Best Bullet Vibrator Guide: Strong, Affordable Options (Tested)

I’m delighted to bring you this guide to the best bullet vibrators I’ve tested over 7 years! I focus on toys that are strong, waterproof, rechargeable, and affordable (under $50), yet have good power. I’ve rated them vs. the We-Vibe Tango, considered the gold standard. These bullets are a world away from cheap button-battery-powered minis recommended for “beginners” in the past.

A bullet vibrator is a handheld toy that ends in a firm point or slanted tip for precise clitoral stimulation. My best bullet vibrator ratings cover overall power, rumble vs. buzz, noise level, control style & extras, and price.

Rumbly vs. Buzzy Bullet Vibrator Criteria

If you’ve read more than a couple vibrator reviews, you’ve probably seen the terms rumbly and buzzy. In real use, they mean:

  • Rumbly vibrations feel deeper and more penetrating for sensitive tissues. For many people, rumbly vibes stimulate internal clitoris and labia better.
  • Buzzy vibrations are higher-frequency, so they can feel more surface-level, “zingy,” or “numbing.” “Buzzy” is usually a negative word, but that doesn’t mean high-frequency vibration is bad for everyone: People who want the most intense clitoral stimulation prefer high-frequency toys often.
How I Review & How I’m Funded

Body-safe only; test-driven performance. I only recommend toys I’d feel good suggesting to a close friend, and I don’t accept paid reviews, ads, or editorial control. Affiliate links help fund independent testing of 1,300+ vibrators, including more than 45 bullet vibrators tested since 2016. Every product is tested at least five times, with emphasis on ergonomics, ease of use, and—most importantly—sensation compared with similar toys, so you can decide if it’ll work for you.

Quick Picks: My Best Bullet Vibrator Recommendations

For a deeper dive, our most powerful vibrators guide includes accelerometer and harmonic resonance metrics.

Strongest Bullet Vibrator (Xara Fiend)

The Xara Fiend holds more intense vibration vs. every bullet I’ve owned. After 90 seconds of testing, I was literally on my knees from the strength — and this does not happen to me with typical bullet vibes.

Hand reaching toward the Xara Fiend bullet vibrator in blue ABS plastic.
What looks like a standard bullet hides an unusually layered motor inside — producing denser, wand-like vibration.

This thick Xara bullet has remarkable echoing resonance. It doesn’t just buzz, it actually quakes. Spectrographic testing confirmed why: Unlike typical bullet vibrators that emit 1 lone frequency band, the Fiend’s motor shows many layered vibration waves. This feels denser and more penetrating for the internal clitoris. (The sensation is closer to a good mid-sized wand than a standard mini vibe.)

Why It’s the Most Powerful in This Guide

  • Layered multi-frequency motor output (rare in bullets)
  • Firm ABS body transfers vibration efficiently
  • Consistently fast climax results in repeated testing
  • Compact 4-inch size, without sacrificing motor strength

If you want the absolute strongest bullet-style vibrator I’ve tested under $50, this is it. For full measurements and long-term testing results, see my detailed Xara Fiend review here. 🩵

Top power: 8.1/10.
Rumble: From 8.0 to 3.0/10 (layered, not traditionally rumbly).
Noise: 36–45 decibels pressed against skin.
Functions: 3 steady speeds; 7 patterns.
Other notes: Multi-sync vibration resonance. Firm + slick ABS plastic for best transfer. Extremely intense on speeds #2 and #3. Tingly fingertips.
Price: $45.99

Best Adjustable Speed Range (Swan Maximum Bullet)

Best vibration range from low to high power. The Swan Maximum Bullet beats the We-Vibe Tango in my testing because:

  • Fully adjustable “press&hold” vibration control: more personalized.
  • Slightly better speed range (starts lower, ends higher).
  • Easier to hold: The finger sleeve is sooooo convenient. It stretches over my first 2 fingers, so I don’t have to grip tight and I can easily position the Max. Bullet with my left hand, while my right hand is jerking…in with a dildo or G-spot vibrator (guide).
Swan Maximum Bullet with silicone finger-grip sleeve

The Swan Max. Bullet (by BMS) features the adjustable vibration control (Maximum Bullet review) found in the Pillow Talk Racy, later; but its tip is more precise, not flexible or wide like the Racy. This is medium-wide, and nicely rounded so you can rub it up and down without it jabbing.

