High intensity bullet - bullet discontinued by Cal Exotics - review by aliceinthehole

This powerful purse vibe packs a punch. For ladies on-the-go and those looking for something discreet and unassuming, the High Intensity Bullet by Cal Exotics is it.

Your clitoris will thank you after a round of intense vibrations from this ergonomically-shaped bullet. With three speeds of surprisingly powerful vibes and waterproof stealth, this toy is my new weapon of choice.

The hard plastic casing is silky smooth and will lube up quick. The shiny surface will be slick with a touch of your own natural lubrication, or your favorite water-based or silicone lubricants.

The plastic has no taste or smell and is perfectly body-safe. A touch of texture on this toy would be nice, as the clit has a tendency to numb with these kind of vibes. A bit of texture breaks up the monotony and sparks life back into the bundle of nerves. Alas, nothing's perfect. And I'm not complaining.

So little!

This user-friendly, compact bullet could not be more simplistically perfect. From beginners to vets, there's something to love for everyone. At just under 3.5" x .75" wide, this palm-sized bullet slips easily into your purse undetected. You can even play with it while at the office! Trust me. I tried.

The tapered tip provides pinpoint clitoral stimulation, leading the vibrations where you need them most. The slimline bullet shape fits just in the palm, and allows for easy access to the control button with little interruption of playtime.

A rubber o-ring at the base provides waterproof protection when the cap's closed tight. So you can take this bad boy in the shower, the jacuzzi or the sea with you.

The single, included 1.5V 'N' battery will be difficult to find, but not impossible. It packs much more punch than any old AAA battery would, anyday.

One drawback about the small size is that the fingers can quickly go numb from holding it too long. The buzzy vibes travel into your bones and *POOF. Pins and needles. It's jolting and quite honestly a bit obnoxious. But common in small, powerful vibes. To rid the bullet of this, you'd have to sacrifice its stealthy size. Did i mention that nothing is perfect?

Perfect palm-pal.

Here is something that saddens me. So the first impression I had was toying around with this and accidentally clicking the on button. The vibes it put out originated in the tip, just where they're needed. Direct delivery to the clit! The vibrations were buzzy but not too high. A barely audible hum radiated from the toy. Still, I was thinking, 'Four vrooms, really? This was rated 4 vrooms, and what I'm feeling here is barely a 3.'

Then I happened to push the button again, thinking this would turn the device off. To my delight, the buzzy vibes kicked up a notch. More power! 3.5 vrooms were had.

One more press of the soft rubber button and the third level of vibes was achieved. Yes! There it was. 4 full vrooms in one tiny-ass bullet. Not to mention nearly whisper-quiet action. With a heater on in the room, nobody'd hear you playing with this, not even ten feet away. And I never thought it possible! The power of 'N' batteries.

But while cycling through the settings, I noticed that at times the vibe would simply shut off when moving from the first to second setting, or second to third. I didn't think much of it, until I noticed it would not shut off. At all. No matter how many times or directions or pens I poked into the button hole, it wouldn't shut off. Unscrewing the cap and disconnecting the battery was all that would stop this bullet. And then I cried.

At this price and size, a more solid construction would not have killed anyone. The small computer chip viewed in the basecap is obviously needing an update. This one has a fluke. I think I'll send this lemon back.

In the water, however, this vibe is hot. If you can get the settings to perform as you wish. Have no qualms about taking this into the shower for some steamy sexy 'you' time. As long as your High Intensity Bullet isn't a lemon.

Plastic can be cleaned up with antibacterial soap or wipes. Dry with a paper towel, and store loose with your other toys if you wish, or in a small box or plastic bag of its own. Be sure to twist the cap tightly closed before bringing it near any sort of liquid.

Plastic is super lube-friendly so any lubricant will play nicely with this bullet.

I recommend taking the battery out to avoid corrosion, or at least turning it around backwards, or very loosely screwing the cap on so that the battery is not connected and doesn't trickle out. An occasional swipe of the battery contacts with a pencil eraser should keep the connection strong.

The usual Cal Exotics' minimal, plastic-bubble packaging is used here. The typical warnings about use of this toy 'as a novelty product only' decorate the package. All we find here in the way of instructions to wash the bullet before and after use (though they don't say what to use to clean it), remove the battery when not in use, and use water-based lube (though silicone and plastic work fine together). And according to this, you can actually register your new product at vibetronics.com. Though the motives behind that are still unclear to me.

There are no instructions whatsoever, and I wouldn't really use the package for storing this, as it's bulky and impractical. Still, the packaging is all recyclable, and as this bullet is a pretty self-explanatory toy, I'm not complaining.

I usually use this gold egg vibe by Cal Exotics during masturbation and sex.

If the High Intensity Bullet worked it would be a perfect alternative to my bulkier egg vibe with attached control pack. The round egg gets between my lover and me when in missionary position, and the cord can get tangled in the bed. The dial also can move to different speeds on its own, with all the rolling around we do. This slimline design cuts out all the crap and gives you just what you need, where you need it. And without getting in the way.

As it is, the bullet's stuck on the weakest setting. I have to screw the cap to turn it off and on. The least it could've done would've been to die on the highest setting. Do a girl some favors as you croak, at least. Sheesh.

I'll send this back and get something more reliable. You kind of get what you pay for sometimes.
