Cross a wireless bullet vibe with a Wiimote and you will end up with the Lelo Lyla. Just like how you can interact with the Wii through moving the Wiimote, you can interact with the Lyla by moving it’s remote, both of which have a rumble feature. If your partner is a video game addict, this would make the perfect couples’ toy, and would be very intuitive for them. Just make sure they don’t fling the remote across the room. There’s no strap to hold onto.

I’m a nerd who’s married to a geek, alright? It’s hard for me not to compare the two. DFTBA

General Info

• Bullet Size: 3-3/4" x 1-1/4"
• Remote Control Size: 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" (round)
• Material: Silicone and ABS plastic (hypoallergenic, latex & phthalates-free)
• Colors: Rose, Cerise Pink
• Noise: 1/5 On the lowest level, I can barely hear the bullet. The remote is a 2/5 on the lowest, though. You’ll notice the difference in the demo video.
• Intensity: 4/5 on the highest setting. The vibrations are rumbly and deep, perfect for those who shy away from buzzy vibes.
• Batteries: Rechargeable (2 AAA for remote control, included); two-hour charge provides up to two hours of use
• Waterproof: Yes
• Compatible Lubricant: water-based lube only
• Uses: Great for clitoral stimulation, nipple stimulation, etc. Just don’t use it anally, which could result in a trip to the ER to get it removed.

Just a short demo video. You’ll have to pardon my awkwardness at moments, and basically talking with my hands towards the end. Also, the metallic plastic cap on the Lyla pops off and that’s where you plug the cord in to charge it. Sorry… I kind of forgot to mention that…

I’ll admit, I’ve been pretty slow about getting this review out, but I really wanted to give the Lelo Lyla a fair chance to prove itself.

Issues

Wireless Problems: The first time I had played with the Lelo Lyla, I hadn’t actually used it inside of my vagina. I was basically just messing around with it to see how the sense motion modes work, and was having a blast. I’m just nerdy like that. Play with the toy like a kid at Christmas first, then actually use it for it’s intended purpose.

Well, I was on Twitter the same night and noticed a couple of reviewers complaining about the wireless capabilities when inserted, and I thought that was kind of weird, so I immediately tested it out. And… I had the same problem. The reception of the Lyla was spotty, at best. I think, at the end of the night, there were at least 7 other reviewers who were having issues like I was.

Not happy with this, I tried it several times with little success, and decided to contact Lelo. Well, that seemed to fix things. After speaking with the for a while, I decided to try it out a couple more times and thought I got it working.

So, what was the problem? Well, it wasn’t the batteries, charge, or the cord not being out. The problem was that the cord wasn’t pointing towards the front of my body. That was the only thing that was different during the time it was working. I had figured it out! Woo! Or, at least that’s what I thought…

I found out later that unless the remote is pointing towards the cord, nothing is going to happen. Keeping the cord toward the front of my body was only helping because I was pointing the remote at my front. If I tried to use the remote behind my back, the wireless connection was spotty. So, unless the cord is towards the back of your partner’s body, don’t expect to be able to easily give them a buzz when you’re standing behind them. Lying stomach-down with the Lyla underneath me, the remote works decently, but it was still a little spotty. The wireless reception can be blocked by flesh, and sometimes even just clothes, if they’re thick.

Yes, I can get it to work all the way across my apartment, but the remote has to be in a fairly direct line with the cord on the Lyla.

Vibrating Remote Options: Although the option of my husband being able to feel the exact vibrations that he’s causing me to feel with the Lyla is interesting, I would still like the option to be able to turn off the vibration of the remote in the SenseMotion modes. I mean, why wouldn’t I want it to gently rumble inside me while we’re out and wait for the surprise burst of intensity if he decides to flick the remote? I want custom vibrations when we’re out, too!

The Pin: I know some people like promotional items, and the pin is very nice, but it’s not really necessary, much like the dice on the PicoBong packages. Plus, I would probably be hoping that nobody would recognize it, if I wore it. (Closet sex toy reviewer) Of course, this doesn’t affect the toy, it’s just something that bugs me a little.

The Key: I don’t really like having to have a key to open it, especially if I happen to lose said key.

Plastic: ABS plastic may be lightweight and cheap, but.. well, it’s cheap. From Lelo, I would almost expect stainless steel instead of plastic, but that’s just my opinion.

