Old School Made New School: The Non-Stop Top

Any kids play Tops anymore? With the assortment of digital devices, gadgets and computer things available, I doubt many older kids will find much enjoyment out of jacks or tops anymore. But for those younger ones that might, here’s a modern twist on tops: The Non Stop Top.

More from the website:

The Non Stop Top bucks the laws of physics with ease, you spin it and off it goes, not for a minute, not ten, not twenty, not an hour, but for up to eight hours!! All it takes is a gentle twist and the motory gizmos inside the top (powered by a couple of watch batteries) spring into action, the lights flash bright and before you know it, it’s picking up speed and steadily working its way around your desk. Addictive, silly, mesmeric, and strangely not as impossible as you’d have thought. You could probably win quite a wad of cash by taking bets from the uninformed as to how long your new top will spin.

2 CR2032 batteries power this £9.99 toy, and it works wonders passing the time at the office, or for a young child to stare at for hours to keep their eyes busy.
