True is a system which helps to identify the selected object in a closed box or bag. It comes with a sensor, a receiver and different gimmicked objects.
The basic version which called True includes: - 6 casino chips with different colors and values. - Key fob, cloth button and a finger ring. - Playing card. - Wooden box. - Carrying box and pouch. - The sensor and the receiver. - Special charging cable. The extended version which sold by Arteco Production is called "Obsession" and includes extra items: - Blank playing card. - 6 colored ESP symbols (including the triangle). I got the version which includes the extra stuff. The device works as intended and you get different items which can help you to perform different routine with one device. It can work in 3 different modes: - Pandora mode: You will know which object is hidden inside a box. - Detector mode; You can detect object hidden under hand or inside envelope. - Free mode: You give the spectators different objects -inside a box or on the table- and ask them to remove all and leave only one and cover it, you will immediately know which object is left. Cons - The included wooden box is very bad quality and you can see clearly there is false bottom in the box. - The ad claims you can do the "which hand" effect, yes you can do it but with very big limitations which defeats the routine purpose, for example I cannot detect the object in a closed fist until I did the detection from a specific angle. - No indicator of low battery, if the battery is low you will miss some readings but not all which is very confusing. - The detection range is very short -varies from object to object- (plz refer to Ustad's post about the detection ranges). - Don't expect the sensor to detect items which work on similar technology, it is preprogrammed to identify the included items only. Pros - You get several different objects which allows you to do different routines with this system. I bought more expensive effects, but this effect super passed them on the number of included items. - The gimmicked objects look normal like common everyday objects-even the special playing cards they look normal-. - The sensor and receiver are separate devices which allows you to be far from the spectator to about 5 meters distance – according to Ustad's experiment-. - The coding system is very easy to decipher, I've other similar devices which has confusing codes on anything above 3. - It is not necessary to use same type objects in the routine, you can mix the objects types -for example you can mix the finger ring, the button, a casino chip, an ESP symbol and an any ungimmicked object-, just keep in mind the mix should not include 2 objects with the same code. - The chips have colors and values, also the ESP symbols have colors and values which gives this system another dimension by detecting the values and the colors. - The price is very good compared to other electronic devices which they can do only one thing, this is true multi-routines system. - You can do some routines hands off while your back is turned which adds another layer of deception. Conclusion While this system has some serious cons but it has also big potential, it is multi-purpose system and you get more bang for your bucks. Let your imagination fly and you will get interesting ideas and routines using this system. BTW: plz refer to Ustad's review to get a better insight about this system.