Power: If Lyla is rechargeable, why can’t the remote be rechargeable?

Lube: Why does the packet of lube that Lelo included with the Lyla have aspartame in it? It’s not even intended for oral, but as an aid to insert the Lyla. So… Why is there artificial sweetener in it?

Cleaning and Care

I’ve been cleaning my Lyla and remote with toy wipes, but you can use toy cleaner, too. Just don’t use anything that contains alcohol, petrol or acetone. You can also wash the silicone with warm water and antibacterial soap, rinse with clean hot water and pat dry with a lint-free cloth or towel. Make sure you have the plastic cap screwed on tightly, so that you don’t get water in the DC socket.

Avoid leaving the Lelo Lyla in direct sunlight and never expose it to extreme heat. Keep it in a dust-free place and away from other toys. When toys are stored touching each other, they can actually fuse together.

For storage, you could put everything back in the box. It’s very sturdy, should last throughout the years, and has forms that cradle everything perfectly. Or, you could just stick everything in the storage bag and keep it in a place where there would be no threat of being crushed.

My Opinion

I really like where Lelo was going with this toy, but there are some things that could be improved upon. For what I’ve come to expect from Lelo, the Lyla is a little underwhelming. I love Lelo for introducing toys with SenseMotion technology, but it doesn’t quite seem to be perfected yet. It’s almost like getting a program in beta; nice, but the kinks haven’t all been worked out yet.

Now, I do know some people that haven’t had any issues, but I know more that have. So, I don’t know if it’s the luck of the draw, or what. LELO did offer to send me a replacement free of charge in exchange for the one I have but, with so many other reviewers having the same issues, I kind of doubt that would fix the problem, and didn’t worry about it.

Even though Monday is Halloween, there’s still plenty of time left to score some treats in this year’s Halloween sales! This one doesn’t end until November 4, 2011!

Bad Dragon has been toiling extensively for months with sales, holidays, and conventions, and with all those toys sold, they’ve occasionally had toys that didn't quite match their high standards. Maybe there was a small bubble, maybe the coloring was off, or some other small issue. Instead of just throwing these toys out, they put them up for adoption, selling them at discounted rates of up to 50% off!  They all need loving/horny homes -  so be sure to adopt one before they're all gone!

Personally, I have 3 adoptions and love them!

This The Ultimate Guide to Fellatio by Violet Blue was one of the numerous items that I received in Babeland’s Blow Job Expert Kit. Even though I’m doing pretty well at giving my husband head, there’s always room for improvement. I was just hoping it wouldn’t be useless and insulting to my intelligence like a lot of the sex tips that Cosmopolitan puts out… Thankfully, it was much, much better.

About the Author

Violet Blue is an American writer and sex educator, who has authored several books on sex and has edited several volumes of erotica anthologies. Her style of writing is very frank, straightforward, and easy to read and comprehend. Unlike a number of authors, she gets straight to the point without pussyfooting around.

After the main table of contents is another smaller one, letting you know what pages the illustrations are on. The italicized words are titles of short story erotica.

Design

Although the scene depicted on the cover is fairly innocent, the title, which increases in size as it is written, is a dead giveaway. Unless you are around those who are open about their sexuality, it’s best to keep this book hidden.

As for wear and tear, it should keep well. It’s a glossy paperback that is just a little over the normal size for a book.

Things to consider, depending on your comfort level:

• There are illustrations depicting fellatio and whatnot.
• There are short stories (erotica) included.
• Porn, erotica, threesomes, etc. are mentioned with suggestions.

Content

The book starts off with the author explaining her love of fellatio, which shines through the entire book, and explains why she felt the need to write this book; the lack of good information and the abundance of stupid and insulting euphemisms spurred her on.

Instead of just jumping into techniques, Blue starts off by tackling emotional issues that either person in the relationship may have (not just the giver! It’s nice to see someone talk about things from the receiver’s perspective), educates the reader on male anatomy (complete with diagrams), discusses health and hygiene (which includes a chart on STDs and safety), and then discusses techniques, followed by resources. Everything is written in as much detail as possible, without getting dull and text-book-like. The book is peppered with quotes, sometimes followed by advice, breaking things up a bit.

There is a lot of information in this book, and I will probably be going back to it every once in a while (most definitely for the genital massage and pressure point information), because I don’t think I soaked it all in the first time. All of the information is up to date, as I would expect for a book who’s copyright is 2010.

