Little a@$$**** keep stealing it cause they can play basketball after dark. That's great but this is the second one I've had to purchase in the summer. The kids act like moths to a flame with this ball. The teens like it too because it's not too far off from a court ball. it's a rec ball for outside play of course. I just sprayed the hoop with glow in the dark paint and they play for hours. I haven't had to replace the batteries because someone takes it home when I'm not around so I give up. The light is pretty bright. These are great Christmas gifts I guess. For every grad party (I have had 4) they play for hours so it keeps the boredom down for teens. Good grip and bounce. Good purchase.

Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2021
Style Name: Rubber (No Pump)Verified Purchase
This ball is super cool, BRIGHTLY lit, and makes it possible to play basketball well after the sun goes down. While the material is not the same as a regular basketball, it absolutely bounces and works just like a regular ball. Yes, the content is stamped on, but does anyone really care about the stamped content on a ball? We're here to play and shoot, not sit and look at pretty basketball stamped lines!

The price point is pretty awesome, considering if allows one to play ball well into the late evening. To get the most out of this purchase, I encourage my son to use his regular basketballs during the day but using this ball in the evening only. This way he can get the most out it and get it to last longer.

My son eats, breathes and sleeps basketball. This present was purchased for Christmas 2020. We hadn't had the need to change out the batteries as this is mainly the ball he uses at night. I recently went to switch out the batteries with the company provided batteries but the lights didn't work. I tried my own set of batteries and those also didn't work. I used a battery tester and can confirm all sets of batteries (both from the company and my supply) were in good condition.

While I hoped for the best but prepared for the worst, I reached out to GlowCity to see if they would consider sending replacement lights. WOW just wow. They were very quick to respond and sent out lights immediately. I just received the package and noticed they sent TWO sets of lights.

In today's world, it is increasingly rare to find a company that actually cares about the customer and demonstrates this level of customer service. It's to the point that we've also all come to just accept that it is what it is. GlowCity provided a level of support that reminds you they still give a cr@p.

Really cool ball, really great company!! I'd 10000% purchase from this company again and would recommend this as a super cool ball for any basketball lover.

This was such an awesome gift. It lights up great, has a good heaviness, and bounces even better than the regular basketball. My only complaint is that it doesn't come in different sizes. So, it's a tad bigger than what women play with. Still, we love it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Its a really cool ball
Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2024
Style Name: Rubber (No Pump)Verified Purchase
I love this ball. I bought this for my girlfriends 10 year old son for Christmas and it stole the show. He didn't want to play with anything else and hes still using it everyday in the back yard months later. The batteries are easy to install and i havnt had to replace them yet but it comes with a battery removal tool and extra batteries. The only thing negative is that one of the battery cover knobs sticks out just a bit on the one i bought but doesn't affect the ball at all even if you bounce it on that spot. My 11 year old daughter has the soccer ball version and its great too. I did have a little trouble starting the inflation process on the bball or it would be 5 star.

This basketball is okay. The glow part works fairly well and its cool to use at night. The batteries do not last long though. However, my 12 year old has some complaints. He plays basketball daily.

Ball wurde zusammen mit einer Anleitung und einem Werkzeug zur besseren Entnahme der Gummi Stopfen für einen Batterie Wechsel geliefert.
Was soll ich Gross schreiben Luft rein und auf geht's der Ball hüpft gut. Stinkt leicht nach Gummi aber nur minimal. Leucht Effekt WOW endlich bei Nacht spielen. Die LED schalten sich aus so bald der Ball nicht mehr aufschlägt. Ansonsten leuchten sie immer auch bei Tageslicht. Aber hey bei Tag nehme ich meinen Basketball ohne LED. Ich bin sehr zufrieden.

Als Batterien kommen insgesamt 6 Knopfzellen zum Einsatz je 3 pro LED es sind 2 LEDs im Ball vorhanden
