Basics for Vibrator
The first and the foremost point of differentiation
is Battery power Vs Electric Power
- The difference between the performances can be
significant.
- Normally the electric vibrators last must longer
than those run on battery and are more powerful
as well as multi purpose.
- Battery operated ones are more fun to experiment
with and are generally considered portable since
they provide the freedom from wires and are therefore
more convenient.
Electric Vibrators
The benefits include the following
- Extended warranties for up to a year from almost
all manufacturers
- They also have low level sound setting therefore
its great for those who are worried about the noise
levels
- They have a solid a solid construction and are
reliable
The downsides to the effect is that while its ok
to use them wherever there is a wall socket, they
are not as easily portable and therefore, can’t
be used at outdoor locations where there is no AC
power connection. In these cases its best to use
a battery operated vibrator.
Battery operated
In use since 1930s because of there convenience
and price affordability. These can be used almost
anywhere. They come in all shapes, sizes and colors
and the waterproof ones can easily be used in bathtubs,
showers, and pools or in any body of water. They
are as simple as ‘carry & use’.
Popular battery operated ones are
Cosmic Invader
Dazzle
I-Vibe
Pocket rocket
Impulse Jack Rabbit
Jack Rabbit
Micro Pleasure Egg
Seductive Pleasure
Materials used
A wide variety is available as far as the materials
are concerned. In fact there is something for everyone
to choose from and to suit every preference and
budgets. They all certain advantages and disadvantages.
Therefore, its wise to know your preferences as
well as the advantages and disadvantages of the
materials that you are looking for.
- Plastic
Since its hard and non-flexible, it offers the
best vibrations. They come in all shapes and sizes
and are the most traditional material that is used
in the manufacture of vibrators. They are durable
and are relatively inexpensive. The most common
ones are the “slimline” and the “egg”
variety. The popular ones are the
Cascading Climaxer,
Pocket Rocket,
Torpedo, etc.
- Jelly
The advantage of jelly over other materials is
that its very soft and a very flexible material.
Therefore, its very easy to mould it in a variety
of shapes, sizes and colors. Therefore, there are
many beautiful ones to choose from. To the user
it gives a feeling of a soft, smooth and supple
feeling. The popular ones are Cosmic Invader, Dolphin
Erection arouser, I-Vibe, Jelly Gumdrop, Little
bunny, Micro butterfly, Rabbit pearl etc.
- Latex
It is soft and yet firm therefore, somewhere between
plastic and Cyberskin. They also give the look of
the real thing and therefore come in a variety of
skin like tome colors. Therefore, they can be a
good choice and are often the material, which are
used for “vibrating dildo” variety.
However, if you or your partner has an allergic
reaction to latex based products then its best to
do away with them and consider other materials.
The popular ones are Emperor 8”, Flesh, Mulatto
- Glass
Yes! Glass is a very good option. In fact Pyrex
is a very strong form of glass and is damage resistant.
They are usually made in two parts. The outer part
or shell is made of glass while the inside is a
standard vibrator, which has other parts as well.
They are usually more beautiful, more expensive
and last for a longer time. They are also very easy
to clean and can also be sterilized in boiling water.
This makes it easier to use between users. The popular
ones are Liquid wave Glass, Mini Chrome Glass, Ann
Marie Signature Mini Vibe.
- Cyberskin
This is one of the technologically advanced and
the newest materials off the block and falls in
the ultra realistic categories. It is the most life
like material (well almost) to be available in the
market. Since it can take in the heat of the skin,
it feels warm, supple and the experience can be
quite different as opposed to other materials like
plastic and glass. The major disadvantage is that
they have special cleaning requirements like their
own cleaning solution etc. no harsh chemicals or
soap can be used to clean the same. The popular
ones are Vibrating Cyber Cock & Virtual Lover
Kit.
Cleaning & care for the vibrator
Its best to lean the toys right after use, however
it may not be possible at all times to do the same.
However, its advisable to clean them as quickly
as possible to rule out germs and infections from
been transmitted. All materials come with their
specific cleaning instructions and should be followed
as strictly as possible. This helps them to keep
in good running condition and will also last a longer
duration.
The following should be kept in mind while, cleaning
for all types of material
- Plastic – soap, water, rubbing alcohol,
sex toy cleaner
- Jelly – mild soap, water, sex toy cleaner
- Latex - mild soap, water, sex toy cleaner
- Cyberskin - mild soap, water, sex toy cleaner,
Cyberskin cleansing solution
Vibrator Volume
Noise levels are also a matter of consideration.
