Features to consider when choosing a panties vibrator
When choosing the best vibrating panties, there are a few features you may want to check out. This will ensure that you’re getting the right model to meet your needs and sexual preferences.
Clitoral or G-spot?
There are two options when choosing a panty vibrator. These are clitoral and G-spot models. Each of them offers a unique experience, so you need to consider their differences before choosing one.
Most of the models in our reviews are clitoral vibrators. These stay outside of your body, resting against the natural curves of your private area. They stay near or on your clitoris, stimulating this area with different functions. The G-spot models, like the Love Rider Vibrating Panties, include a piece that is inserted inside of you for a different type of stimulation. There is no right one to choose since no woman likes exactly the same sensations as another woman.
Whether you prefer the clitoral or G-spot models, you should look at the size of the unit and how discreet it is. Some of these are bigger than others, so aren’t very portable. The smaller pieces can be slipped into a purse or pocket when you’re not using them. Larger ones are best used closer to home when doing some chores, shopping online, or watching a movie.
What can be used to control it
There are a few different options when it comes to controlling your new vibrating panties. One option is a simple on/off switch, like the one on the Love Rider Vibrating Panties. Though this is easy to use, it isn’t very discreet since you would need to reach into your pants or under a skirt to press this button. This makes it almost impossible to adjust when in a public setting without running to the bathroom first.
Some of the best vibrating panties come with a remote control, including the Fifty Shades of Gray Panty Vibrator. You still need to turn on the vibrator but then you can control the functions using the remote control, keeping your hands out of your pants while you enjoy the stimulation. You can also hand the remote to your partner to allow them to control the different settings and speeds. The downside to the remote control is that they have a limited range, so if the remote is too far from the vibrator, it no longer works.
The best control options are the ones that allow you to download an app on your smartphone to control the vibrator. This way, you can use the app yourself, plus your partner can download it as well. You can give them control, no matter where they are, making these the best vibrating panties for long-distance relationships.
Materials used
The materials used on the vibrating panties is extremely important since it is going to be against your most sensitive areas. If the material is uncomfortable, you aren’t going to want to use your new pieces.
One popular material for use on these vibrators is silicone. Models like the Mantric Panty Vibrator choose this material because it is soft, supple, and smooth. It also has some flexibility to it, so it bends with you as you move while maintaining its position in your panties. This material is also easy to clean with some simple soap and water, keeping stains and sticky messes from soiling your new toy.
Another popular material is rubber, which is similar to silicone in flexibility and smoothness. This is usually used on the internal models since they have a bit more give to them, allowing you to fit them into yourself comfortably.
Vibration modes/speeds/patterns
Though having one speed on your new vibrating panties can still offer some pleasure, having some variation to the speeds and patterns of the vibrations can enhance your experience in many ways. Sometimes you may be looking to feel the sensations as a way to tease yourself, so the lower and slower functions can offer some pleasure without bringing you to climax. This is fun for couples since you can get yourself warmed up beforehand and finish the job when you’re together in the bedroom.
Other times, you may be having a solitary day where you want to be alone or you don’t have a significant other to play with. The different settings can simulate being with a partner, offering varying stimulation before you turn up the vibrations and finish yourself off.
The different speeds and patterns are also great to offer different types of stimulation. Some women are more sensitive than others, so they climax much quicker. Other women need a bit more pressure and faster vibrations to get the job done, so having a variety to choose from makes units like the Lovehoney Desire a better choice for all types of women.
Power source
The power source is another important feature to look into before buying these units. Many of the vibrators, as well as the remote controls, need batteries to run, so you need to keep a stock of the proper ones to ensure the vibrator doesn’t die when you’re in the middle of using it. It also won’t be easy to change the batteries when in a public setting, so you’ll need to carry extras with you and have a bathroom available if the batteries run out when you’re out of the house.
Rechargeable models are a bit more environmentally-friendly since you aren’t constantly changing the batteries on a well-used toy. The runtime varies on these units, though, so you may want to keep track of how long you’re using it so a pleasurable session isn’t cut short. You should also consider how long it takes to charge the unit. For instance, the Mantric Panty Vibrator has a charge time of about an hour, so you don’t need to wait too long before it’s ready to go.
Runtime
The runtime on any of these types of toys is one of the most important features to look at. If you can only use it for a short time, there isn’t much point in trying to wear them out in public since most of the time it will just be sitting in your panties doing nothing. The longer the runtime, the more use you’ll get out of it.
Of course, you likely won’t just leave it in there running for the entire time. The beauty of these devices is that they can be turned on and off for some stimulation throughout the day. You don’t want one that runs down and stops working, though. A longer runtime, like the 120 minutes offered by the Lovehoney Desire, will ensure that you get the most pleasure possible throughout the day.
If the panties are included
Though not every model in our reviews offers this feature, many of them do come with a pair of panties to use with the vibrator. This is handy since the panties are designed to be used with that specific vibrator, so they will work together for the most comfortable fit possible.
The flaw with these panties is that many of them aren’t designed to fit every woman. They may have a size range that they fit comfortably, so if you aren’t in this range, they will be either too big or too snug for your body. If this is the case, you’ll likely use your own panties anyway, making the included pair useless. Of course, some models, like the Lovehoney Desire, include panties with adjustable ties, so they are a better fit for varying shapes of women.
