I never noticed, because it usually detonates over the enemy and nowhere near me, but spinner actually does a lot of damage. Actually, I'm fairly sure it is the most damaging weapon in the game, in ideal conditions.
I first noticed it when using it at point blank range and losing a thousand point lead thanks to it detonating right in my face. Upon further testing, if detonated at ground level right under you, it can do up to a little over 3000 damage to you. In one shot. If you want to try this yourself, rack up the points however you want in practice range, get to ground level, and fire a spinner with your turret angled at 270 degrees.
Now as for actual in game usage, the trick seems to be detonating the spinner on or under an enemy tank, which is nearly impossible unless you can get close. If you manage to get close and angle your turret so the resulting explosion hits the enemy tank more than your tank, you should still be able to rack up at least 1000 to 1500 points of damage on them. It's not super practical, but if you're close together anyways because someone used a magnet, it's basically a free win. The ideal position seems to be your bumper overlapping theirs, turret angled at 342 or 210, depending on orientation.
It's important you be at ground level for it to work though, as for whatever reason, the spinner won't expand (which is why the damage is so focused I guess) when you detonate it in the ground, as opposed to on green land.
