I have it, and everything it advertises, it delivers. It is by far the most customisable itr I have ever used. On top of that, the things you can do with it are absolutely mind bending, and that's just the beginning! Its easy to use, reload, fix, customise, reposition, it allows for different rigs, it's crazy. It's probably the last itr you'll ever buy. I only ever buy thread now.
The best itr devices right now would probably be:
1. Venom
2. Spider pen pro
3. A Kevlar thread itr you can buy at a magic shop.
Stay away from Chinese manufacturers. Every single one I have bought overseas comes with this garish white thread, and rattles like an angry Hornets nest. I personally use spectra thread.
If you want more information into ITRs, I suggest buying a cheap one, learning a rig, and seeing for yourself if you like it. I will say that I love them. I'll wear up to three rigs at a time, space providing

You can throw T2 in the list as well. Same quality as Spider pen pro, But a bit cheaper, And more casual I think.
In my opinion, Venom is wonderful but you can't use it in every condition. Those who own it know what I mean. The ability to perform it in nearly all environments is what we prioritized when looking at this kind of product, which is why we went with Tarantula 2. The whole point of invisible thread is in its name (invisible), which the Tarantula 2 does a better job of as a whole.
From my experience, just about every single itr is gonna have wardrobe restrictions. The benefit of venom is that it is flexible and customizable. I like how you can easily change thread on it, something that I've always disliked about most other itr.
As for pro v con:
Pros: much more versatile than t2
Entirely mechanical, no motors
Durability
Much more freedom of motion when in play
More customizable than t2
Cons: more expensive than t2
Initially is more visible than t2
More clothing restrictive (depending on rig)
Reset after break takes some time.
I heard a rumor that Magie Factory is coming out with a Venom 2.0 this year. Anyone else heard something about this?

Here is a link to stay in the loop for it.

The new ITR Venom is highly regarded for its durability, reliability, and mechanical design, making it excellent for levitations. It’s compact, strong, and easily concealable, suitable for both close-up and parlor magic. If you’re looking for alternatives, the i-Micro Ultimate Levitation Device and Tarantula 2 are also popular, each with their own strengths like compactness or rechargeable convenience. Since you only have loops so far, Venom is a solid choice for a first high-quality ITR.
Just because we're on the topic and I just got my venom ITR out for the first time in a while to prepare for my Venom ITR Pro preorder to come, what would you guys recommend for replacement thread for the original Venom? As I recall they didnt sell refills to the US and I've tried wooly nylon thread and never got it to work. Someone recommended Vectra X2 thread but it was out of stock everywhere at the time when I last used my Venom. Thank you!