There are some, which are very quiet, and then there
are some, which have a very high noise level. However,
most standard models are adjustable and the more
you turn up the vibration, the louder it gets. In
general the ones powered by battery tend to have
a higher level of noise generation than those, which
are electrically operated. However, these vary from
size to size and are different for every brand.
There are also vibrators which have extremely low
noise production and its all a matter of choice.
Here are some of them by the level of their noise
levels
Very Quiet – Amethyst Shimmer, Cosmic Invader,
Dazzle, I – Vibe, Micro Pleasure Egg, Remote
Butterfly, Torpedo etc.
Medium Range – Crystal Clear Power Vibe,
Hitachi Magic Wand, Pocket Rocket, Seductive Pleasure,
Sensual Caress
Types of Lubrication
Before you choose the vibrator, its important to
also know the type of lubrication that would work
best with each type of sex toy. Usually water based
lubricants work best with all types of sex toys.
They don’t cause damage to any of the above-mentioned
materials and work extremely well in all conditions.
The following is a list of the lubrications and
the sex toys that they work best with.
? Water based
They are the easiest ones available, work with
almost all materials and are non-staining on sheets
and clothes also. They contain mostly water and
quite pleasant tasting also. Available in both flavored
and non-flavored varieties, these are long lasting
and are easy to clean.
? Silicone based
They are safe to use with all kinds of sex toys,
however for silicone based sex toys, other types
of lubrication must be used. They are a higher gradation
of water-based lubrication but don’t contain
water and are therefore completely waterproof. Therefore,
they don’t dry out and are longer lasting.
? Oil based
These lubricants are oil based and commonly contain
vegetable oils only. Therefore, they are not fit
for sex toys. However, they are recommended for
masturbation and are also okay for consumption.
But they do tend to stain clothing and are known
to cause infection, if they stay in vagina. They
are also not compatible with latex based products.
? Petroleum based
As the name implies, they contain primarily petroleum
products only. Commonly they can be used for masturbation
and anal play. However, they tend to cause stains
in clothing and on sheets. Another caveat is that
they can’t be used with latex as petroleum
dissolves latex. Its also very difficult to get
rid of this product from the body parts. The popular
choices remain Vaseline, Baby Oil and K Y Jelly.
Types of Vibrators
Traditional
This is the first thing that comes to mind when
people think of vibrators. These are slim, straight,
between four and eight inches in length and are
normally made of plastic. They come in a variety
of shapes and sizes and allow the user to have full
control over the vibrating effect. Its good for
those people who would prefer stronger vibrations
but don’t prefer o have an electric vibrator.
Since the plastic transfers the vibrations directly
to the user from the motor, it’s a very reliable
way of achieving sexual pleasure.
The popular ones are Pink Dot Vibe, Temptress Tiger,
Violet Fantasy, White Orchid, Dome Tip Satisfier,
Hide-a-Vibe, Translucent Waterproof Vibrators, Temptress
Leopard.
G-Spot
They are normally shaped like the traditional ones
except that they are curved at the tip to allow
contact with the G-Spot. They are typically between
4-8” long and have a base mounted controller.
These are best made of jelly or plastic. Since you
would not want them to bend. To achieve orgasm,
one has to apply slight pressure and these don’t
bend under pressure. Attachments such as sleeves
are also available. These vibrators are very popular
and provide great stimulation. Our store has specially
hand selected ones, which heighten G-spot stimulation
thereby helping you to achieve the orgasm that you
are looking for.
The popular ones are Amethyst Shimmer, Celestial
G, Cosmic Invader, Dazzle, G Spot Water Stimulator,
Opulent G etc.
Clitoral Vibrators
Many women reach or prefer to reach an orgasm when
they have clitoral stimulation. Therefore, these
vibrators are designed in such a way as to give
the full clitoral stimulation and can be as satisfying
as manual stimulation. They are quite safe and can
make the women reach the orgasm as they want to.
These powerful clitoral vibrators are designed
in such a way as to provide the women with stimulation.
The idea is to sit back and relax and enjoy the
vibrations. There are two types of vibrators available.
The first one is non-insert able one and provides
stimulation from inside. The second one has an attachment,
which reaches the clitoris when inserted inside
the vagina. Both have their pleasure points and
neither is better than the other one. Both provide
pleasure, which can’t be had otherwise during
manual stimulation.
