Features

• Semi-static rope

  A semi-static rope with a PVC textile braid joins the heads.

• Two heads

  Each end has a POI or DART type head, depending on your configuration.

• Powerful heads

  Two high-power RGB LEDs light up the head.

• Digital light rope

  Every LED in the rope is controlled individually, so movement creates pixel patterns.

• Button and app

  Switch it on with the button. Control it with the button or in the app.

• Custom modes

  Edit modes in the app or create your own.

• Props in sync

  Props sync with each other over a 2.4 GHz network and play together.

• Repairable rope

  A repair kit with two sets is available, one for each head.

Technical specifications (lengths, weights, runtime) are on the product page in the e-shop. This guide is about using the product.

Charging over USB-C

Plug the USB-C cable from the box into the charging port and the other end into a USB charger.

• On the charger the METEOR charges, stays switched on and can light up.
• Charging takes about 2 hours with a 2 A charger and up to 4 hours with a weaker one.
• After charging, put the USB cover back on the port.

Rope care

Tangles shorten the life of the rope

Some trick families, tangles in particular, shorten the life of the rope. A repair kit for RoPE METEOR is available — it contains two sets, one for each of the two joined heads.

Troubleshooting

The METEOR goes dark when unplugged from the charger

That is expected. When you unplug the USB cable, the charging chip restarts and the circuit switches off. Switch the METEOR on with the button.

The METEOR does not light up even after pressing the button

Connect it to the charger — on the charger it is switched on and can light up. Let it charge (about 2 hours with a 2 A charger), unplug it and switch it on with the button. If it still does not light up, email us with a short video: pressing the button on the charger and after unplugging.

One side goes dark or does not respond

Send us a short video that shows when the side goes dark (while spinning, after an impact, after pressing the button). We will agree on the next steps based on it.

The app cannot find the METEOR

Check that the METEOR is switched on (after unplugging, switch it on with the button), that Bluetooth is on and that you are close by. More tips in app troubleshooting.

The rope is worn or damaged

You can repair the rope with the RoPE METEOR repair kit. Email us and we will advise you how to proceed.

The device does not respond

Try a restart: connect the device to the charger, unplug the cable after a moment (the circuit switches off) and switch it on with the button. Details in Restart and reset.
