Does anyone have a recommendation for a light up/led yoyo?

my requirements are:  
-must be butterfly shape  
-able to do intermediate string tricks  
-weigh no more than 67 grams

My goal is to make one of those night shot videos.  
If anyone is interested in a yoyo discord, pm me

The YYF Kui is only 66.3 grams, it has an organic shape, and it’s the only yoyo YYE has in stock in its [Lightup](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/all/lightup) section in the store.  
I don’t know if that helps or if not. 🙂

Hubstack afterglow is the budget choice. Not mind blowing performance. But enjoyable light up fun.

Um, just fasten some micro LEDs to a battery and tape it into the cups of your yoyo.

Interestingly enough, I’ve got my light up zero sitting in pieces in front of me this morning because I need to track down some new batteries.

But aren’t they discontinued?

They light up more impressively than the hubstack afterglow. But I find the response to take more fiddling to get right either as a responsive or unresponsive throw.

I own a Kui and I can tell you it’s a regular metal great playing yoyo that lights up. I don’t know if a better light up yoyo has ever been made.
