in the package. This thing is very popular. On the Internet, you have definitely seen. Golden toy. Happens different coloring pages. Unfolds with fingers. What materials are they made from? Metal, plastic, wood and titanium. There are 4 bearings in the housing. One is in the middle. There are two types of bearings: plain and ceramic. The latter spins longer, this is the key to its success. Cheaper in this Chinese store.
In the spinner, which is presented in the review, just a ceramic bearing is installed.

The host of the channel “#BorodaDavid PRODUCTION” conducted a test. Launched the toy and noted the time. The duration of rotation was 7 minutes 6 seconds.

Another experiment

Here are five spinners, different in price. The most expensive on the left, the cheapest on the right. Let's see how the cost affects the duration of the rotation. The test will show the longest of all tested toys. I set a stopwatch to measure how long each of the turntables will work. The experiment has already been carried out once. We watch a replay on the video, especially on camera.

As you can see, one model lost. It's defective. The master tried to fix it, but it seems that even lubrication will not help. The second is fashion, with Batman. He's cool and youthful. But, it did not show itself very well in terms of the duration of the promotion. If you get to the bearing and clean it gently, extend the work. These two devices are bullshit. They are not worth the money if you want to get a long-term fidget.

The third model rotated for 1 minute.

The remaining two are favorites. On the video you can see how long each lasted.

So the penultimate participant in the competition stopped spinning. It is also second in value. 3.5 minutes he worked hard.

Let's see how long the metal will stand in dynamics. The heaviest by weight.

It can be assumed that some of them were promoted more strongly. But the result will not exceed more than two, three times. It could be several seconds. More than 5 minutes have passed. And the spinner keeps moving.

6 minutes 15 seconds is a test record.

"Borzoy Canal".

Several measurements are given, the results of which revealed the longest pinwheel of all participants in the experiment. The time was 6 minutes 15 seconds. If the host of the video had put in more effort, the record could have been higher.

It can spin many times longer than ordinary toys

A spinner capable of spinning continuously for 13 and a half minutes was presented by developers from Japan. According to the creators of the record-breaking toy, for an ordinary spinner, only a few minutes of continuous rotation is considered a worthy result.

According to the experts, they used a combination of a heavy bronze frame and a lightweight aluminum ball bearing to increase the centrifugal force. At the same time, the bearings that the engineers used were originally developed for space satellites. For a spinner created by the Japanese, it is not a problem to rotate for 12 minutes, and the record set during development tests was 13 minutes and 35 seconds.

Spinner, or fidget-spinner - a toy consisting of a metal or ceramic bearing and several (most often three) blades made of brass, stainless steel, titanium, copper or plastic. Recently, spinners have become quite popular among children and even some older people. By May 4 on Amazon various models spinners took all the places in the list of 20 best-selling toys, and the peak of their popularity came in June last year. The unusual device gained so many fans that some Internet users began to perceive it almost as a kind of "cult"

Some have speculated that the toy is a stress reliever and may even be beneficial for ADHD, autism, and anxiety disorders. However, scientifically similar beneficial features spinners have not yet been proven. In some American schools, the toy is officially banned - the leadership of these educational institutions considered that it distracts students, thereby reducing their academic performance.

Toys called fidget spinners have captured not only the West, but also Russia and the CIS countries. It seems nothing unusual, you take a spinner (from the English Spin = rotate) and twist it with your fingers. And yet, many people like this thing. Today you can buy spinners of any size and shape, and the price for them can vary from 300 rubles to several thousand. In this collection, you can find out which fidget spinners are by far the most expensive. It's amazing what people are willing to spend their money on.

10. Spinner"Crusader"

The creator of this spinner is KASFLY. Such toys are sold only on order and in a closed group in one of the social networks. This spinner has a religious pattern, and there are two versions of it - bronze and titanium alloy. Last option is the most expensive, although bronze spins longer. During rotation, the spinner looks beautiful, but if you touch the rotating ends, you can earn skin irritation.