Top-notch motor, silicone sleeve, travel lock, waterproof and rechargeable… This is one good mini-vibe.

Rumble: From 10/10 to 6.5/10.
Top power: 7.0/10.
Noise: 36–46 decibels pressed against skin.
Functions: Fully adjustable “incremental” control for customized steady vibration.
Other notes: Soft silicone sleeve so it fits over fingers! Vibe itself is nonporous plastic with a matte finish.

Best Focused Clitoral Shape – Pinpoint Focus

Different people like different stimulation styles, and one favorite for clit orgasm is focused, pinpoint stimulation. This is best for clits that like intensely targeted focus – in a small area, less than a finger’s width. Our best focused bullet vibrators have a “precision tip” that’s tiny + comfortably rounded to not poke you.

Prettiest Bullet Vibrator with Good Power

The Shimmr Bullet is gorgeous, first; and second, has 3 speeds from lower-powered to “pretty darn strong.” Its tip is very pinpoint, but not pointy or sharp.

Still, as someone who likes vibration over the full length of my clitoris, I’ve tested the Shimmr vibrator as feeling best when its side is applied to the body, so it covers above and below the clitoris too. YMMV, which is why anyone using the Shimmr can pick between the focused tip and the 2.9-inch length under it.

The Shimmr Bullet’s round, focused tip vs. longer 4.2″ side-length let you choose between 2 ways to hold. (It’s not sharp, nor inky! 😄)

The “mirror-finish” surface moves from bright rose to bright aqua blue, with a purple or silver / white band between the two colors depending on how striking the light around you is. It reflects light in all conditions except when I’ve brought it into my dark bedroom at night! So pretty.

Though this is not the strongest bullet vibrator on the list, but it’s not just beginner-friendly — it’s good for people who want medium-strong power and enjoy some buzzzz along with a realistic dildo or a pussy plug, for example. It also comes with a zippered hard storage case!

Top power: 6.6/10.
Rumble: From 4.5 to 2.5/10, zingy / buzzy & not deeply rumbly.
Noise: 31–42 decibels pressed against skin.
Functions: 3 steady speeds; 7 patterns.
Other notes: Attractive pink-to-blue gradient mirror finish. Firm + slick ABS plastic for best transfer. Lower-powered on speed #1; stronger on speeds 2 & 3; Tingly fingertips. Zippered storage case included, for keeping cord stored too; discreet.
Price: $34.99

Single-Color Power: Intense Travel Bullet, Light Purple

This Intense Travel bullet by Nass packs lots of power for under $35 and most, is easy to hold: just a smooth design. Mostly, I recommend the Intense Travel for focusing vibration on your clitoris. The tapered point is a classic bullet shape, so you really can home in better than with a flattened end. That makes the Intense Travel Vibe Mini better for use during PIV sex.

Intense Travel Vibe Mini bullet vibrator shown in hand for size reference

The vibrations are punchy — beginning pretty strong with a little rumble; and then moving up to “robust” and “whewwww, this is so strong I can come through underwear!” on intensity levels #2 and #3 respectively. I’m all about high speed (function #3 out of 10) on the Intense; it’ll get me off as quickly as I want.

The Intense Travel Vibe ($28.99) has more power than the We-Vibe Tango X ($79.00) too: but, the Tango X has more function options, at 8 intensity levels (versus 3 steady speeds for the Intense Travel Vibe).

