Another "One Size Fits 5% of the World's Population" Thong

Club Vibe 2.OH is a discreet panty vibe. Used with the included thong panty, it can be worn while out to provide stimulation to the labia and clitoris. The included discreet controller allows you to adjust the vibrations to your preferences without making it look obvious. The remote looks like it could be mistaken for something like a health monitor or key chain finder.

Neither the vibrator itself nor the remote are waterproof, so this toy cannot be taken into the shower. It is great to use anywhere else, from around the house to out dancing at a club. Since the remote is wireless and works up to 15-20 feet away, you can hold onto the remote yourself or give it to a partner to control. A built in microphone in Club Vibe 2.OH will use sounds of people or music around you to alter the vibrations to match the patterns of surrounding noise. OhMiBod also offers an app for the iPhone that allows you to use your iPhone to control Club Vibe 2.OH and save vibration settings. Information on that can be found here.

Since this toy does not offer super strong direct stimulation, and because of the body-friendly materials used to make it, I think all users will enjoy this.

Club Vibe 2.OH is made of body safe plastic. This material is phthalates free and hypoallergenic, making it a great choice for all users. The plastic has a velvety feel to it and has a matte finish. The texture is nice and smooth, though the texture may not really matter if this is used with the thong. Right out of the box, the remote and vibrator have a light plastic-like odor to them, however they have no taste. The scent fades if both pieces are left out.

The thong is made mainly out of black lace. The lace is soft against skin and doesn't feel itchy. Unfortunately, it does not offer much stretch, so the panty is not really a one-size-fits-most piece as the manufacturer claims. I will get more into the size/fit of this in the Design/Shape/Size section. The thong does feature a good, thick cotton liner that offers a good amount of coverage. The liner is very soft feeling. The quality of this thong is good. There aren't any loose threads, or frayed edges, however some of the lace has lost its elasticity after two uses. There are tiny elastic strands hanging off of it in some places.

Both the vibrator and remote in this set measure approximately 4 inches long. The two are nested against each other like an egg in the packaging, with the remote being the larger piece. The vibrator is slim with a large hump on one end for clitoral stimulation. It measures 1 3/4 inches across, which is slim enough to comfortably be worn with the included thong. The remote is thicker than the vibrator, however it is still easy to hold and control in one hand. It has a rounded cut out on the bottom where it nests against the vibrator.

For the rest of this section, I am going to describe each piece a bit more in-depth.

The vibrator features a small power button on the outside of it that will connect it to the remote if both are pressed. One end features a USB port to charge it. Fitting over this is a rubber flap that will seal out moisture. However, moisture cannot be sealed out of the cut out around the button, so this piece is not waterproof. The vibrator is very lightweight and fits against the body comfortably. You can feel it's there, but it doesn't have any sharp edges or anything cutting into skin.

The remote is a bit more complex looking than the vibrator. It features a cord with a clasp on one end that can be used to attach this to a key ring, purse, or whatever you want. On the top of the remote, there are three small buttons and five lights rounding over the top of one button. The bottom button turns the remote on and connects it with the vibrator.

The middle one powers the "volume" of the vibrator. The lights on top will light up according to your setting. The higher the setting, the more sensitive the remote is to surrounding noises. This can be tested by blowing into the three holes on the remote right over the OMB logo. Things like setting the remote down or it hitting against things will cause the vibrator to go off, so it's not just limited to noise. The bass of music will affect vibrations much more than just volume, too.

The final button, right under the rounded lights, powers the static vibration mode. There are five vibrating functions, however the remote does not light up to correspond with your selection.

Finally, there's the thong. This piece is supposed to be one-size-fits-most, however it is not. Right out of the box, it measures pretty well against some size 6 (medium) underwear. Unfortunately, after I washed it, it shrank down so that it measures perfectly against size 5 (small) underwear. Unstretched, it measures 26 inches around the top band. Stretched to it's max, it measures 38 inches around. This is honestly not very much of a variety to fit most users. Users who normally wear a small or are on the smaller side of medium should be able to fit into the panty, though it depends mainly on hips. I personally wear size small and measure about 35 inches around where the top band sits and found the lace rolled around itself and was tight enough to not be too comfortable. If you measure more than 37 inches around where your top band of your underwear sits, these are not going to fit.

This isn't one of those super cheap thongs that has just a thin piece of material running along the back with a tiny triangle of fabric in the front. The bands measure 2 inches wide and the bottom of the thong measures 2 1/2 inches at its smallest, which is where the liner ends. The front offers almost as much coverage as a bikini cut panty.

This thong can be worn without the vibrator. It does have the cotton liner sewn into panels so that the vibrator does not wiggle around when worn, which is nice. The vibrator fits nicely into the pocket in the liner and can be a bit difficult to slide back out.

The controls of this set can be a bit tricky at first, especially if you're like me and one of those people who never read the instructions first. The vibrator should be plugged into your computer through the included USB cord before use so it can fully charge. It can hold enough charge to last for about 4 hours. Once it's charged and you're ready to use it, you need to connect it to the remote.