7. Spinner "Pepyakka-S"

Price:$425 (25,000 rubles)

From the name you can understand that the spinner consists of 9 bearings connected to each other. The spinner is made of brass, which means that it will need care, otherwise it will rust. If you want a separate case for your spinner, get ready to fork out another $140.

3. Spinner and cigar stand Rotablade

Price: $600 (40,000 rubles)

2. Spinner"Artifact"

Price: $700 (42,000 rubles)

This spinner is called "Artifact" for a reason - it looks like a real work of art that came to us from a bygone era. This toy was designed by Chris Bathgate.

1. Spinner "SteelflameRing" - no longer produced

Price range: 500 - 1,500 dollars (30,000 - 90,000 rubles)

Derrick Obatake of Los Angeles is the manufacturer jewelry. When fidget spinners began to gain incredible popularity, he decided to create his own version, and called it "Steel Flame Ring" (from the English "ring in a metal frame"). Several models were created, each of which had its own unique design. Later it was decided to suspend the production of these spinners.

Since these toys are considered rare, each can cost up to $1,500.

Spinner is a great toy that helps relieve stress and entertain yourself or others. For young and active people this is a wonderful gift.

But due to the frenzied demand for the turntable, the market is littered with a whole bunch of hastily made goods of poor quality. I will tell you how to choose a good spinner and choose it for your needs.

Read more about the varieties and differences of spinners in. In short, they are of the following types by filling:

With metal bearing. Budget, but quite reliable.
With ceramic bearing. They spin longer, but they make more noise.
Combined. Golden mean, little noise.

According to the material, turntables are usually made from:

tree. For aesthetes and connoisseurs of natural materials:) Usually the most beautiful and rare. Mostly handmade.
Plastic. The most budget option, light.
Various metals and alloys. Heavy, reliable, brutal, expensive.

In terms of shapes, sizes and additional bells and whistles, there are a lot of them, it is useless to list them.

For what purposes do we choose a spinner

If you don’t know which spinner is better to choose, then first decide on the goals - why do you need it?

Something to do with your hands?

Any cheapest spinner will do, they all spin well if the bearing is not defective. Made of plastic, metal bearing.

Do you want to stand out or choose a spinner for a gift?

Take the original designer models, with wood carvings, in the form of a shuriken, a skull or a Batman boomerang, for example. The most relish is to order an individual design from the master, or make it yourself if your arms grow from your shoulders.

Do you want to do tricks?

If you are going to throw a spinner and land it on your head, then you should not take a heavy metal one or with sharp blades, this is fraught with injuries. Better quality plastic with a ceramic or combined bearing.

About what tricks you can do with a spinner you can

Which spinner is suitable for children?

No metal toys, no sharp edges. Children are best to take the classic plastic toy with 3 smooth blades. They come in bright colors and LED lights. At the same time, plastic and paints must be non-toxic, check this point with the seller.

Metallic painted plastic spinner

What to look for when choosing a spinner

If you want to choose a good spinner, then before buying, you should carefully study its characteristics. We pay attention first of all to:

Turntable material. Sometimes sellers deceive the buyer, stating that the spinner is metal. In fact, this is plastic, which is painted in the color of metal, be careful, a metal spinner will not cost 100 rubles at retail.
Bearing material and bearing. It should be well lubricated if it is metal or hybrid. Ceramics also have lubrication, but much less is needed.
We look at the ABEC marking of the bearing- the higher the number, the better the bearing is considered to be. This affects the speed and duration of rotation, and, well, the price. The average duration of rotation is from 1 to 5 minutes. Read more about ABEC on Wikipedia.
For the price. The normal price for a spinner made of plastic is in the region of 100-500 rubles, of metal in the region of 500-1000 rubles. If the price is much higher, then either this is a predatory cheat by the seller, or some kind of unique design and handmade.
In any case, almost everything that is sold here is made in China. Spinners from the USA cost an order of magnitude more, although they are not much different from good Chinese ones.
For availability of accessories. This rarely happens, but it's always a plus when spare bearings are included. If there is also a container with oil for lubrication, then it is generally gorgeous. Batteries are required for backlit models.
For packaging, documentation and warranty. A cheap hastily assembled spinner is packed carelessly, there is either no additional documentation at all, or it is printed on a cheap cardboard box, there is no need to talk about a guarantee. Most likely, the quality of such a skewer will not please you.

