148 has a ball magnet. 217 has a ball magnet. 1114 has a ball magnet. These types of things are often imitated, but never duplicated.
What would you consider something like what 1726 has where the ball spins in front of the bot instead of inside it. They still hold onto the ball when they back up its just different. It would be ironic if that had another name since 1726 coined the term ball magnet I believe.