Top power: 6.75/10.
Rumble: From 5.0 to 4.0/10.
Noise: 42–48 decibels pressed against skin.
Functions: 3 steady speeds; 7 patterns.
Other notes: Bullet tip allows for focused clit pressure & is great for rubbing too; high-power motor especially for the price; good length to hold onto; fits into a strap-on sex harness very well; silky PU coat.
Price: $32.99

Most Insanely Colorful Power Vibe (Limited Addiction)

When first released their Exposed bullet vibrator, I agreed to review it because it promised more strength than every other bullet out there. I was skeptical, but you know what? That original Blush Power Vibe was really frickin’ strong, like a mini-wand – surpassing the We-Vibe Tango’s power while selling for about 40% of the Tango’s price.

Now, the same vibrating motor exists in the Limited Addiction Bullets‘ watercolor style! Check out the Limited Addiction Mesmerize’s blue swirl vs. the Limited Addiction Psyche’s rainbow explosion:

Limited Addiction Power Vibe bullet vibrators held in front of flowers
Limited Addiction Power Vibe shown in multiple watercolor colorways.

Top disadvantages of the Limited Addiction, however:

  1. Note that this is a printed top layer that has a seam: it is not marbled silicone. I have not seen this layer peel on my Limited Addiction, but you would want to avoid using any astringent cleaners (containing alcohol, mica, etc.) on it: Soap and water only.
  2. The + and – buttons are difficult to tell apart, and you need to press them hard.

Among our best bullet vibrators here, this Power Vibe motor is not rumbly. It’s strong and reverberating, and it moves into buzzy territory on the top speeds (functions #4 and #5). Since I’m not a power queen, I find myself using it through barriers, like jeans or a towel even.

Top Power: 7.5/10.
Rumble: From 5.0 to 4.0/10.
Noise: Louder than most bullets, 39–45 decibels.
Functions: 5 steady speeds, 5 patterns.
Other notes: Bright watercolor print. 5 speeds with substantial power. Up and down control buttons make speed changing easier, but the buttons are tough to press.
Price: $35.99

Strongest under $30 (Maia Jaguar)

Truly intense power for under $28— this vibe kicks. The Jaguar by Maia Toys (review) is high-speed, high-pitch, high energy for a low price. It grrrr-bzzzz-whams with strength, so I end up needing to use it through underwear to enjoy.

Maia Jaguar bullet vibrator compared with Blush Power Vibe for size and shape
Jaguar in royal purple, top; vs. Blush Limited Addiction power vibe, bottom.

It’s close to the Blush Power Vibes, next: just 3 Hertz higher-frequency than the Blush vibes, for each toy’s 5 steady vibration speeds. So, the Jaguar’s leap into power is for the power-vibe fans, not the deep-vibe fans! Vs. the Blush Power Vibes, the Maia Jaguar is 10% slimmer, so it’s a bit easier to grip; and its button is much easier to press and turn on, changing speeds more easily.

Top power: 7.7 out of 10.
Rumble: From 6.5 to 4.0 out of 10.
Noise: 43–50 decibels.
Functions: 5 steady speeds; 5 patterns.
Other notes: Medium-focused tip: rounded, not so pointy. Silky PU on plastic. Strongest vibrator under $30 hands-down. Doesn’t fit as well into a strap-on harness; slightly uncomfortable metal ridge to grip.
Price: $29.99

Rumbliest under $25 (Essential Bullet Vibrator)

The BMS Essential Bullet is the strongest vibrator for under $25 out of all my test subjects.

The Essential Bullet’s speed #1 is very like the We-Vibe Tango’s second, and the Essential’s #2 is between Tango’s #2 and #3. And there are two steady Essential Bullet speeds after that! Unlike most other cheap + intense vibes in this guide, the Essential Bullet isn’t buzzy from the get-go. It rumbles pretty good through the third out of four steady speeds.

This bullet is fairly short (with no flared end), so it may be harder to keep a hold of during some sex acts with a partner—choose the Maximum Bullet vibrator (grip-free!) for that use.

I really like the roundness of the tip. It’s quite flat, not so jabby for people who dislike really pinpoint clitoral stimulation (*raises hand*). If you want nice rumbly-enough power on a budget, the BMS Essential Bullet is excellent. It comes with this hard zippered case that fits it wonderfully too: rare among bullet vibrators.

