The Nobra Twincharger from a small German manufacturer Nobra’s Silicone Dreams is the strongest male vibrator ever. But it’s also one of the smartest, with dual, independent motors (hence the Twin bit of the name) offering a variety of interference patterns that’ll have your cock wobbling around in the most satisfying of ways. And if you get the digital controller, you can even hook it up to Windows.
Pros
Extremely powerful.
Not too difficult to clean.
Offers a lot of control.
Cons
Might be difficult to understand how to use.
Overpriced.
Design
Given that the physical controls offer three dials and four buttons, you’ll understand when I say this will take you a while to learn.
The main control knob next to the power controls the overall intensity, all the way from a pleasant bassy thrum that’s similar to any regular vibrator to a washing machine on full spin cycle level of power.
Then the two knobs on the inline cable change the interference pattern by adjusting the power distribution between the two motors. It seems like one also acts as a secondary power limiter, but that is in addition to the main power dial. The other daily goes from both motors doing the same thing, to each doing the complete opposite of the other.
On the digital controller, you’ll also find four small push buttons. With the LED on the side facing you, buttons 1 and 2 increase and decrease the pulse width, respectively. 3 and 4 decrease and increase the distance between the minimum and maximum pulsation–I guess this is the equivalent of wave amplitude. (Yes, you may need to revisit your high school physics classes). By pressing button 4 several times, you end up with a pulsation of the vibration, so the vibration comes in and out in waves.
Press 1+2 to change the pulse form between sinus wave, sawtooth left, sawtooth right, and a rectangle. If you’ve ever played with a musical synthesizer, this might make sense. But for the rest of us, it changes the feel of the vibration. In theory, anyway. Personally, I couldn’t feel a huge difference.
Other button combinations are used to set things like saving a pattern, retrieving a pattern, or disabling Bluetooth.
I’ll be honest: even after re-reading the manual a few times, I’m still not 100% what these all do. But that’s ok; it still feels amazing.
You can also use a Windows-only app called Nobra Control. It’s no less confusing than the physical controls, but if you have a microphone or way to route sound around your PC, then in theory, you can get it to react to music in various ways. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get my built-in mic working.
I’ll also note that the Nobra Twincharger is compatible with the excellent Intiface software, a universal sex toy adapter application that, in turn, allows the Twincharger to connect with interactive video scripts, hentai games, and more. That’s really out of the scope of this review, but yes, it is compatible.
Experience
The combination of powerful motors and heavy, silicone body means the pulsations cause the entirety of the Twincharger to writhe back and forth, as the head oscillates wildly.
If you enjoy any kind of vibration on your cock, then you’re going to have your mind blown with this. Unlike other “guybrators,” that need to focus a limited amount of stimulation on your head or just your frenulum, the Twincharger can be felt through your whole shaft. Though if you’d rather it just be on the head, you can turn it around and do that too.
The other benefit is that it can be truly hands-free with the addition of a rubber band.
While the controls can be mystifying at times, you can just twiddle them until you find a setting you like, then largely ignore anything other than the main power dial.
On full power, it can be overstimulating, but I love to dial it down and edge for at least half an hour. If you or your partner like to twiddle nobs, you’re going to love teasing with the Twincharger in your play sessions. There’s so much variation in the sensations, and the interference patterns between each motor are really a unique experience that you have to try for yourself to believe.
It’s almost too powerful. While I love extreme sensations, if you’re the sort of person that’s borrowed their partner’s vibrator, tried it on your cock, and thought, “Ooooh, that’s a bit much,”… don’t even go in the same room as this.
This level of power isn’t ideal to run on batteries. While it is possible to make it up to 12V using batteries alone, they won’t last long. Which is why you need an a power adaptor and cable. The cable is annoying, and that’s something to be careful of. It’s also built into the main silicone chunk, so if you were to accidentally yank it out during use, it can’t be repaired. Route the cable carefully and ensure you won’t be jumping up (a bit of bondage is perfect for ensuring no sudden movements!)
Price
The main downside is the price. It’s one of the most expensive vibrators, retailing at just under €300 for the complete set with digital controller (as reviewed), or €225 for the basic analog model. I was lucky enough to score mine secondhand on Reddit—and if you’re thinking “ewww, gross”, know that silicone can be sterilized easily with a quick wipe of rubbing alcohol. I would never have considered paying €300 for a vibrator, but having tried it out, I think the price is justified.
However, you’ll need to order from nobra.de in Germany, pay in Euros, plus add delivery, VAT, and customs fees on top. That’s potentially another €100. That’s a lot of money for something to jiggle your cock around.
Packaging
Arriving in its own carry case, the Nobra Twincharger includes an AC power adaptor, main control/power box, and massive silicone … thing, with inline cable (which has yet another control box on it).
Materials and care
This easy-to-wipe clean beastly monster mouth-looking chunk of shiny black silicone is where the magic happens (other colors are available).
Joined at the base but remaining flexible, this enormous and heavy chunk of silicone envelops your cock, wrapping fully around it, with your head designed to go to the top where the vibrations are most intense.
I’m not nearly big enough to fill the whole thing, but I can still get it along my shaft nicely. I find pointing my cock upwards onto my belly has the best results. If you’re big enough, it should be a hands-free operation, but if not, a thick rubber band ensures it’ll stay put and offer maximum transfer of sensations.
