An Epiphany

Design

The insertable rod has a nice appearance and lovely texture. The addition of a loop on top make it easy to handle and ensures it isn't going to suddenly disappear inside you. Its finish is smooth, with no nasty sharp edges. It really did seem like a quality item. The conductive strap is a standard kind of thing, fitted to a sprung toggle to allow you to adjust it for a snug fit. One thing worthy of note, ensure you use plenty of conductive gel with the strap, otherwise you are likely to experience uncomfortable hotspots and potentially damage to the skin. The control box, as previously mentioned, is the low point of the set. It was unresponsive and woefully underpowered. This might not be a concern if you are a total electro stimulation virgin, but anyone with a bit of experience is likely to be left feeling disappointed.

Ease of Use

The product is simple enough to use. The conductive strap fits around the shaft easily enough, thanks to the spring loaded toggle allowing you to adjust the tightness. The insertable rod was also really easy to use and handle, thanks to the sensible sizing of the rod and the loop at the top of it, letting you have a good grip when necessary, although you can also just let go of it, knowing that the rod can't disappear inside. Unfortunately, the control box was not so easy to use, thanks to having rather unresponsive buttons that often required several attempts to make them work. This could be an issue if, for some reason, you needed to turn it off quickly, as the power button took multiple attempts to make it function. The supplied cable was very easy to use. It doesn't seem to have the usual sized terminals on it, meaning it is likely to be of use only with this toy, or others from similar brands. It has a snap connector for the rod and a push-in connection for the rubber strap, sliding inside the hollow profile of the rubber strap.

Quality

It doesn't seem fair to give a quality rating as a whole package, as some elements seemed really good, whilst some less so. The insertable rod was, I felt, of good quality. Its dimensions were good, the texture was great, the finish was smooth, and the handle felt secure. This, for me, is the star of the set. The conductive strap was also of decent enough quality. To be fair, it's hard to go far wrong with a piece of conductive rubber tubing. Then we come to the cable that is use to connect everything. Whilst perfectly functional, I wonder how long this component might last. It is made of quite thin wire, and, in my experience, these thin cables have a tendency to break after a while, with the wire inside generally becoming broken. If it were possible to get a replacement, this wouldn't be of too much concern, but I'm not so sure that this is possible. Finally, the control box, what a shame that this is so low powered and unresponsive. The kit would rate so much better if only there was a better controller, able to respond properly to inputs and deliver a decent amount of zap!

Price

Compared to buying an insertable on its own, this set is just under twice the price. However, here you are getting the power box, the cable, the conductive strap, and the insertable toy. For what you get, the quality of the components, and the potential versatility, this price seems about right.

Performance

Rating the performance is a little tricky. If I was to rate it on an as supplied basis, I would have to say that it doesn't really deliver. As mentioned, the level of stimulation and lack of responsiveness from the controller are the biggest flaws with this product. However, if I was to rate the performance of each component, then there would be some highs and lows. The insertable rod performs really well, It fits inside really nicely, giving a really nice sensation from the bumps. When used with other electro stimulation set-ups, it is capable of providing some fantastic sensations and is really great fun to play with. The conductive strap does its job adequately. It is easy to fit and connect, it conducts the electrics current and stays in place. The controller, that I was supplied, failed to perform adequately, in my opinion. The unresponsive buttons and lack of power, due to only using a couple of 1.5v AAA cells left me very disappointed.

Packaging

The supplied packaging is, effectively, the shipping box. The box is a plain brown design on the outside, with the Oxy-Shop branding printed on the inside. It is very discrete, giving no information about its contents. Also included is an instruction booklet and a card with a code for a discount on a future purchase.

Materials and care

The insertable rod seems to be made of stainless steel. It was very easy to clean and, unless you suffer from an allergy to the material, should be body safe. Obviously, the rod is waterproof and could be used, on its own, in the bath for example. Likewise, the conductive strap is made of a material that shouldn't cause any issues, it is also easy to clean and wash if necessary. The control box would not be waterproof, and, besides which, electricity and water shouldn't generally mix as a rule. The controller is made of plastic and feels somewhat like a remote for a TV.
