First impressions:
You know that saying dynamite comes in small packages? Well, it appears the saying serves well in the land of sex toys also. To be honest, I’ve never much seen the point of micro vibes, always believing them to be too small to be easy to handle or too weak to make a splash. But they don’t call these toys bullets for nothing.
What it is:
A bullet is what they call a micro vibe or what you might’ve heard somewhere referred to as a ‘lipstick’ vibe, because it’s no bigger than a small tube of lipstick. This particular one I’m reviewing, the Ammunition RO-80 mm, is produced by UK company Rocks-Off (RO), and is one of the smallest, most basic, but well-made, micro vibes out there. (The ‘80 mm’ refers to its length, by the way.)
How it works:
Bullets are purely external clit stimulators and should never, ever be inserted into your vagina (and certainly not your anus), as there’s no extending grip to pull it out easily. It is not, as some uneducated sex store owner informed the masses on 5FM last year, a kind of ‘small penis’.
What it does:
Well, the Ammunition RO-80 mm is a super straightforward bullet vibe, with one vibe setting and a simple push button on/off control.
What I thought of it:
The happy
I love this vibe. It’s not fussy, it’s powerful and it’s surprisingly versatile. Because of the really strong buzz and bullet-point tip it’s fabulous to trace over your skin and nipples during solo or partner foreplay and is remarkably effective as a little ‘well hello there’ around every part of the vagina, not just the clit (I was genuinely amazed at the stim levels around the vaginal entrance). Tickle it around your male beau’s genitals too and I’m sure you won’t hear any objections.
While it’s meant for a kind of targeted aim on the clit, try cup it in your hand and stroke it between your labia (while lying on your belly is best). Remember, your clit isn’t just the little bean, so pay attention to the whole of your lady bits. But however you choose to use this little Ammunition rockstar you can be sure you’ll get your orgasm easily. Got mine with toes curled.
The Ammunition RO-80 mm is particularly well-made and sturdy. I love the material (phthalate-free ABS plastic), the fact that it’s waterproof and that, surprisingly, it’s very quiet. It’s a thoroughly discreet, unobtrusive little package of BOOM!
The not happy
There’s nothing to be not happy about. There’s a little plastic cover over the battery you need to remove (because it’s not like I clicked a million times trying to figure out why the hell it wasn’t working) and some have said the battery doesn’t last very long.
Should you run out and buy it?
The Ammunition RO-80 mm will make a brilliant first sex toy purchase. If you’re unsure about the whole vibe business, have never tried one and don’t want to splash out a million dollars for your first toy, this is the one to get.
All toys and lube are supplied by Whet Sensuality Emporium.
