It appears everywhere you look people keep calling these cprime bracelets a scam. We were determined to get to the bottom of these claims. So what is everyone saying is a scam about the cprime bracelet? The first thing we found was people are saying these
bracelets are faulty. We have seen claims of the magnets completely failing out of the clasps, that sucks. So how can you wear a $100 bracelet if you are always scared it is going to fall off. We feel sorry for they guy that lost his fishing.
The second cprime bracelet scam claim we came across regarding the technology the company claims the bracelets have. Well according to a few videos we found online these are just plastic bands with foil inside, WTF? How is a piece of foil going to do anything? This in our opinion is probably the biggest reason to call scam on these things.
Lastly, the internet is apparently littered with claims of MLM scams created by this company. Do you buy shoes or pants from multi level sales people, hell no. Then why are people foolish enough to getting conned into become jewelry salesmen. Here is a clue for anyone that is confused how to buy products. True or False the still in box speakers people try to sell you at gas stations and parking lots are crap. Legitimate speaker companies sell their products in retail locations. People that petal products directly, using tricks are scam artists.
Here is a challenge for anyone that thinks plastic and foil can make you a better athlete. Get three exactly same sized boxes, place a cprime bracelet in one box, a plastic wrist watch in one, and a refrigerator magnet in the other. Get people to attempt the demonstration while holding each of the three boxes. Record which box the individuals feel offers the best results. Here is a hit, the first time try to twist your body you will not be as flexible as the second time you twist.
Post your results in the comment section. We have attempted the same test on over 15 different individuals. After all tests were complete the results are as follows:
- Wrist watch – 8 Votes
- Magnet – 4 Votes
- Cprime Bracelet – 3 Votes
Our final conclusion, Yes the cprime bracelet is a scam.
It is easy to do the demos wrong, for starters! Even the flexibility one, there are right ways and wrong ways to set the flexibility standard with each person! There are also some more powerful demonstrations that don’t require a3rd party that we encourage you to find your local cprime deal and try yourself! The best place to get some video information is actually here:

This is a live training demonstrations! I think anyone questioning cprime should most definitely watch this video. THEN go an get the demos to you…then to really really understand it….do the demos to someone you trust and love (you’ll freak each other out! its awesome!).
Good luck everyone with your overall health and wellness! Nothing replaces good food, good exercise, and good love!
God bless
Love your three box research. A simple fourth grade science experiment that tells you all you need to know.
This guy is definately a power balance dealer.Jealous of Cprimes success. Go find a cprime dealer and have them show you the demos.The difference between power balance and Cprime is laughable….

