How long is the chain and do you know if you can get different chain lengths?

I have two pairs of the corded, but I don't remember if I got them from Century or Karate Depot.  They are my favorite chucks. Trust me, you can break them.  I've gone through three others already, and one that I have has already been broken and glued a couple of times.  They all broke at the top where the cord holes are drilled, so ball bearings might hold up better.

Update: ive got about 35 hours or so on these bad boys and they are still going strong, even when practiced on concrete. it received a small chip on the end of a handle due to a high speed impact but the quality of freestyles not affected. and on the question of wieght i dont own a scale but id say they are heavy enough to keep good momentum but light enough not to break faces.




 i got two more pair so i could do doubles, and these are a bit different, slightly heavier and slightly darker, but still fantastic.
