Hey folks, I have some time on my hands and figured it was time for some more testing. I have been thinking about showing how strong silicone is, some ideas I have are a flame test (With a welding torch) and a stretch test.

I thought maybe folks could give me a few ideas on other things to test out. So give me your request and I'll see what I can do. Who knows, I may even turn it into a work shop.

I'd love to see a stretch test. I'm always worried I might tear the clit stimulator of my silicone rabbit off, when I bend it backwards too much while I'm washing it.

Cool, I thought I might see how much weight a silicone cock ring would lift, maybe see if it would pull my four wheeler or even my truck.

I don't have any ideas off the top of my head, but I can't wait to see this.

Crush test, maybe? Like, how much weight can safely be piled on top of a silicone toy before the poor thing suffers any damage?

Ohhh good idea. I could drop some steel on it a few time or maybe run it over with the truck.

The idea of a truck running over a sex toy amuses me way more than it should.

Fabric tests!!!! Like if you lay silicone on a piece of fuzzy fabric versus something smooth and if the silicone picks up any discoloration like jelly toys do.

I like the idea of pulling trucks with cock rings. Test silicone rings against steel or titanium rings. It could be the new event for our County Fair!!!!

I wouldn't use a blow torch on anything, though. Even medical silicone and 100% silicone may melt with a lighter as they are hotter than matches. From what I know flame tests should only be done (not fun ones, but for reviews) with a regular match. I, personally, don't do flame tests, as I love my silicone toys.

I'd love to see how many charges chargeable toys will take before they finally don't charge anymore. But, that would be an "over time" and expensive test. Plus, you don't get to set anything on fire.

I was thinking about that last night, might be better to show how silicone holds up to heat verses other materials like TPR. Good silicone will take temps upwards of 500 deg., like baking pan liners.

As far as rechargeable goes, it would all depend on how often you charge, what kind of batteries and the type of charger (Does it turn off automatically etc. )

If you do stretch, compare it some something like TPR?

Good thought, I even have a spare ring I could use for that.

I would like to see a compression test... smoosh something in your vise overnight, watch it pop back into shape?

I totally agree that I'd like to see a dildo get run over with a truck! I don't know what that would show about the material, but it sounds fun! I totally think that a strength test of the silicone rings is a great idea, too.

Just the abuse that silicone can take, I would have to also run over a TPR or UR3 dildo to compare it too.

Hey folks, just wanted to let y'all know that I will be taking a road trip Monday so I will have to push this back a little. No worries though, I will put this all together when I get back.

So far I think I will do a; Stretch test of a silicone cock ring, Heat test, Truck test where I run it over a few times with my full size truck, Drop test-I have a 75 pound piece of steel I will drop on a dildo, Also I will leave the steel on it overnight. Where I can I will compare with other materials such as TRP and UR3.

Any other ideas you may have? Post them here.

When you read it it's hilarious. It's like the cartoon character who won't die.

WILL IT BLEND?

I'm curious whether it would get powdery or goopy. Perhaps not the most useful test though.

Hahaha! I would guess it would become like the recycled rubber running tracks. But smaller.

But I am super curious about how UR3 would BLEND.

We may need to bring this to BlendTec.