I’ll be honest that I did not read chapter 12, nor will I ever. Erotic videos make me very uncomfortable due to past issues, and I’d rather not revisit them. I also couldn’t deal with reading the section about threesomes, due to the same issues. The reason I say this because I know I’m not the only one who may have these issues.

Anyway, that being said, chapters 13 and 14 have some good information. In case you’re not well-versed in sex toy stores, Blue provides a nice list with Babeland included, of course, that you can trust. Also listed are place were you can talk classes/get information, and information on books and whatnot that were referred to.

What Bothers Me

Telling me that “this will be discussed in chapter __” or “see chapter __” makes me want to skip to that chapter and not read the the book in sequence.

Also, while Blue does mention author Mantak Chia’s, “The Multi-Orgasmic Man”, she could have also mentioned his book on “Karsai Nei Tsang: Therapeutic Massage for the Sexual Organs”. I know that book isn’t about getting a guy off, but sexual health can be arousing.

A lot of the book is geared towards male/female relationships. Yes, there is information on sucking a strap-on, but the image is of a man and a woman. I think one of the illustrations may be a man sucking off another man, but it’s difficult to tell. There is mention of straight, bi, lesbian, gay, and trans couples in the “Gender Play” section, though.

My Opinion

Despite figuring that I had a pretty good hold on things, I did learn a decent amount. There’s a lot of good information, and the flow of the book is perfect, covering pretty much everything I could think of that would be important to know or understand before attempting fellatio. You’re not going to get anywhere with oral if either of you has emotional or physical issues, and it was very interesting to learn just how my man ticks. It was also nice to see helpful information and guides instead of stereotypical hoohah and silly tips that a lots of magazines and books try to sell. Regardless of how much of a pro at fellatio you may think you are, I think this book would be helpful to all, from beginner to advanced.

It would definitely have to be a cat. I already have cat-like tendencies, and I would love to be small enough to curl up on my husband’s chest on in his lap. Plus, the twitchy kitty ears are a big plus. Stupid human ears only wiggle a bit… You know, there’s supposed to be cat ears coming out that can move and are controlled by your brain waves. I SO want a pair!

Occasionally, my lovely readers will email me their tentacle-related finds. I had found this chair sometime last year, but had somehow totally forgotten about it. Now that it’s been brought back to my attention, I can almost picture this in my future office. (Buying a house soon! Yay! Wish me lots and lots of luck! I’m going to need it, since we have to hope that the house we want will still be available next year. Darn rental agreement…)

Maximo Riera’s Octopus Chair is a fabulous work of art.  It started out as sketches, which the evolved into 3D renders. It then became CNC’d blocks which were assembled, glued, sanded, and painted by hand. By clicking the green text in this paragraph, you’ll be taken to the artist’s website where you can see this process for yourself. In the meantime, enjoy these gorgeous photos of his masterpiece:

I realized something while I was laying awake in bed last night: Although I may complain about my long labia minora, I wouldn’t be able to part with them. I’ve thought about getting a reduction before, and it seemed like something I wanted. Going through the surgery in my head last night, though, I realized I couldn’t go through with it. I get a weird feeling thinking about them disconnected from me, on a metal tray just waiting for disposal. How can I just throw away a piece of myself? How can I banish tissue that’s healthy and not causing any harm to me?

Maybe you’re wondering exactly what my reason was for wanting  the reduction. Well, my labia minora get pinched if I wear tight pants. They also dangle out of my labia majora, which I’ve never been too happy about. I think I’m growing to accept them, though.

One of the main reasons that I’ve grown to love them is their shape and color; almost the same thing that made me want to hack them off. Each one is shaped and colored much like a butterfly wing. You can see them in the bottom left of an image that I used for a review for NippleCharms. Even the tissue above them makes it look like m labia butterfly has antennae.

If you’re thinking yours are too long, look up “labia” on Google and check out what images you come up with. Long, aren’t they? Not everyone has the powder pink, tiny labia minora that the media and surgical industry would like us to believe.

This picture is taken from lvratlanta.com, showing the before and after of Labia Minora Reduction Contouring Surgery. Notice how the “after” images are dubbed “normal”. Perfect labia minora are not normal. That’s not to say that if yours look like this, you’re a freak. Labia minora come in all shapes, sizes, and colors. To deem one look to be “normal” is absurd.