Connecting the two pieces is simple. Press the power button (circle with a line through it) on each piece. The vibrator will flash light constantly, however the remote will just flash a light on for a second. Once the remote is used to control the vibrator, it will stop flashing light. The connection process is the same as connecting a wireless remote to an xbox 360.

Once it's connected, press either the top button to select from the pre-programmed vibrating functions or press the middle button to choose the ambient Club setting. Pressing the power button will reset your selection.

To power Club Vibe 2.OH off, simply hold the button on the vibrator for about 5 seconds. As you're holding it, the light will remain on, then it will click off when it's turned off. I can see this through my thumb when I'm turning it off. The remote doesn't seem to go off, it just goes into a kind of "sleep" mode. Pressing any button will light up the remote, however it will not control the vibrator if that has been turned off.

Club Vibe 2.OH includes five pre-programmed functions, which are:

- Constant low vibrations
- Constant medium vibrations
- Constant high vibrations
- Quick medium pulses
- Long high pulses

I like all of the settings. None of them are super powerful, though they do seem to be about average with all of the vibrators I have tried. They are strong enough to provide stimulation, though since that stimulation is not direct, it may not send all users over the edge.

The controls are easy to use. I wish it lit up to match your pre-programmed setting so you could see where you are on those. I like the ambient setting, since it can be caused to vibrate by blowing on it, talking, or clanking it against things if you aren't in a club. It could probably be set in front of a speaker while a porn is running or if music is on if that suits you.

This toy is pretty quiet. It doesn't rattle around like some toys, which helps it a lot. As you increase the vibrations, the sound will not increase. Someone standing next to you in a quiet room will hear it, however someone standing near you in a club or something will not. Covers can definitely mute the amount of noise it makes.

Unlike the vibrator, the remote is powered by a 23A 12 volt battery. Mine hasn't died yet after maybe 2 hours total of playing around with it. While this is not a super common battery like AA or AAA, it should be easy enough to find in retail stores. It looks like a stubbier AAA battery. I know our garage door openers run off of this kind of battery, too.

Caring for this toy can be pretty simple. You don't want to completely submerge it in water since it is not water proof. It can be wiped down with a wipe or you can use your favorite toy cleaner on it. I spray it with some toy cleaner and wipe it off.

The panty is pretty sturdy, so it should be okay to throw in the washing machine. There aren't any included instructions for it. Mine has gone through the wash a few times and has come out okay. We have a front load washer, which may be more gentle on it than top loading washers, so you may want to use the gentle cycle if you have a top loading washer. It can either be put in the dryer or hung out to dry. I prefer to throw it in the dryer so I don't have underwear hanging up all over the place for my parents to see.

Since this toy is made of hard plastic, you can use any kind of lube you want. However, since you'll have a layer of cotton panty liner between you and the vibrator if you choose to use the panty, you'll probably not wan to use any lube.

I store my Club Vibe 2.OH kit, minus the thong, in the original box. The box comes with a small pouch that can be used to store either the vibrator and remote or the thong. I prefer keeping the thong with my other underwear.

This kit comes packaged in a small cardboard box. The top shows a girl wearing I'm guessing some sort of club wear dress. The top of the box is very snug against the bottom, so it's a bit difficult to slide out. I end up having to hold onto the top and shake the whole thing just to get a little give with the bottom.

Inside you'll find:

- Manual (in several languages)
- Vibrator and remote
- USB cord to charge the vibrator
- Black thong panty rolled up in a small draw-string bag

All of this is situated in a plastic tray. I like how sturdy the box is and the fact that it has a foam liner on the top to keep your new toy safe, however I do not care for the fact that it isn't great for discreetly holding your toy. I would prefer a discreet box over one that shows this girl on it and the vibrator on one side. The box can be recycled.

I really do like this toy. I'm not a fan of direct stimulation through vibrations. Sometimes direct stimulation can either hurt a bit or will just feel too tickly to feel good. With a layer of panty between me and the vibrator, I get some stimulation without getting too much. The small hump on the front of the vibrator fits against me comfortably without bumping me or feeling weird against me. This is also rechargeable, which is definitely much more wallet-friendly.

Unfortunately, I don't like the thong very much. I have never been a thong wearer. I only wore it for this so that I could see what this toy is like. If OhMiBod offered boy shorts or a bikini bottom, I would have much preferred that. The whole "one size fits most" deal is also crappy, since this feels tight on me and I'm wearing size small underwear. I'd love it if OhMiBod would offer a selection of panties in different sizes, shapes, and colors. I'm wondering what will happen when these wear out, since it doesn't seem to work very well to use the vibrator with normal underwear. Normal underwear will let the vibrator slide around too much.

I haven't used this in an environment where the Club mode will come in handy, since I am not interested in wearing a vibrator out. I also have absolutely no experience with the iPhone app, since I do not have an iPhone. I do like putting this on and handing my fiance the remote when we are at home.
