Atom 2 Smart Remote

Welcome to Atom 2 — the smartest remote on the market. This tiny device will help you control apps, devices, and create amazing moments of magic.

How Atom 2 Works

Atom 2 is a versatile Bluetooth remote that works in three ways:

With Apps

Control magic apps on your phone:

iPhone/Android Phone → PeekSmith App → Atom 2

Atom works with PeekSmith app and other magic apps. Send commands, trigger effects, and control what happens on screen — all from your pocket.

With Other Devices

Connect directly to Electricks devices without needing a phone:

Atom 2 → PeekSmith 3
Control what appears on your PeekSmith 3 device.

Atom 2 → SB Watch
Set and reveal times on your SB Watch.

Atom 2 → Other Devices
Connect to Bond, Teleport, Quantum, and more.

For details, see Compatibility.

Standalone Mode (Mini-Apps)

Run mini-apps directly on Atom without phone or internet:

Atom 2 supports MagiScript — you can create mini-apps that run on the device independently. Built-in mini-apps include card forces, number forces, time controls, and more.

See Built-in Mini-Apps for the full list.

As Bluetooth Keyboard

Atom can function as a Bluetooth keyboard, letting you type into any app:

Enter numbers with Numeric Keyboard
Type text with various keyboard layouts
Control media playback
Act as a mouse cursor

Perfect for entering information silently and hands-free.

Quick Start

Get up and running in 5 minutes.

1. Charge Your Device

Before first use: Charge Atom for at least 1 hour.

Connect the included USB-C cable to Atom and plug it into any USB port.

Charging indicators:

Yellow LED — Low battery, charging
Red LED — Charging in progress
Green LED — Fully charged

Charging time: ~2 hours for full charge
Battery life: ~3 hours of continuous use

Pro tip: Charge before every performance to ensure reliable operation.

2. Turn It On

Important: Disconnect the charger first — Atom cannot turn on while charging.

Press and hold the power button (on the back) until you feel a vibration. The LED will turn cyan for 5 seconds — this is Launch Mode.

Low battery warning: If the LED blinks yellow 3 times when turning on, the battery is too low. Charge for at least 1 hour before trying again.

3. Understanding Launch Mode

When Atom starts, the cyan LED indicates Launch Mode — you have 5 seconds to launch a mini-app by pressing buttons #1–#11.

Launch Mode options:

Press button #1–#11 to launch that mini-app
Wait 5 seconds to use Atom as standalone remote (no mini-app)
Double-click power button anytime to re-enter Launch Mode

Set auto-launch: Press and hold power button, then press the mini-app button you want to auto-start. Be careful not to hold too long or Atom will turn off.

4. Download the PeekSmith App

Download the PeekSmith app to configure Atom and update firmware.

Sign in: Use Apple ID (iOS) or Google account (Android) — required for most features.

5. Update Firmware

Connect to Atom in the PeekSmith app and update to the latest firmware for new features and improvements.

Why update? New mini-apps, better battery life, and bug fixes are added regularly.

See Firmware Update Guide for instructions.

6. Try Your First Mini-App

Launch a mini-app to test Atom’s capabilities:

Turn on Atom (cyan LED appears)
During the 5-second Launch Mode, press button #1 (launches first mini-app)
Follow the mini-app’s LED indicators and vibration feedback
Double-click power button to exit and return to Launch Mode

Explore Built-in Mini-Apps to see what’s available.

✅ Charge fully before performances
✅ Charge every 2-3 months, even if not using
✅ Use any standard USB charger (avoid “smart” fast chargers)
✅ Turn off between routines to save battery

Avoid this:

❌ Letting battery drain completely (damages LiPo batteries)
❌ Trying to turn on while charging (it won’t work)
❌ Using extremely high-power chargers (some won’t detect Atom)

Battery indicators:

Yellow blinks = Low battery, charge soon
Cyan LED = Normal operation
Red/Yellow/Green while charging = Status indicator

Common Questions

Atom won’t turn on

Check these things:

Is the battery charged? (Charge for 1 hour minimum)
Is it disconnected from the charger? (Cannot turn on while charging)
Does the LED blink yellow 3 times? (Battery too low, charge longer)
Are you holding the power button long enough? (Hold until vibration)

For more help, see Troubleshooting.

How do I use Atom as a keyboard?

Launch a keyboard mini-app from Launch Mode. There are several keyboard options:

Numeric Keyboard — For entering numbers
Bluetooth Keyboard — Full keyboard functionality
Custom Keyboard — Create your own layout

iOS tip: When Atom is paired as a keyboard, the on-screen keyboard hides. Tap Atom’s power button to toggle the virtual keyboard back on.

Can I create my own mini-apps?

Yes! Atom supports MagiScript — a simple programming language for creating custom mini-apps.

Even if you’ve never coded before, you can start with preloaded apps or adapt examples. The MagiScript documentation has tutorials and examples to get you started.

What’s the battery life?

Current firmware provides approximately 3 hours of continuous use. Battery life improvements are planned for future firmware updates.

Tip: Turn Atom off between routines to extend battery life during performances.

Atom 1 (Deprecated)

Atom 1 is no longer supported. We offered a free upgrade program to Atom 2.

If you have Atom 1 battery issues: Unplug it and wait until the battery fully drains (3 days). Then try charging again. If it doesn’t start, remove from charger immediately and try later. Once it turns on, charge fully.