And you know what? Longer labia minora are supposed to be a sign that you’re more fertile. I would assume that this would be more attractive to a prospective mate than what is dubbed “normal”, even though we’re led to believe that males prefer prim and proper pussies to “meat curtains”.

So, whatever. I’m not going to cut my butterfly’s wings off for what is thought to be “normal”. Yes, I still have to deal with the pinching, but I don’t feel that I can be heartless enough to get them cut off. I mean, what have they done to me that’s so bad for me to disown them?

Last night, I decided once and for all that I’m going to love them and hold onto them no matter what. No more thinking about surgery. Why write this post? Well, this blog is like a journal to me, and I wanted to write it out. Sometimes it’s good to look back on experiences and promises to yourself, and I mean to keep this one.

Halloween is the perfect excuse to try something new. Some of this stuff you could actually just pass off as decoration, if anyone asks…

And there’s always sexy costumes around this time of year, if you decide you want to roleplay!

I actually have the nun one in the middle. Click here to check out my review!

Though I had been offered the Tantus O2 Flurry to give away in my Pinktober Giveaway (ends 10/31/2011), I didn’t know that I was getting one to review. I had asked for the O2 Cush (click here to see the review), since I had had my eye on it for a while, along with a few other things. When my goodies from Tantus arrived, to my surprise was the O2 Flurry! It wasn’t even up on the Tantus website yet!

The O2 line from Tantus are dual density toys that are designed to have a realistically familiar feel. The SuperSoft™ outside and the hard muscle core are both made of Tantus’ own unique blend of 100% Ultra-Premium Silicone.

Basic Details

Length: 7 3/4"

Insertable length: 6 3/4"

Circumference: 4 3/4"

Diameter: 1.5"

Harness compatibility: O-ring compatible

Weight: 9.7 oz

Anal-safe: Yes

Material: Silicone

All Tantus toys are hand-made in the U.S.A. from the highest quality 100% Premium Platinum Silicone (If cared for properly, it will last a lifetime). That means they’re hypoallergenic, hygienic, phthalate-free, odorless, tasteless, boilable, bleachable, and completely nontoxic! They are also manufactured 100% green.

The O2 Flurry holds onto heat well, so pop it in bowl of warm water before play to make it feel even more realistic. Just be careful not to get the water too hot!

Texture/Firmness

The texture of the outer layer of the O2 Flurry is very smooth and soft and could be compared to the feeling of TPR, TPE, jelly, and other softer materials, but it’s pure silicone and much safer and hygienic. Right out of the packaging, it felt sort of sticky. This went away after some washing, though. Otherwise, the O2 Flurry has a matte finish.

Inside the soft and squishy layer of silicone is a very firm silicone core, which continues until the tip of the head, thus making the head feel similar to the head of a real penis. It’s also gentler than solid dildos if it happens to hit the cervix.

If you’ve had any Vixen Creations VixSkin toys, you can sort of imagine what the O2 Flurry feels like. Compared to my VixSkin Lonestar, I’d say that the core of the O2 Flurry is a little firmer and the outer layer is more squishy.

Design

The O2 Flurry is slender, compared to my O2 Cush, and is just a bit longer. Honestly, after the O2 Cush, I was thinking that the O2 Flurry was on the skinny side for me to be happy with using it vaginally, and I’d probably designate it to just anal penetration. I have to admit, I was wrong. Using the O2 Flurry vaginally reminded me that it’s not always size that matters. Yes, I like thicker toys, but it’s just what I’m used to. For the most part I prefer them to at least be my husband’s size.

Anyway, we’re starting to get off topic, so back to the O2 Flurry!

I would actually compare the O2 Flurry to my Vixen Creations Leo Dildo. Leo was nice, but the small foreskin could have been softer. That’s where the O2 Flurry shines; that generous foreskin is so soft and so much more comfortable. It juts out at the same amount as the head does, and almost makes it look as if there are two heads.

This was even better for g-spot stimulation than my O2 Cush. The soft silicone ridges around the firm core allow firm yet gentle pressure. I really don’t do much thrusting with the O2 Flurry; they’re shallow thrusts that concentrate the ridges on my g-spot, and boy does that make a mess!

