10x power bullets slim - bullet discontinued by Doc Johnson - review by mpfm

10x Power Bullets Slim is a gorgeous green bullet style vibrator. This petite system is for external stimulation. Most woman would primarily use it on their clits, but it can be used anywhere on the body. The bullets are small, but pack a nice punch. Enjoy them on clitoris, nipples, back, belly, neck, feet, legs or wherever you like. Men may enjoy them on the shaft, balls, perineum, or any other external area.

They are too small to be effective vaginally. They should never be used anally. They are attached to a cord, but there is too much danger of the cord breaking and the bullets being "lost" in the butt. Keep it external only to be safe.

Using them in the shower or bath is fine since it is waterproof.

The bullets are great when used solo, during foreplay with a partner or during intercourse. Men may enjoy using them during hand jobs or blow jobs.

Power Bullets are made from plastic. Plastic rates an 8/10 on the Eden safety scale. I like plastic because it is easy to use and easy to clean. The toy is are nonporous and phthalate free. Both the control and the bullets are smooth and firm. There is a seam running horizontally through the bullets, but it doesn't effect performance. There is no discernible odor or taste.

The plastic is compatible with any type of lube if desired. Lube does make the bullets a bit slippery, and we found using them with no lube was effective.

I love the visual design of this toy. Green is my favorite color, and it's sometimes difficult to find green sex toys. This is labeled as a mint green, but to me it's a cross between mint green and a greenish teal. With the masses of pink and purple toys out there, this is a nice change. For those who love pink, you'll be happy to know pink is also available.

As the name implies, this is a slim bullet design. The bullets themselves are very small. They are 1.25 inches long and about 1.5 inches around. That's mighty small. Here is a comparison pick with Ef Multispeed vibrating bullet and L'Amour Petal. (Sorry about the pic quality, but you can see the general idea.)





As you can see the other two dwarf the 10X power bullet slim. This means it's nice for small areas, but you can't cover a broad area all at once.

The control is easy to hold. It is also small at 3 inches long and 1 inches wide. The control panel is a simple silver oval at the top. Below that is the Doc Johnson logo.

The back has several ridges at the top that provide a nice place for fingers. The front also has a sloping valley that is comfortable for the thumb. It's comfortable to hold and use. It's smooth, but the ridges give it a bit of nice traction so it won't slip out of your hands easily. Here's a side view of the ridges.





The control and bullets are permanently connected by light green wire. It's actually two wires as each bullet has it's own. They seem to be securely attached. I don't anticipate having trouble with the wires coming loose. The wire is about 27 inches long. That's long enough to use for most positions during intercourse.

It's obviously a bullet sex toy, so not discreet. Pretty, but not discreet. It is small enough to travel easily. Just tie up the wire and it won't take up too much space. As with all sex toys it's good to remove the batteries before traveling. You don't want it accidentally turning on and using up all your batteries.

The bullets are very easy to use. The control panel has an on/off button and above that a button labeled "10." Simply turn it on and push the "10" button to get to your desired setting. "10" of course refers to the 10 settings available. The settings are...
1. Low Steady vibration
2. Medium Steady vibration
3. High steady vibration
4. Low to High escalation
5. Med Pulse
6. Fast pulse
7. Low to High escalation & 3 pulses
8. Medium pulse-fast pulse-slow pulse
9. High steady followed by low steady
10.Low intensity- med intensity-high intensity pulses

With so much variety everyone should be able to find a favorite. I would rate the highest intensity level as a 3 on a 5 point scale. The vibrations are more buzzy than rumbly, but not excessively buzzy. I can hold them in my hands for a good while without my hands going numb. It's also fairly quiet. It can be heard in the room, but not outside a closed door. I take that back. If the bullets are allowed to touch each other, they do generate a loud clinky noise that might be noticeable behind a closed door. When they are apart, they remain quieter.

The toy runs of 2 AAA batteries. The screw cap is located on the bottom of the control. Proper battery placement is clearly marked. It has a plastic seal making it waterproof. As long as the cap is screwed on tight, it'll be fine in water.

Because the bullets are small, they do not cover a wide area. Because of this, I think they are best suited for clitoral stimulation. If you need a broader and more indirect stimulation this probably won't work for you. I didn't particularly like this bullet. As cute as it is, it's just too small to give me the stimulation I need. Those who like direct clitoral stimulation may like it. It's small size seems to be perfect for that. I just happen to like indirect and very broad stimulation. It really wasn't great anywhere on my body.

All is not lost because my husband LOVES these bullets. He is always stealing my vibes to use on his balls and shaft during hand jobs and blow jobs. This is the best bullet he's ever used. The bullets are just perfect for tucking behind each ball during oral sex or a hand job. The dual bullets make that especially nice. He loves lots of pulsating varieties and this has lots to choose from. For him, the performance was perfect. In addition to his balls, he also liked it on his shaft, armpit, and feet. The vibe on the armpit was a new one for us, but he said it was very pleasant. It was not very effective on his perineum. I am guessing its due to the small bullet size. He does like larger bullets on his perineum.

10x Power Bullets Slim is easy to care for. Since it is plastic it can be washed with soap and water or a toy wipe. A 10% bleach solution can also be used. It can be completely disinfected if you wish to share the toy with others. Since it is waterproof, you don't have to be extra careful when washing. As long as the cap is screwed on tight, you don't have to worry about getting water in the battery compartment. That's my favorite part about waterproof toys. I can just run them under the faucet without any worries.

You can store them in a drawer or wherever you store your toys. It's best to wrap up the cord so it doesn't get tangled up in other stuff.

The first time we played with this, my husband and I laid side by side, and each tried one bullet. One of us was going, "Ummm, that's nice, ahhh, Ohh I like this." The other was going, "Did you feed the cat yet?" You can probably guess who is who if you read the entire review.

The bullet has happily migrated to my husband's fun drawer. Actually migrated isn't the right word. Migration implies it's coming back. This was a permanent move to his side of the bed. Don't feel sorry for me though. My drawer has more toys than his.
