Sleuth Ball
Conquer deception and detect lies with "Sleuth Ball", a captivating, entertaining and unique piece of mentalism for close-up and stage.
NEW "Mini" version now available!"
Four white balls and a singular black ball are discreetly distributed to five different audience members who are instructed to keep them out of sight in their pockets. You then invite them to play a simple game. Whoever has the black ball must lie when you ask them a question. Everyone else must tell the truth.
No matter how skilled of a liar the person who holds the black ball is, you'll always be able to identify them with 100% accuracy.
"Sleuth Balls" operate on two long-life batteries (included) that can last for over two years. Even better, if one battery runs out of power, the other one automatically kicks in.
Put simply, the "Sleuth Ball" allows you to perform with confidence every time.
Get the standard size (black) or grab the portable "Sleuth Ball Mini" (brown)!

Mark asks: What are the internal dimensions of the Mini box? Will it accommodate a card box/deck of cards?
- 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds:This wont fit a deck of cards inside
Christian asks: Is the process the following one : The box with the lid open is on a table. The magician knows the five audience members who are going to pick a ball. The magician turns his back. Each of the five audience members picks a ball in a random order, not known by the magician, and conceals his ball. The magician can know who has the black ball. Note : for the fourth step, it is not the same thing if the magician knows the order in which each of the audience members picks a ball.
- 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds:You can determine who has chosen the black ball every time, this can be 5 random people doesn’t need to be known to the magician

Demian asks: One more question: On the Iarvel website, it mentions that this comes with a screwdriver and an SIM ejector. Are those included if we purchase through Vanishing Inc.? Thanks.
- 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds:Yes, Everything is included with this
Demian asks: Hi. You have mentioned that the batteries are replaceable. What kind of batteries does this use, and how easy are they to replace? Thank you.

Rodney asks: I own MIND BALL which is kind of the same thing as this one except MIND BALL has 5 different color ball(s) and you can tell what color ball is removed from the box... MY QUESTION (S) if I have mind ball, is it worth also buying this product? Do they work the exact same way? since the boxes look the same, are they universal with both sets of ball(s)?
- 1. Vanishing Inc. Magic responds:The methods are different. As to whether you should get it if you already have "Mind Ball", then that is up to you!
Tom asks: The spheres appear to be a high-gloss paint -- yes? Are they lightweight like a ping pong orb, or heavier like in golf? More importantly, are they durable or can they be damaged if a spectator drops?
- 1. Iarvel responds:They are made high-quality resin, so similar to billiard or pool balls, it has a good weight to it. Most importantly, yes, they are very durable, not easily damaged even if the spectators drop it.
Tom asks: What is the size of the box (length in particular)? And what is the diameter of the balls?
- 1. Iarvel responds:The box measures at 30cm, and the ball is 4.25cm.