The video shows and clearly shows how and how spinners differ:

Specify all the information of interest from the seller in advance. If you buy a hand spinner in a store, be sure to ask to unpack it. Inspect for defects, cracks. Spin and check how well the bearing works.

Where is the best place to buy a spinner

So far, I definitely do not advise you to take it in offline stores - there is an extra charge of up to 1000% ( in all seriousness), the cheapest Chinese models can sell for 500-1000 rubles and more. Yes, and the choice is very limited, and finding a store in your city that sells spinners can be another quest.

The market is just starting to fill up, and the demand is huge and they are cashing in. It is best to order from online stores. This method also has its drawbacks, of course:

Long wait. Sometimes for several months, but you can find stores that deliver within 1-2 weeks.
Shipping costs. Again, you can find with free shipping, but as a rule, the cost of it is already included in the price tag.
There is no way to feel with your own hands and examine with your eyes. Perhaps the most important disadvantage of online shopping.
You can run into scammers. But everything is quite simple here - buy only in trusted stores, where there are a lot of reviews, a good reputation and a guarantee is given.

Despite these disadvantages, it’s still better to buy online only in the next half a year if you don’t want to overpay dozens of times.

Why is rotation slowing down?

Bearing cleaners

The bearing spins more efficiently without the boot. But it also gets dirty faster.

It is necessary to clean the bearing from dust and debris once a week. For this purpose, the following tools are suitable:

Acetone;
Thinner VIK;
Water Displacement 40 (WD-40);
Solvent Zaltan;
Vehicle brake cleaner VERYLUBE;
Alcohol;
A tool called Gasoline Kalosh.

If you need to clean the bearing urgently, use liquid soap or dishwashing detergent.

How to properly clean a spinner?

To speed up the rotation of the mechanism, follow the step-by-step process of cleaning the spinner:

Remove the lid from the toy. It is attached to a small thread. With the fingers of one hand, fix the top of the cover, and with the other hand, unscrew the bottom counterclockwise. Sometimes the balls in the bearing are fixed with metal protection. It is removed with a screwdriver. It is necessary to insert the tool into the bearing and slightly pry off the protective ring;
Remove the bearing from the spinner. You can clean the part without taking it out of the toy. However, some strong chemicals can damage the body of the spinner. If the bearing cannot be removed, then use only alcohol for cleaning. It will not damage the plastic or metal the toy is made of;
Apply the selected cleaner or soap and water to the bearing. The composition should fall directly on the ball of the part. Do not be afraid to use a large amount of liquid. This will not harm the spinner;

Without washing off the cleaner, start scrolling the bearing with your fingers. Gradually increase the rotation speed so that the agent is completely distributed over the part. Make a few turns in both directions;
Submerge the bearing under warm water and keep spinning. It is necessary to rinse the part for 20-30 seconds at constant speed in order to completely get rid of the chemical agent;
Dry the bearing hair dryer at low temperature. Do not wipe the part with a rag, as small threads can get stuck in the bearing and make it difficult to rotate in the future;
Insert part back into the spinner and close the lid. After such cleaning, the toy will rotate 2 times longer.

Advice. Bearings need to be cleaned regularly, even if they just lie in your pocket or on a shelf. All dust from the air gradually enters the parts and reduces the rotation speed.

Lubricate the bearing. Comparison of different types of spinner lubricant

In this video you will see a comparison of several types of grease / flush for spinner bearings: kerosene, WD-40, engine oil. First, the bearing is lubricated, then the spinner rotation time is measured. Which tool do you think won? Look! :)

We increase the rotation time of the spinner with gasoline: video

You can clearly see the process of cleaning the bearing in the video below. After completing all the steps, you can increase the rotation time of your spinner.

What does spinner lubricant affect?

At the end of 2016 and 2017 toys called fidget spinner or simply "spinners" have gained wild popularity due to ease of use, low price and calming effect.
