What is the range with this interesting ITR? Are the traditional effects still doable or do the effects need to be "contained" to mostly between the hands?

It is recommended that it needs to be contained on your wrist.

hw long can the battery last?

The battery is built-in and rechargable. Once charged, you should get several hours of use out of it.

How do refills work for the thread? Will it have refills we can purchase separately like Yigal Mesikas ITRs?

You can refill this with any elastic IT. Mesika Elastics should work well for this or normal IT.

Phantom Hand

A unique, breakthrough invisible thread device that will help you easily perform invisible thread effects from animations to floating dollar bills, floating objects, rising card and a variety of other tricks.

"Phantom Hand" is NOT an Invisible Thread Reel, nor is it Loops of thread. Instead, it is a motorized bracelet that you wear on your wrist.

There are no clothing or body restrictions. And you'll never have to fumble awkwardly as you get ready to perform your favorite effects. You can even head out the door in short sleeves and be prepared to perform miracles at a moment's notice.

This innovative device uses break resistant, truly "invisible" thread. It will break less than other threads and, when it does break, the thread can be repaired/replaced in seconds.

The completely new design of "Phantom Hand" fits all wrist sizes and is incredibly comfortable. Its rechargeable built-in battery means you're also always ready to perform.

"Phantom Hand" refills are available separately.