Rumble: From 8.0 to 6.0/10.
Top power: 6.2/10.
Noise: 43–46 decibels pressed against skin.
Functions: 4 steady speeds; 5 patterns.
Other notes: Silky ABS plastic coating. A bit difficult to power off (really hold that button down!). Amazing rumble for the price. Included actually convenient storage case.
Price: $21.99 ($19.79 with code phal10 during checkout)

Quietest + Gentle Power (BMS Pillow Talk Racy)

Overall, the Racy is the quietest small vibe here, and it’s very low-key vibration. That’s great for beginners and sensitive clits: it gets moderately strong on the higher end of its adjustable speed range, and is always very deep vibration.

Pillow Talk Racy‘s curved tip that is good for gentle clitoral stimulation—or you can insert it, making Racy a slim G-spot vibrator. It is flexible, so its less firm pressure vs. other best bullet vibrators ranked here.

Pillow Talk Racy compared with Pillow Talk Sassy for size and shape
Racy (top right) vs. its thicker cousin the Pillow Talk Sassy.

The controls are different because there are no set steady or patterned settings: instead, you hold down the (cute) Swarovski crystal button to make the vibe increase in intensity. Take your finger off, and it stops at the vibration level you want. The Racy’s vibes are nice and rumbly, and pretty strong on high; just not as potent as the Blush Power Vibes, but:

Much silkier silicone. I like the feel of the vibe—especially the diamond patterns in the lower third—against my fingers, it’s easy to hang onto. It is very flexible, so if you’re looking for hard pressure or max. power, skip it.

Rumble: From 10.0 to 7.0 / 10.
Top power: 6.75/10.
Noise: 36–40 decibels.
Functions: Fully adjustable speed (“incremental control”); no preset speeds or patterns
Other notes: Silky-smooth silicone feels great; love the diamond pattern handle. Very flexible = gentler pressure. A rumbly vibrator for sensitive clitorises.
Price: $44.99

Firm, Rumbly Benchmark (We-Vibe Tango)

We-Vibe Tango X bullet vibrator showing slanted pinpoint tip

The We-Vibe Tango has quite the reputation. It’s the only vibe here that costs over $60. For lovers of intense, firm, pinpoint clit stimulation, the Tango is still a good choice. The slanted tip lets you apply more direct pressure against your clit (or nipples, etc.).1 The eight steady settings range are deeply rumbly, even as the Tango only reaches a moderately strong power level. Some of its patterns (We-Vibe Tango’s sixth intensity, second pattern is my best) can be an amazing tease.

And the new Tango X version removes several drawbacks of the earlier Tango, mainly: the short battery life. A full list of Tango bullet upgrades in my Tango X review. Still, if you do like a softer touch, you may find the plastic hard and unyielding; and if you know and love wand vibrator power, the Tango is much weaker.

Rumble: From 9.5/10 to 7.5/10.
Top power: 6.5/10.
Noise: 33–37 decibels pressed against skin.
Functions: 8 intensities × 8 vibe functions.
Other notes: Slanted tip and firm body. New, larger silicone grip is slightly more awkward. Luxury-level packaging and 2-year warranty. Medium power, not super-strong.
Price: $79 list price/ $71.10 with code phal10

Soft Flexible Option (FemmeFunn Ultra Bullet)

The FemmeFunn Ultra Bullet was fairly strong when first released, but now seems less impressive in 2026. Its three steady settings followed those of the original We-Vibe Tango closely— yet, with less support over the motor core inside, the Ultra Bullet’s silicone is considerably more flexible than the Tango’s firm plastic.

FemmeFunn Ultra Bullet compared with Booster Bullet showing control buttons
FemmeFunn Ultra Bullet (top) compared with Booster Bullet (bottom).

It’s quite flexible, wrapping forward around my pubic mound. This means, the Ultra Bullet applies less pressure – but can be more comfortable to use during anal sex or in flat doggy style. The large bulb at the end can also help with stable grip, even when there’s lots of lube involved.