It takes a little bit for me to work up to getting the O2 Flurry in anally, but the fact that it’s cushy yet solid definitely helps. Throughout the years and products I’ve tested, I know that my tush prefers cushy toys. They’re just more comfortable, in general, and definitely more comfortable if I clench. For me, the O2 Flurry does make as good an anal dildo as I thought it would. This is the first dual density toy I’ve been able to get up my butt, and I love it! The dual density makes it feel realistic, almost like a skinnier version of my husband, and that makes it absolutely perfect for me.

Although it’s designed for g-spot stimulation, this would probably be great for prostate stimulation, as well.

The base is fairly chunky, and makes it easy to hold onto. You don’t have to worry about your butt swallowing this baby. Although you could use the O2 Flurry in a harness, the chunky base may end up bothering you.

Lube

Use only water-based lube, as silicone lube can damage silicone toys. Since the surface is so smooth, thinner lubes won’t stick to it as well as thicker lubes will.

Cleaning

You can boil the O2 Flurry for 5-10 minutes, stick it in the top rack dishwasher, wipe with a 10% bleach solution and rinse, or simply wash with soap and water. Toy cleaners and wipes are also fine.

Storage

Silicone is pretty much a magnet for hair and dust, so keep the O2 Flurry somewhere safe from dust and hair, where it won’t get squished or touch other toys. You can keep it in a Ziploc bag, a toy storage unit, or wherever it will be stay safe and clean.

Packaging

The O2 Flurry that I received came in a clear plastic bag sealed with a folded Tantus label. Information about the company and silicone are provided, but there’s nothing in particular about the O2 Flurry on the packaging.

Opinion

Any dildo that can prove me wrong in a good way is A-OK in my book. I have to say the the O2 Flurry has been one of the best g-spot dildos that I’ve had. Plus, this dual density dildo does double-duty for me. (No, I did not intend to make that a tongue-twister. That’s just how it came out.) Body-safe, great design, and made by one of the manufacturers that I trust the most, the O2 Flurry will have a permanent home in my toy collection.

Some of you may be aware that today has been declared International Fisting Day. No, you didn’t miss it last year. This is actually the first year that this day has been dedicated to discussing and celebrating the sex act known as fisting. I’ve heard a lot of people just write this off as something lesbians do and bash it for being unsafe, but there’s much more to understand before you can label it.. So, let’s break everything down bit by bit.

What is Fisting?

Fisting (aka “handballing”) is a sexual activity that involves inserting a hand into the vagina or rectum. A decent amount of lube is a good idea, along with a warm-up to allow the orifice to stretch and gradually adapt to the size of the hand being inserting. Once inserted, the fingers may either clench into a fist or remain straight. The hand and/or fingers may then be manipulated within the body. Fisting may be performed with or without a partner

Techniques

• The “Silent Duck” (aka “Duck-Billing”): A technique that involves the hand of the person inserting to resemble a duck’s bill. All five fingers are kept straight and are held together as closely as possible. They are then slowly inserted into a well-lubed vagina or rectum.
• This is actually similar to the method that my husband uses with me. Instead of inserting all of his fingers at once, he gradually inserts them one-by-one. This gives my vagina time to get used to the size, and allows him to insert his hand a little past the knuckles. He’s got rather long fingers, and I’m fairly petite.
• "Double Fist/Side Prayer": A technique in which person inserting their hands places them palm to palm, in order to form prayer hands. The hands are then turned parallel to the floor with the pointing fingers towards the subject vagina or anus.
• It may be my imagination but, when I used to watch anime, I think I remember a character coming up behind people and doing this to them to freak them out. Not that this should freak you out, though. It’s fine if it does, but it’s not meant to. It’s just meant for pleasure.
• Double-Fisting: Those who are more experienced may be able to two fists in the vagina or rectum. In this case, pleasure is derived more from the stretching of the anus or vagina than from any thrusting movement of the hands.

Concerns

• Vaginal Fisting: Some people may shy away from fisting due to vaginal fisting being shown to cause death by means of air embolism. In general, sexual activities that cause air to enter the vagina can be very painful, and fatal, in some cases. Latex gloves and lots of lube would be a good idea. For preventative measures, designate a safeword to be spoken that will immediately halt the activity.
• Anal Fisting: This carries risks of colorectal perforation. Always use latex gloves and lots of lube. There is a risk of traumatization to the rectal mucosa increasing the likelihood of infection, including HBV. For preventative measures, designate a safeword to be spoken that will immediately halt the activity.