While it’s not waterproof, the silicone is easily cleaned with a toy wipe or rubber alcohol—just don’t immerse it in water.
The We-Vibe Jibe isn’t a bad toy by any means, but it works best as an accompaniment rather than the main course. At an RRP of $130, it’s also quite a pricey option, even if it does offer rumblier vibes than the competition. If you don’t know how you feel about internal vibrations, that’s a lot to spend on a punt to find out.
Elsa Jean is a young, petite blond beauty, and her Fleshlight is tantalizingly tight with delicious textures to explore. If other Fleshlights have failed to deliver, I think you might want to try Elsa before giving up entirely and going back to the hand. My endless search for a satisfying pocket pussy might be over.
If you’ve always wanted to take the term “foot fuck” to its literal conclusion, the Succubus Sole Foot Fuck masturbator from Onahole.com (for US readers) or MostuToys.com (EU/UK) is potentially one of the best things to come out of Japan yet.
The Mainsqueeze Lulu Chu by Doc Johnson is a damn fine piece of sex toy craftsmanship. I’m sure plenty of you know of her work, and if you’re reading this, you’re probably already a fan thinking about giving it a shot. Well, let me set your mind straight, brother, this sleeve’s got the looks, the feel, and the texture to make you feel like you’re right there with her, no bull.
The Fleshy Thrust Sync is a well-built toy that offers an automatic stroking feature with 8 exciting modes with varying speeds, stroke-depth in addition to 4+ vibration modes and the option to heat the sleeve. The Fleshy Thrust Sync is powerful and will get you off in no time, almost too fast if you're not careful, so use lots of lube to reduce the friction and let it glide over you.
The Fleshy Thrust Sync's standout feature is it's truly immersive, sync-to-video cutting edge AI Sync Video connectivity using the Faptap platform. Thrust Sync's ability to sync and create an immersive experience by recreating the stroke patterns is really something else- whether it's Fellatio, Intercourse or prodding is pretty impressive as the Faptap AI sync is able to faithfully reproduce the appropriate speed, stroke depth and reciprocating motion that is shown on screen. If you're looking for an automatic stroker that has the ability to sync to your favorite videos and other videos on popular adult video sites, look no further- the Fleshy Thrust Sync has you covered.
While the toy is a great experience, please note it is rather large and requires a hand to constantly keep it in place, not allowing for a "hands free" experience. The largest point of criticism for an otherwise amazing toy is that it does get fairly loud as the mechanical whirs and actuation sounds between the automatic stroking occurs- it only gets worse with speed.
I recommend the Fleshy Thrust Sync for users who want a solid Automatic Stroker who doesn't mind the noise and for users who want to watch their favorite videos and get closer to feeling the action- I can't imagine how great this toy would be with VR!
The Main Squeeze: Xxlayna Marie sex toy by Doc Johnson is a great manual masturbator that I'd recommend to those looking for head stimulation! Fans of the pornstar will appreciate this toy and its quality. This is a great manual masturbator and I can definitely see myself coming back to it! The orifice is amazing and will please anyone who needs a lot of visual input. However, the squeeze function leaves a lot to be desired and only drags down an otherwise amazing product.
Pushing yourself into the ‘main’ side of this Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) jerk sleeve, you enter a soft ribbed texture. The Apollo Stroker is not meant to replicate anything real…but who cares?
Yes, I needed a goodly amount of lube to really fit into and make this masturbator work at its best, but again, almost all sleeves of this type need lube to be used. It’s just that this CalExotics one requires lots of it.
What’s interesting with the Apollo Stroker is that it is reversible, so you can enjoy two different sensations either rubbing against the side of the thing or fucking its hole. This inside-out functionality also means the cum sleeve is easy to clean. Soap and water or a good toy cleaner and water do the trick…then let dry.
Priced perfectly, squishy yet sturdy, delivering a good extra oomph for your hand, CalExotics Novelties has a winner here.
Fleshlight has crafted the Danger sleeve, molded from Abella Danger's vagina, and it's dangerously addictive. I found myself having a great time with this toy. This toy is a classic for a reason. The orifice is incredibly detailed and realistic, and the sleeve itself is fantastic. Playing with the suction on this toy will give you different toe-curling sensations during your sessions. If I had to recommend a first Fleshlight to anybody, it'd definitely be this one. While it's not my favorite Fleshlight, I think that it's a staple to the collection that's ready to make anyone cum.
Fleshlight is known for their huge emergency-grade flashlight-esque products. The Quickshot Vantage is something you might not expect from the brand. This tiny powerhouse is a transparent, open-ended sex toy. I'm here to tell you that it's just as powerful as its bigger sisters. The Quickshot Vantage was moderately intense. It's great for quick sessions where you're just itching to have that orgasm. If you want more nuanced play, then you won't find it here. If you've been waiting for an orgasm and you're ready to have it ASAP, then this is the toy for you.
If you’ve always wanted to take the term “foot fuck” to its literal conclusion, the Succubus Sole Foot Fuck masturbator from Onahole.com (for US readers) or MostuToys.com (EU/UK) is potentially one of the best things to come out of Japan yet.