Finally…the patterns. There are seventeen patterns. Why, oh why, FemmeFunn?!? And yes, you do have to cycle through all these patterns via 1 button to get back to the one you really want. So, the button control needs improving.

Rumble: From 8.0 to 5.5 / 10.
Top power: 6.5/10.
Noise: 32 to 45 decibels.
Functions: 3 steady speeds + 17 (yes, 17) patterns.
Other notes: No plastic core, so it’s quite flexible. Silky silicone. Bulb is easy to grip when lubricated.
Price: $49.99

Bullet Vibrator Pros & Cons

Bullet vibrators offer focused, direct stimulation in a simple form factor—but like any toy style, they come with tradeoffs.

Looking for the very strongest vibrator type? My best magic wand vibrators comparison details each one’s power versus its size and ease of use.

A good bullet vibrator has these advantages and disadvantages:

Pros

  • Easier to maneuver and position for focused clitoral stimulation.
  • Firm bodies allow for precise, direct pressure.
  • Lipstick-style vs. pointed tips offer different styles of stimulation.
  • Least likely to interfere during vaginal sex or partnered sex.
  • Quieter vs. large vibrators.

Cons

  • No handle means your fingers directly feel the vibration (less ideal for sensitive fingertips).
  • Less internal space for ultra-high-powered motors than in larger toys.

NOTE

  1. Just don’t use any bullet vibrator anally, they have no flared base. ↩︎

  1. Great breakdown here.

    The only one of these I have is the Tango, and I like but don’t love it. I like a lot of pressure, and the angle of the tip cuts into me. i suppose I am just not a bullet type, really.

    I personally am not a fan of highest-setting-first because I will invariably wind up using it for a while than wanting something more. It’s rare enough that I never remember when toys work like this. Same for single-click-turns-off-the-toy types. I have a wand that works like that. You press and hole to increase intensity. I actually like it, but it’s unusual, so I forget and turn it off all the time. Wah!

  2. Every time *I* pick up a Tango, it just feels like straight-up buzz. (However, I have messed-up hands and although Internet tests are inherently flawed diagnostic tools, my “sensory and motor issues” score is basically off-the-charts levels of neurodivergent. In other words, as any reviewer worth their site rent would tell you, nothing works for every body.)

  3. Hey there! I just wanted to let you know how much i appreciate this guide. I’m still in the market for a vibrator that suits me and this guide helps so much for having something to come back to.

  4. Thank you SO MUCH for these reviews! I was scouring the internet for a rechargeable bullet vibe and your “rumbly rating” told me exactly what I needed to know. Thank you for your service to humanity.

    Reply
    • No, definitely not! The Sassy is rumblier, has fully adjustable speed, and is shaped a lot differently. I much prefer it, though I know some people will be drawn to the Essential Bullet’s smaller size.

  5. Hello, thanks for the guide! Does it still hold after 2+ years, or do you have other vibes to recommend now?
    Also, I have another question, because I’m not set in getting a bullet.. Would you suggest getting the Tango or a full vibrator like the fun factory ones? I can’t afford both, so I was thinking of getting either the pleasure-mate-combo(Tango, glow & dusk), or something like the ff tiger. They both cost about the same near me now.. How would you say they compare in terms of power and rumbling factor? I couldn’t find a comparison of the best bullet vs various other vibes..
    I already have the satisfyer Mr rabbit and I’m not thrilled with its power etc, and the satisfyer 1 next gen also didn’t do it for me. So I was thinking of investing a little more this time..
    Thanks again ~

    • The Tango still definitely tops for rumbliness! I updated this guide a bit in 2019 for the BMS Essential Bullet’s power-for-price, but it’s not as impressive as Tango. I am fairly impressed with the Hot Octopuss Amo, over the last year, in terms of vibration quality. I just feel its shape is slightly odd compared to a standard bullet—it’s harder to grip and apply pressure.

      If you are willing to go over $50 (everything in this guide besides Tango is under it), the Je Joue G-Spot Bullet has rumbly vibes that remind me of Fun Factory ones. The Je Joue bullets are a lot smaller than the Tiger G5, for sure.