Although these concerns may be scary, don’t let them scare you out of trying fisting. Done responsibly, fisting can be safe and pleasurable. Lube will help make insertion smooth, and latex gloves will prevent the spread of bacteria, germs, and diseases, as well as prevent abrasions and scratches that could lead to infection. If you, or your partner, feel uncomfortable in any way, stop what you’re doing and assess the situation. Take time to figure out what is wrong and what can be done, and if you want to continue, try another time, or just give up on fisting.

Who Participates in Fisting?

Well, pretty much anyone can participate in fisting, and it’s not just a lesbian thing. People of all sexual orientations and preferences do it. That’s not to say that everyone does it and you’re the only one who doesn’t. I’m just saying that a wide variety of people enjoy it, not just those who are stereotyped to.

Of course, there’s also my review to check out, too!

The Nanovibe Finger Vibe is a fingertip vibrator that's made for singles and couples alike. Inside the soft, stretchy, clear TPE material is a little one-speed bullet. This little baby actually came with a Blow Job Expert Kit. Naturally, that meant I was going to use it during one.

The Basics

Material: Opulux™ (TPE as stated on InnerVibe’s website) – free of phthalates and latex, however, it is porous. It isn’t a good idea to share it or to use it for stimulating other areas after using it to stimulate the external anus. That’s right, EXTERNAL. Do not insert this thing! It’s also not designed to be used internally in the vagina either.

Texture: none

Compatible Lube: I would stick to water-based lube.

Size: 1-5/8" x 8/10"

Batteries: 3 watch batteries, included and non-replaceable

Duration: The batteries are going to last for about an hour before the vibes noticeably weaken.

Speeds: 1

Waterproof: Yes

Cleaning: Wash with soap and warm water. Dry thoroughly.

Storage: Store product in a cool, dry place. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or storage for prolonged periods of time at temperatures above 100°F. Never store your sex toys touching each other. They can react and melt each other.

To use: Take it out of the package and remove the little plastic ring in the finger loop. Although the loop stretches to the point of possible using it as a cock ring (although, I wouldn’t recommend it), you may want to lube up the ring a little just to make things easier. There’s a little power button just like on a computer. Push that to activate the vibrations.

Intensity: 2/5 The vibrations are fairly buzzy, but decently strong. Held up to my husband’s cheek, he said it felt a little like his electric razor.

Noise Level: 2/5 My husband also compared this to a slightly quieter version of his electric razor. If I move about 6 ft. away from him, he can’t hear it anymore.

Packaging: Although there’s nothing smutty about the packaging, it has a couple of things wrong with it. First of all, there’s nothing to protect the tiny bullet vibe in the Nanovibe Finger Vibe from being crushed. Second, it depicts it for use by either a female or a female and male couple, while it actually would be suitable for couples of various sexual preferences. It’s best not to limit or insult potential consumers by excluding them.

Experience

Blowjob: I’ve found out it’s best for me to have the Nanovibe Finger Vibe on my thumb while giving my husband head. With the way I circle my fingers around his penis, having the Nanovibe Finger Vibe on my thumb ensures that it’s going to glide over his frenulum. It’s a little bulgy, though, and can get in the way.

From previous experiences, we’ve found out that he doesn’t like very strong vibes. Since the Nanovibe Finger Vibe is only a 2/5, this was about the perfect intensity for him. I’ve tried using it on his perineum, but he said he didn’t really feel much.

Me: Really, the Nanovibe Finger Vibe is too weak to do anything for me. I’m used to setting my vibes on the highest setting, usually. It’s alright for nipple stimulation, but it doesn’t make the grade for me in terms of clitoral stimulation.

Since there’s no texture, it isn’t to bad for adding a little oomph to a massage.

Opinion

The Nanovibe Finger Vibe is alright, but I don’t think I’ll be replacing anything when the batteries conk out. I’ve had better, and I prefer toys that stay with me for the long haul, not for a one-night stand. Above all, it’s better for the environment. There are way too many wasted sex toys out there and not enough recycling programs.

What the Nanovibe Finger Vibe reminds me a long of is a vibrating cock ring I got from Trojan once. It’s pretty much the same intensity and noise level. Both were basically the same deal, too. Once the batteries die, there’s not much to do other than to dispose of it. You could get another bullet vibe to replace the dead one, though. Also, porous material can’t be fully sterilized, so it’s going to get funky over time.
