    A bit of googling and it looks like snake oil to me.

    They are very vague about how this actually works other than a waffly claim that the needles are "powered" by magnets and the granting of an "intellectual patent". Magnets do not release power so this is sales puff rather than any scientific claim. No subastantiation whatever regarding the "electromagnetic" mentioned in it's title (Neodymium magnets are NOT elecromagnetic).

    They do not state who granted the "intellectual patent", but note that this is different to a patent and again reeks of snake oil

    Wording and phraseology is not normal English nor American and I would suspect a translation.

    Have been completely unable to track down the manufacturer but it might be Shooting Technology in Italy.

    I have no doubt that they kit does clean cases but IMO wet tumbling with stainless steel pins will work as well at a fraction of the price.

    For that price it’s worth a punt especially if it has the media (steel/ ceramic) with it 👍