      Yeah, Satisfyer vibrators are generally so buzzy, I feel you there.

      I’ve owned Glow and Dusk with Tango, and I felt they were really small for the price. It may also be that I wanted their silicone to be softer.

      With Tiger vs. Tango, it does just depend on how large you want the toy to be, and whether you want it to be insertable-optional. I’ve heard of people inserting Tango, but it is pretty slim. And not curved.

  6. I’m looking to buy myself a bullet vibrator to replace my current vibrator that I believe may be on its last legs. For someone with bottom growth (and thus, less sensitivity there), would you recommend the BMS Essential or the Blush Nocturnal more? I don’t really have a good frame of reference for what buzzy vs rumbly means, but I usually need pretty high power to get off due to the aforementioned low sensitivity. (P.S. I don’t remember if you were the one who recommended the sliquid sassy lube, but I love it!)

    Reply
    • Hmm. I think I’m going to recommend 2 bullets, and if you don’t like the cheaper one, you can upgrade to the rumblier Tango:

      • Satisfyer Sparkling Darling: as strong as the BMS Essential, doesn’t numb the fingers as much as Blush Nocturnal. High-pitched (fairly buzzy), but again, strong and great price at $25. Also has a wide tip if you’re wanting more coverage. BETTER WARRANTY than BMS or Blush.
      • Tango X by We-Vibe, because it’s pretty darn stimulating. Worth upgrading to rumbly vibes if the Satisfyer isn’t doing it for you.

      Yeah, Sliquid Sassy is great! I’m digging Simply Aqua Jelle (by Wicked) a lot now as a replacement too, since Sliquid was having availability crises for a bit last year.

      Hope this helps!!!

  7. I saw your recommendation for the Luxe Electra on a reddit post. You said you like it because you have a sensitive clitoris, but here you describe its power. Do you think it’s the best vibe for a sensitive clit?

    Reply
    • Hi! I think the Pillow Talk Flirty and then the Racy are better for folks who are sensitive to the point of wanting to avoid strength and a slight buzz in their vibe. The Pillow Talk vibes start gentler for sure, and they’re quieter. It is possible to be sensitive in that you feel sensation very acutely, but you also like to power up to more intense settings (especially after a gentler warmup). I generally like to recommend vibrators that do have a bigger difference between low and high intensities (a fuller speed range!) for that reason. The Luxe Electra’s range isn’t awful, but it’s not exceptionally good either.

      Reply
  8. Hey there, thank you for all your phenomenal reviews! I have a maybe unusual question – do you know of any vibrators that are really low-frequency, super slow so you can feel each pulse, and rumbly (but not necessarily powerful)?

    For context: I used to have the Luxe Princess, which was pretty good at the lowest setting. But the best thing I ever felt from it was when the motor was dying, and it got so slow that it changed from a consistent ‘rrrrr’ vibration to a low-pitched ‘woob-woob-woob’ vibration. I could feel it moving side to side as the motor spun around. It was amazing until a few minutes later when it completely died, lol. If I could have that as a setting, I’d be happy as a clam.

    A little more about my vibe experiences: the first vibrator I ever liked was a calexotics corded bullet; I was disappointed by the We-Vibe Touch feeling both too powerful and not resonant enough; I have a Le Wand that can be nice on the pulsing settings with indirect stimulation, but is so far too much power for me to come with.

    I’m willing to go over $50 for the subwoofer / dubstep / low frequency vibe of my dreams, if such a beastie exists!

    Thank you so much in advance!

    Reply
    • Hi! I think the Je Joue bullets’ 1st and maybe 2nd speeds (out of 5 total steady speeds) are the best bet. Those vibes have this unique pulsing kind of feel where you really can distinguish the “space” between the vibe motor’s rotations if you’re looking for that.

      I have the G-Spot Bullet and the Rabbit Bullet, and I know the Classic Bullet shares the same motor. The difference between the Classic vs. the G-spot bullet (which is slimmer than the NS Luxe bullets) is that

      • The Classic bullet is all a firm body under the thin layer of silicone;
      • whereas the G-Spot Bullet has like a padded separation in the curved tip that mutes the… immediacy of the vibration. So it’s slightly muffled.

