CalExotics Pocket Exotics Impulse Slim Silver Bullet Review

Personal Experience

Bullet vibrators, clitoral stimulation vibrators, have always been a staple to my collection.  At any one time, I have at least 3 different models in the toy drawer. The problem has always been finding a product that fits my body, mobility needs, has the variety, and most importantly- a life span.

Tried and True…

Things to Consider…

Design

The design is simple and straight forward. This isn’t going to be the nicest, the prettiest, or the softest toy in your collection, but it gets the job done. The plastic control box is attached to the bullet with a cord which helps keep track of the bullet, but can also get tangled up between bodies. The buttons are easy to find by touch. My favorite part though, is how the slim bullet design fits comfortably in the hand for external vulval play both independent or with a partner. The bullet fits snuggly against the clit to provide direct stimulation and can be used alongside other toys such as dildos and vibrators. Unfortunately, the bullet will not stay against the clit during PIV (penis in vagina) sex, it can be held in place which I find it to be more frustrating than helpful at that point.

Ease of Use

Every aspect of this toy is straightforward, it is simple and easy to use. The slot for the batteries is easily accessible with clear markings on the placement of the AA batteries. There are only 2 buttons which allow you to cycle forward and backwards through the 5 vibration setting. A green (low) and red (high) light matches the vibration rhythm so it is easy to identify the pattern if you aren’t the direct recipient. It provides a nice variety of stimulation thanks to 5 different vibration patterns: low, high, and 3 different pattern settings that use both high and low vibrations in pleasing, repeating sequences. One limitation to this product is adaptability for those with limited mobility. The control can get easily lost amongst items making it harder to track down to change the setting. It can also feel a bit uncomfortable being held in the hand for any extended amount of time due to the texture of the plastic grip for the battery housing.

Quality

While this toy is not top tier quality, and it will die eventually, it is significantly better quality than the low end models which die within a couple of uses. The Pocket Exotic is one of the longer lasting bullets I have tried, which is why I keep coming back to this bullet. You will need AA batteries to use this one, but the batteries tend to last for a few months (depending on frequency of use), though be warned: the batteries always seem to die at the worst time, so it is helpful to keep some spare batteries nearby, just in case.

Price

For my needs, this bullet is the perfect price point. It is a better quality than the cheapest bullets out there, and it won’t break the budget. Between the affordability and the quality of this vibrator, it is one I continue to buy. It is reliable and affordable.

Performance

If you are a fan of the bullet with a “speed dial” control that allows you to fine tune the intensity of the vibration, this isn’t the bullet for you. However, having the 5-function option is really nice when you need more variation in intensity and pattern. This bullet is a bit on the noisy side, especially if you accidentally turn it on while still on the nightstand. While actually in use, the noise is much quieter, though you might not be. Battery life is good for this type of product.

Packaging

The packaging is easy to open but is not discrete at all. Packaging is not suitable for long term storage if regularly used.

Materials and care

The ABS bullet is connected to a durable clear plastic controller with easy-to-use buttons. Clean the bullet before and after use by washing with warm water and mild soap and disinfect with a quality toy cleaning product. This product is not waterproof or water resistant and should not be submerged in water. It is recommended to remove the batteries between usage.
