HACKER by Jeet x Les French Twins
Magic evolves with the times, and HACKER is proof of that. Imagine being able to create an immersive experience for your audience without them ever suspecting how it’s done. HACKER allows magicians to perform a mind-bending trick in the most tech-savvy way possible -- by broadcasting personalized wifi networks that appear out of thin air, making it look like you've actually hacked the spectator's phone!
This electronic device secretly generates up to 100 wifi networks per second, and what makes it truly magical is that you can rename those networks to anything you want. Picture this: the wifi list on your spectator’s phone reveals their chosen card, a word they merely thought of, or even their favorite celebrity. The possibilities are endless, and the impact is unforgettable.
The best part? HACKER stays completely hidden. The audience has no idea where the wifi names are coming from, which gives you complete control over the reveal. It’s a perfect example of magic and technology blending to create something that feels truly impossible.

My Experience with HACKER
Using HACKER for the first time was... a total let down. And I'm not the only one with this experience, they stood up an entire Facebook group (which you get access to when you purchase the device) and there were plenty of posts complaining about it just not working.
Don't get me wrong, the device worked, the effect itself didn't. Apparently, a mobile device update occurred right around when HACKER was released and it caused the wifi networks to just not really show up. Ugh... $200 down the drain.
But wait!!! That Facebook group was one of the best ideas because folks came together and they released a couple of updates, and hot damn -- the thing works now!
Personally, I've only used it with friends and family, so I can't say what the actual experience would be like with a group of strangers in a public setting, but the reactions I've received have been beyond amazing. I've only used it with card tricks, but I can easily see the application for other types of mentalism, some of which might be even better than cards.
Final Thoughts
HACKER is a sleek, modern tool for any magician looking to inject a bit of technological flair into their routine. Sleek enough to be an everyday carry, no less. The method is clever, and the reactions it generates are huge. Whether you’re a tech enthusiast or a traditionalist, this is a trick that can bring something new to your performance.
