ORBIT BITWHIP PACKAGE

What is the ORBIT BITWHIP Accessory?

The ORBIT BITWHIP Accessory is comprised of 140 or 200 end glow fibers that are cut at various lengths. These fibers are locked into a rotating bearing that is housed within our Universal Threaded Connector. It is most often used as a dance prop for performers.

What is the difference between the ORBIT BITWHIP and the FYBER KIT?

The ORBIT BITWHIP Accessory is comprised of 140 or 200 end glow fibers within a rotating bearing. The fibers are cut at VARIOUS LENGTHS from 6 inches (15 cm) to 5.5 feet (168 cm). The FYBER KIT does not include a bearing, and it is comprised of 360 end glow fibers that are ALL 6 feet (183 cm) in length.

What's the difference between the 140 and 200 fiber option?

The only difference is the number of fibers, and the rest is a personal preference. The more fibers = the brighter it is. The more fibers = the less you care if some fibers break.

Can I custom order any length for the ORBIT BITWHIP?

We do not offer custom lengths for this product.

Can I modify the cut or length of my fibers?

Yes, you can cut the fibers to any length using a household pair of scissors. Simply cut the fibers, and they will have the same effect where cut.

I would like to have the sparkle effect applied to my fibers. How do I do this?

You can easily create sparkle effect fibers by creating small abrasions to the fiber surface by lightly rubbing low-grit sandpaper on each side of the fibers. Please note, these small abrasions will make the fibers weaker and more prone to breaking.

How do I properly store the product?

End glow fiber optics have memory and will conform to whatever shape they are stored in. We recommend storingyour fibers loosely curled within a bag or hanging them straight down from the top of your closet door.See our tutorial on "Transporting and Storing" for more.

How do I clean the fibers of my ORBIT BITWHIP Accessory?

Wash the fibers with a small amount of dish detergent in room temperature water. Dry with a towel or hang, then reapply lubricant at your discretion. See our tutorial on "Light Whip Cleaning & Lubrication" for more.

Do I need to use lubrication on my ORBIT BITWHIP Fibers?

It's not necessary, but it will improve the "fluid" feel of the fibers as they wrap around your body.We recommend using the "Swiss Navy" silicone lubricant.See our tutorial on "Light Whip Cleaning & Lubrication" for more.

The ORBIT BITWHIP Fibers are catching snags while I flow. What do I do?

First, eliminate potential snags on your body, such as jewelry, buttons, and zippers. The fibers flow much better on fabric than your skin, so be sure to wear something fun that covers you up. See our tutorial on "What to Wear" for more.

Some of my fibers are breaking. Is this normal?

It's normal for your ORBIT BITWHIP Fibers will shed or break over time. Extend their life by using the product on soft or smooth surfaces (carpet or grass), never bending the fibers, or only using at room temperatures.

What environments can the ORBIT BITWHIP be used in?

Use all AOAM products at room temperature.

Can I get my fibers wet?

Yes.Regular washing is encouraged to keep dirt from diminishing the brightness of the end glow fibers.See our tutorial on "Light Whip Cleaning & Lubrication" for more.

My fibers are curling or straightening too much. What can I do?

Your ORBIT BITWHIP or FYBER KIT may develop unwanted curls or straightened fibers. If that's the case, then you'll want to adjust how your end glow fiber optic product is stored. This is because end glow fibers will conform to the shape that they are stored. If you want more curls, then store the fibers curled. If you want straighter fibers, then hang the product from your closet door until the fibers straighten out.
DO NOTexpose them to temperatures that cause the plastic to melt. This will deform the fibers and cause them to bend. If you do want to use heat to manipulate the fibers, use the heat source on a small sample size of the product. If you like the effect, then you can apply it to the rest of the fibers. Melting or bending fibers is not reversible.
