【Voltage Compatibility】
When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.
【Plug Type】
Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type).
Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.
【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】
A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements.
A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage.
Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.
【Liability】
We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer.

The size allows the bell to be stored and is convenient to carry (*Depending on the shape of the bell and the shape of the case, it may not be possible to store it)
Ultra-lightweight and strong! A special structure that can only be achieved with a 3D printer makes it both lightweight and strong.
Sound-proof capsule: A type of capsule with a high sound-proofing effect, which can be as quiet as a person talking. Although the resistance when playing is strong, the sound-proofing effect is so great that you cannot hear someone practicing in the next room unless you pay attention.
Capsule specialised for playing feel... A capsule designed to reduce the sense of resistance when playing. Although the sound-dampening effect is modest, it is close to the feeling of playing without a mute, making it ideal for midday practice when you don't have to worry about disturbing your neighbours.