      I’d guess you’d enjoy that buffer in the G-spot Bullet, since you were using the lowest speed of the Luxe Princess.

      All of the Je Joue vibes are super-rumbly on the lower speeds, & start getting higher-frequency on speed 3, with a bit of buzz by high power (speed #5).

      Hope that helps!

      • Felicity, you’re brilliant! Thank you again!

        I ended up getting the Je Joue rabbit bullet vibe and tried it out tonight – it felt fantastic and I came in like 10 minutes (incredibly fast for me).

        Those finger-like rabbit ears poking all the places wanting to be poked… the perfect thud-thud-thud of the motor on speeds 1 and 2… yummy! My orgasm was more spaced out than it usually is (just like the vibrator, longer between pulses than typical). I even had an orgasm pulse towards the end from pressing the rabbit ears into the side of my labia rather than my clit!

        Thanks again for giving me awesome joy! Now I gotta decide if I’m going to get the Naked Addiction Freak to use with it… 😉

  9. Could you please tell me what are the best bullets for putting inside silicone dildos as of 2022? The last time I bought one for this purpose I got a BMS Essential Bullet which is still alive and well but I’ve been considering an upgrade for awhile now. I misremembered you suggesting the Nu Sensuelle for some reason and it seems like the Nocturne was best besides Tango X but of course now the Nocturne has become the Wellness. I also can’t trust myself to read things correctly apparently lol. Sorry if the answer should be obvious. 🙂

    Reply
    • Hi! Which dildo with hole do you have? The hole size varies a little between dildos, so I can give better recommendations for a bullet if I know.

      The Exposed Noctural / Wellness Power Vibe / Realm Silver Bullet is too large for these holes across the board, though, it’s likely to tear silicone.

      • Thank you! I knew it needed to be small but I didn’t think to compare all of the sizes, I was too focused on strength. Currently I have a rainbow Jollet by LuzArte (though I don’t use it much because the super cute rainbow bag it came with got glitter all over it and I could never entirely wash that off) plus Nathan 1X and Steve 2X. I’ve also been eyeing the Cute Little Fuckers line for a while now and I intend to buy at least one. I expect the two SquarePegToys have slightly bigger holes, since they work with Vac-U-Loc, although they really didn’t want to give up the BMS Essential Bullet even with lube so probably not that much bigger in retrospect. 😅

  10. Thank you for this guide!

    I apologize if I am just somehow misunderstanding what you are saying in the quote below, but is the motor in the Blush Wellness and Addiction series the same as was in the Nocturnal or as was in the Realm? I have the Nocturnal and Realm and definitely feel a difference in the two (holding the Realm doesn’t numb my fingers as much as Nocturnal).

    Quote being referenced: “2022 Update: The Exposed Bullet has been replaced by the same-shaped Wellness Power Vibe (purple) and the Limited Addiction Power Vibes (6 vibrant colors). The Wellness & Realm Bullets are even a notch more powerful than the Exposed, but their first speed is slightly lower-powered and slightly rumblier (≈10 Hz lower-frequency). Still, both the Wellness bullet & Realm Bullet are high-pitch vibes that I would not classify as rumbly, ”

    Thanks!

    • Hi! The Exposed Nocturnal Bullet doesn’t exist anymore, but its form and a very similar but not exactly the same motor are in the Limited Addiction Bullet and the Wellness Power Vibe, which share the same motor described in that paragraph. Perhaps it’s the slightly lower frequency in this newer-model motor that makes your fingers less numbed after use.

  11. Hi! Which bullets are best for fitting in bullet slots on silicone dildos? Since many of these are a different shape or size. Do you have a go to?

    • Could you tell me which silicone dildo you’re using specifically?
      Bullet slots are unfortunately both rare, and the size varies by manufacturer.
      I can tell you about the Tantus toys with holes, and Hankey’s Toys, and a few others.
