    Wow that beats me hands down - highest is 10854 - I am only a beginner though so watch out! 15027 is the current WR held by a Greek Harpoon Gun enthusiast.

    I got one from Ebay for around £16. It is a great piece of kit. I wanted to improve stamina and strength for guitar and badminton. One word of advice would be to steer clear of cheap imitations. The original Powerball is engineered for up to 16000 revs - the cheaper one start to shake and rattle at about 8-9000.
    Thanks for the warning, was gunna get one of them off eBay.

    Will wait for the play.com one to come back in stock

    Now out of stock there as well.

    Seems a bit of a craze going round at the moment.

    Make sure that you pick up a decent one. The cheaper models are not engineered to a high standard and will not last long....I have the original powerball with rev counter....12,932 highest so far !
