Got a glow protostar in the mail, my other one fell apart. Thing is I don’t know how to charge it. Kinda dumb I know. Anyone have this yoyo, or another factory yoyo that glows?

also if you have a black light…those things work super well at charging glow in the dark things! 😃

were you just going outside in the sun? i’m guessing that won’t charge it very well, try holding it right under a light bulb.

Really direct sunlight should work better than a light bulb.
