The colorful, matte-finish shine of the Electra's hard plastic exterior may be beautifully showy, but that's not all it has going for it. Powered by two AAA batteries, this toy's feisty motor packs a considerable amount of power into its compact frame. Simply press the button on its base to cycle through three speeds of steady vibration, ranging from gentle to strong, and two deliciously varied patterns of vibration. The Electra's completely smooth and very slim profile also make it an excellent vaginal dilator or therapeutic aid for anyone working to build comfort with penetration.

Care/Cleaning

This product is made of ABS plastic and has electronic components.

ABS Plastic is simple to care for and easy to clean. It’s a hypoallergenic, non-porous material that won’t break down or leach chemicals into the body over time. ABS Plastic toys that vibrate can easily be cleaned with hot water and a body-friendly soap before and after each use, just be careful to avoid getting water in the battery chamber or charging opening. Using a washcloth may be easier than running water directly from a faucet onto a toy. If you want to sterilize your ABS hard plastic toy mix a solution of 1 part bleach 9 parts water and spray, wipe, or dip the toy into the solution and let stand for 5 minutes then rinse thoroughly.

ABS Plastic is compatible with any kind of lubricant.

If you want to share your hard plastic toy, we recommend cleaning between bodies or orifices, or using condoms as needed.

If your toy is battery operated, rechargeable batteries are not recommended. Customer feedback suggests that they are more likely to corrode, leak, explode, and ruin perfectly happy sex toys. We recommend removing the batteries from a toy during cleaning and between uses.

Fluke is a unique insertable that defies conventional classification rules.  Is it a butt plug?  Is it a dildo?  Is it a vaginal plug perhaps?  You decide!  Therein lies the beauty of this versatile design.  Hand made by the silicone sculptors at Hole Punch, this toy features gorgeous gradient color, a bold head and sturdy base for easy handheld use or strap-on play. The relatively short stature might make this an ideal toy for vaginal penetration underneath a harness to pleasure the wearer. This toy is hand made in small batches by a local Minnesota company, so colors and texture may vary slightly and there may be slight surface texture imperfections. These are not defects, and will not impact the safety or function of the toy.

Manufacturer Warranty: If your harness breaks during typical wear, you can send it back for repair or replacement at Project TransAction's discretion. 

Care/Cleaning

Leather products are porous, meaning they cannot be completely sterilized and they will absorb water, so when cleaning it is best to use as little water as possible. Only use soaps specifically made for cleaning leather, like saddle soap or specialty leather wipes. Follow cleaning instructions of whichever leather cleaner you choose, then using a dry towel pat dry until all excess moisture has been absorbed.

Standard hand soaps or dish soaps can damage dyed leather and/or dry out leather leading to cracks or fraying. Oils in lubricants or soaps can stain leathers and should be avoided.

Over time leather conditioners may be necessary to keep leathers from cracking or wearing out, especially around buckles or other metal hardware.

Simple, aesthetically pleasing and carefully designed for therapeutic use, these silicone dilators are an invaluable tool for people who are dealing with pelvic pain issues. Physical therapists and gynecologists often recommend dilators for patients experiencing pelvic floor muscle dysfunction, vestibulodynia, and other conditions that are sometimes called "vaginismus." Dilators can also help regain vaginal flexibility, resilience and openness after radiation therapy, surgery, or hormonal changes.

Using dilators can help a person practice the experience of comfortable, controlled vaginal penetration, and encourage their vaginal muscles to relax and elongate in healthy ways.

Soul Source dilators were created by a sex therapist and a gynecologist, and are designed for easy use and simple care and cleaning.

Care/Cleaning

This product is made of solid silicone.

Silicone is non-porous and non-toxic. Medical grade silicone is totally safe for your body. It can be easily cleaned and sterilized by following the guidelines below.

To clean silicone, wash it with hot water and a body-friendly soap before and after each use. Make sure your toy is dry before storing it.

To sterilize silicone, wash it and then boil it in plain water for 3-5 minutes. As an alternative, you can also use a solution of 1 part bleach and 9 parts water. Soak your silicone toy in this solution for 5 minutes, then allow to air dry. Sterilize your silicone sex toys between partners, between holes, or if you would just feel better about using your toy if you did.

Solid silicone can sometimes be incompatible with silicone lubricant. Before applying silicone lube to a silicone toy, we recommend conducting a “patch test.” After 10 minutes of contact with silicone lube, rinse your toy and inspect for signs of bonding, peeling, or a foggy or damaged surface finish. If there are no visible signs of damage, your toy is safe to use with silicone lube.
