Magic done with ordinary objects is still the best magic one can do.
Show your phone inside its case, close the case and have a spectator hold the phone in-between their fingertips. Next you hand out your business card and ask the spectator to call your cell number...The phone rings, and they can FEEL & HEAR the phone ringing. The moment the spectator let’s go of the phone case, open the case to show that your phone has completely disappeared! Reveal the phone inside your pants pocket or any other location…with the missed call on the screen! Frequency is a devious, clever gimmick that allows you to not only conceal a very clever phone vanish, but can also be used for PK/PK touch effects etc. It’s a very clever electronic device that you can carrie around and is completely “invisible” when in play -You’ll love this! Frequency is your new secret weapon in magic. Period. Key points: - EASY to do - Can be done with any phone - Use your own normal phone case - Can even be performed with a borrowed phone and case - Reliable and rechargeable - 100% control - Tons of effects possible https://www.penguinmagic.com/p/16432 Thoughts? I think I like it. But I'd want to know a little more. |

Considering I just bought Hanson Chief’s vanishing phone, I wonder if I could use this as an add on for the pk part.

It should be pretty clear, what you get and what the gimmick does. BUT the most important part of the routine is missing: how the handling of the vanish looks. The trailer shows only the before and after. why is this crucial?
He released a trick called "Caffeine Rush" where a coin penetrates the lid of a coffee cup: The description says: "Right after the penetration you remove the lid and take out the object with ZERO switches or whatsoever." oh yes, you can take out the object without switches because you just lift up the lid (which is the gimmick) and take out the object. This statement is totally nonsense. "If you wish you can hand out everything for examination or as a souvenir for them to take home!" If you wish to perform a redicilious switch of the lid for a regular lid you can...if you see it you would think he is joking... What I wanna say: from my experience with his products I wouldn't buy this until you see how the handling of the "vanish" looks like...and I have a feeling Craig will answer that soon |

I agree with Simon, Peter's trailers are very misleading and his latests releases have all been bombs.

When I first saw the trailer, it reminded me of the Temple Screen trick.

I spent $100 on that can and coin trick and it's sitting on the shelf. It never was good enough for prime time.
I am not interested. |

I purchased this because to be honest with you I like the idea of using a cell phone for this kind of an effect. If you bought the effect where a lifesaver is put on a stick and rotates then you will know what this effect is all about. I have not received it yet but I do like the idea that it's usb-rechargeable instead of replacing battery he teaches a very good way to vanish a phone. I will be using this since my other affect that I purchased a while back no longer works. There are several things taught all dealing with PK effects that can be done with this gimmick. Depending on the quality it seems it's a little high-priced but overall I'm glad I bought it and I am hoping for a well-made product I will keep everyone posted. By the way you do not get a phone case with this and if I'm not mistaken you do not get the required TT but I will see all you get is the actual gimmick itself.
Good magic to all, Eric |

After purchasing that lousy coin to can trick, I'm done buying garbage from this creator.

I wish I had searched this BEFORE I bought Frequency from a local magic dealer. I received the gimmick and it will NOT hold a charge and does not work. Paid $75.00 for it.
Luckily, they will refund my money!! They ask for a reason, and I going to confidently say that the maker of the trick has a poor history of bad quality items. I have noted his name, and will not be buying anything he produces moving forward after this experience! |

I personally will never buy anything with small electronics, seeing so much grief people are getting with watches,smoke devices, PK pen caps,battery loss of charge,won't charge up, come to think of it I will never buy another phone app again as ,new updates mess them up or creater does not carry on with the support of them, totally done with electric stuff have for a long time with stuff that fell to bit's and apps not working anymore.

I think mine is supposed to show up tomorrow. I will give it a test run and if it does not live up to expectation I will also return it for a refund. I will let everyone know how it works when it shows up. I do know from watching the video he said to give it a full charge first so that is exactly what I will do.
Good magic to all, Eric |

For all those who tear down this trick even before knowing what's it all about and see Peter's name on it: The technical part of this gimmick was designed by Joao Miranda!
We have developed this trick back in 2018 and launched a prototype at Blackpool Magic Convention in 2019. Since then we have tested this for the last two years ONLY to not have the discussion wheater or not it charge or work. Because it does work! I have a brick-and-mortar magic shop and have demonstrated this trick since 2019. I still use my very first gimmick with full confidence! Saying it is Peter Eggink so it is crap is really bull. Please check out this trailer too, you will see Armanujjaman Abir doing more routines: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Np2cRCqpKl0

I don't care so much about the gimmick itself: I would like to know how practical the vanish procedure/ditching is. This part is not shown in the trailer, but is more important than the gimmick. I guess we all can imagine that bringing the phone to your pocket needs quiet a movement and of course a motiviation. And I have a feeling that this is the weakest part of the the trick...maybe some of the guys who bought it can comment on this?

Can you confirm that QC is carried out on these units before being dispatched?