How can you tell if a wristband is a Power Wristband or just a custom rubber band?
What is the science behind performance wristband technology?
Atlanta, Georgia (2010) — 8ight LLC created the industry of Holographic Signal Transduction Technology in 2006 in La Jolla, California and was the only company making claims of influencing the body holographically at that time. 8ight or Powered By 8ight companies are now operating in 10 countries around the world.
The industry has now grown to over $100 million in sales and there are dozens of companies entering the market claiming influences on the body using wristbands or other wearing apparel. Unfortunately little science or even explanation, and certainly no machine testing, is presented by the vast majority of companies to back up their claims.
If you see a wristband that you like the looks of, buy it, but if you want a performance wristband and you see no science on the website or you see esoteric descriptions of channeling, or inner forces that create un-measurable claims from ions, just know you are likely not getting a real performance wristband that will increase your strength endurance, stamina, balance, and flexibility. If the company name has Power in the name be careful and check the science and description of what they are claiming.
Machine testing and research with a double blind study is only way to prove the effects of a hologram or holographic wristband on the human body. 8ight has done extensive testing with live blood, heart rate variability, thermal imaging, ORP, pH, biocoherence and body voltage to measure effects that are positive for the body. In addition, a major
university as just finished a pilot study and submitted the study for publication confirming the claims of Powered By 8ight holograms.
“An independent university research lab has completed a double-blind, placebo-controlled, repeated-measures, PILOT study. This pilot study found that participants using the 8ight holographic disks have better muscular endurance than placebo. These findings have been submitted to ACSM for presentation.” Expanded studies are currently being planned.
No other companies selling holograms or holographic wristbands have submitted their products to a major university for a double blind, placebo controlled study.
8ight is licensed with numerous universities and organizations to create custom performance wristbands with individual school logos on the bands. Initial Universities approving 8ight as a licensee are Alabama, South Carolina, Clemson, FSU, LSU and SMU. It is anticipated three additional universities will we added this year and 24 more will be added in 2011. Numerous high schools and colleges are using Powered By 8ight technology in several states including Alabama, Georgia, and Texas.
8ight research revealed in 2006 that the body can be energetically influenced passively, no drugs or chemicals, by exposing the body to colors, numbers and geometric patterns in a concentrated way using a thermoelectric effect known as the Seebeck effect in physics. This effect is targeted on acupuncture points to create the same effect as explained in acupuncture manuals using needles.
Acupuncture is being used more and more in athletics in the U.S. with good results and is used and approved throughout the world. 8ight Performance wristbands could actually be termed acupuncture-on-the-go bands due to the prolonged effect on acupuncture points that can provide pain relief and other effects known in acupuncture. 8ight technology is also currently being carried in 1500 independent pharmacies in the U.S.
The 8ight holographically reflective process is similar to a person exposing their body to the sun and having vitamin D3 levels go up and melanin levels increase, causing the body to tan. Nothing is consumed to create this effect and it all occurs from the thermal and light spectrum reaction to the sun.
8ight is using a similar process of reflection with holographic film and differences in temperature on each side of the hologram to create an energetic acupoint stimulation. We are constantly testing different holographic material to improve this signaling process.
With regard to colors, numbers, and geometric patterns, there have been numerous studies done on these effects and how the body responds. You can see the details in the Science Center on 8ight.com. Of particular interest is the number 8. It became apparent early on, with machine testing, that the number 8 had a positive influence on
the body and if the sign of infinity was added to the number 8 the effect was magnified. We then added an octagon around the double 8s and the energetic effect improved again.
8ight then started doing research around the world and found numerous references to the number 8 in every culture. The Chinese started the Olympics on 8/8/08 at 8:08 p.m. to bring good fortune and success to the Olympic Games. So we laser the geometric and numeric 8 patterns in the center of all 8ight holograms and the influence Of 8ight is there for every wearer. We live in tough economic times and everyone needs all the help they can get. More interesting information on this can be found on 8ight.com under About Us.
To create the effects of the example of the sun, there has to be a way to capture the light signatures and imprint on the holograms. This area was the hardest to determine but became the most powerful. We created a way to convert light signatures to sound and sound to longitudinal scalar waves to imprint the holograms. The reason for longitudinally scalar waves is that energy and information can be transmitted in the same wave form and the scalar wave will transmit through any material no matter how thick. So if we are programming 10 wrist bands or 10,000 we get the exact same effect.
We also use this array to program not only the holograms in the bands but also the bands themselves. We are including different minerals in the bands now to add to the effects we are seeking which is a negative ion effect to add alkalinity to the body. We live in a toxic world and our bodies are negatively influenced by acidic foods, acidic drinks and positive ions in the form of EMF’s in the air. We can counterbalance part of this issue by exposing the body to negative ions in a similar way as walking by the ocean.
The use of all this technology is dramatic for not only athletes of all ages, but to the general public and the aging population. We are seeing sales of our bands and holograms increasing to the Baby Boomers due to the normal aging process affecting balance, strength, and pain as noted in acupuncture. So when you see claims of power bands increasing strength endurance, stamina, balance, and flexibility, and you do not see Powered By 8ight on the wristband, then you need to check the proof of claims on the company’s website.
If you see no explanation of how the band is affecting the body and no proof of the explanation then the science is just not there and you are likely overpaying for a fancy rubber band.
The overall goal of 8ight is to increase the quality of life for every person who utilizes our technology, and the use of Powered By 8ight wristbands is just one of a number of ways we are achieving our goals.

I think outside the box when it comes to unorthodox ways of doing things. After watching my husband deal with serious pain that no one can identify but have to take numerous heavy duty drugs. Pain that wakes him up from his sleep to take more meds.
We figured we would give it a try. He is fit and stays well hydrated (most ppl do not!) The very first night and every night since, he has slept till he was ready to wake up! That is not a placebo effect and no they do not claim to help medical conditions. (we have tried magnets too) but I am thrilled to see my husband get relief and go back to more working out
If you are really desperate, there is no harm trying it out for yourself to see if it really works.
