| If you are… | Get | Because |
|---|---|---|
| A student on the tightest possible budget | Economy Superconductivity Kit $139 |
The cheapest kit that still runs the real demonstration, not a toy version of it. |
| Chasing the classic “hangs in mid-air” board photo | YBCO Meissner & Flux Pinning Disk $349 |
The flagship demo kit — the one that’s won actual science fairs. |
| Not allowed liquid nitrogen at your fair or school | Magnetic Train Science Fair Kit From $69 |
No cryogenics at all — permanent-magnet levitation, same core physics of stability and force. |
| A teacher with a class of 24–30 | Classroom Set From TBD |
Six kits bundled for small-group rotation, with the lesson plan included. |
| A department that wants zero rotation, thirty students at once | Ultimate Classroom Kit $5,799 |
Two tracks and eight handheld devices — built specifically for that number. |
| A university lab that needs real, quantitative data | Superconductivity Experiment Kit From $1,550 |
USB 4-point measurement, so it’s a lab exercise, not only a demonstration. |
| Running a museum or outreach programme | Mini Maglev Kit From $1,497 |
Portable, durable enough for repeat public handling, travels well. |
Questions
Still not sure?
My situation doesn’t match any row above.
Tell us the age group, the room, and the budget through institutional orders, and we’ll recommend rather than upsell — including when the answer is a cheaper kit than the one you were looking at.
Can I start small and upgrade later?
Yes. Most classrooms and labs start with an Economy kit or two and add capacity as budget allows. The physics is identical across the range; what changes is duration, durability and how many hands can use it at once.
Ready to see the full range?
Twenty-five kits, filterable by audience, cryogenics and budget.
Building it for a science fair? the hoverboard science fair project guide covers the build, which variable to measure and what judges are actually marking.
