Vibro penis ring - cock ring discontinued by Orion - review by ~LaUr3n~

The very first sex shop I ever stepped into was in Frankfurt, Germany. This place was HUGE! It had three stories and was basically a mall of sorts. I knew I couldn't come out of there empty handed, but was fairly inexperienced with toys at the time and was looking for something simple and un-intimidating to use with my boyfriend at the time. We had used cheap one-time use vibrating rings before and so I looked for a better investment-a reusable one. Then I saw this.

Vibrating rings are a great addition to sex. They are simple, can be cheap, and easy to use. They make a big difference though! This vibrating ring by Orion, is a great choice for a reusable one and it won't rob your bank when buying it. The vibrating bullet will provide stimulation to the clitoris or balls as well as the shaft of the penis or dong. The cock ring will also make the guy last longer and stay harder.

This cock ring is made of TPE, thermoplastic. This material has very little smell or taste and is really strong. It has the ability to stretch and not break even when stressed. TPE is a better material than common types like rubber, cyberskin, or jelly, but isn't as safe as silicone. It is slightly porous so sharing is not a good idea. It is also phthalates and latex free, and hypo-allergenic. It isn't particularly sticky and feels smooth to the touch.

The cock ring is a good size in thickness and circumference. The max stretched diameter is 2.25" which calculates to be a little over 7" in circumference. It will be more effective as a cock ring if you are girthy. This will accommodate the thicker guys and does so comfortably. It is easy to take on and off and we had no problem with it catching hair. The vibrating bullet rests nicely against my clitoris when I am on top during sex. The bullets casing has raised nubs that I did not find to add a noticeable amount of extra stimulation.

The bullet has a simple to use push button on and off. The button is located on the side of the bullet. It is also removable if you prefer to use a different bullet. The sleeve is stretchy so it will accommodate many other bullets of similar design. The vibrations are very intense. They brought me to clitoral orgasms which helped me achieve simultaneous g-spot and clitoral orgasms during sex. The vibrations can also be felt throughout the shaft. The little ribbing on the inside of the ring, prevents this from shifting around during sex.

The bullet isn't terribly loud which is good because it isn't distracting. The vibrations are so intense that if you take the bullet out and hold it in your hand, it will spin in circles! The batteries last a long time, I have not had to replace them as of yet and I have used this on a handful of occasions, each lasting at least 20 minutes.

If the batteries were to die, it is easy to screw off the end and take out the batteries, to replace them with the ones provided with. Mine came with 4 inside and 4 spares. But mine works with 3 lol.

The ring can be used to stimulate the guy as well. Just turn it around and place the vibrating portion down so that it rests on the balls. The vibrations will still be felt through his shaft. It can also be put on dongs to make them into vibrators! As a cock ring, this isn't the best because it is so accommodating but it did make a noticeable difference and my boyfriend liked the feeling of being even harder.

TPE is easy to take care of. It doesn't collect a lot of hair or dust so a simple wash is good. This cannot be sanitized so use warm water and soap to clean. Be sure to remove the bullet first though. Then set out to dry. I would store it in the small plastic package it comes in. This keeps it with the batteries. Also, make sure to place them BEHIND a condom during use, not on top because the added friction can cause the condom to tear. Use water based or silicone lubricant.

The package says 100% silicone (silikon), but it is not.

Also, when I went to use this again, I could not get it to work. I replaced all the batteries and looked at the connects for corrosion, or which I saw none. I still could not get it to work again. It had been finicky a few times and would be a bit touchy, but it stopped working all together eventually. I was really bummed since I bought it in Germany. It lasted about 2 years, through a handful or two of uses.
