Powerball is a trademarked name for gyroscopic exercise devices produced by Nanosecond (NSD). Later patents for the Powerball device cover its extra features such as revolution counters and gyro-powered LED lights. The light-emitting diodes are powered by a small generator embedded in the gyroscope.

Lucky Lines, Megabucks, Win for Life, Powerball, Sports Action, Scoreboard, Pick4 and Keno players have one year from the date of the drawing for which the ticket was purchased to claim any prizes from that drawing. (OAR 177-070-0025)

Whenever the Powerball jackpot reaches a record level, the amount of the jackpot prize is limited to increases for each draw of no more than $25 million. The prize money collected in excess of the maximum $25 million increase will be placed into the Match 5 Bonus prize pool and will accumulate until there is a jackpot winner. When there is a jackpot winner, the Match 5 Bonus prize pool will be divided equally among all winners of the Match 5 prize. The prize will be paid in one cash lump sum. The Match 5 Bonus prize is in addition to any Power Play prizes that may be won and is not multiplied. Although it is unlikely, it is possible that no Match 5 winner will exist for a drawing where the jackpot is won and in which a Match 5 Bonus Prize pool exists.

When the Powerball jackpot reaches record levels, the jackpots will increase by a set $25 million until the jackpot is hit. The prize money collected in excess of the advertised jackpot amount will be placed into a bonus prize pool. When there is a jackpot winner, the bonus prize pool will be divided equally among all winners of the Match 5 prize. The prize will be paid in one cash lump sum. Power Play will not apply to the bonus portion of the prize, although the original Match 5 amount of $200,000 is eligible to multiply.

The Powerball name was first used in 1992, to launch a new brand of paintball in the UK market. The business rapidly out-grew its humble beginnings and became established in its own right in 1994, as Powerball Limited in the Hampshire town of Farnborough. The product range grew to include every item that the growing number of paintball site operators could possibly need to fully equip their paintball sites. Today, Powerball is one of the largest suppliers to the paintball trade in Europe.
