Come back over here and let the prurience rub off on you.Sorry, but it won't rub off on me. Remember, I'm wearing the long underwear and chastity belt.

Can it be "thought controlled"?"Do you think that's wise? I mean, after todays' little workout...we might wear out the batteries. Or worse, break some balls.

Slow, deliberate...
Well, then you'll probably like the other model. The motor is eliminated in favor of a small sprung solenoid and a loose ball. At a user-set timed interval, the solenoid energizes, retracting into its coil, then de-energizes causing the loose ball to be launched against the interior end of the cylinder, which makes the whole thing jump. The outside diameter of the barrel is barely larger than the tip of your index finger -- barely larger than the AA battery that powers it. We debated long and hard, ahem, about an appropriate power source as many smaller batteries are available, but settled on the AAA for reasons of availability and, with the advent of high-current NiMH batteries MUCH longer and more satisfying, uh, service life.

"Not sure about the battery power, though. I'm thinking gentle sensations rather than those from the standard vibrator."
My inclination is to design for the long run, so to speak.
Self-winding watches have an eccentric movement which is designed to absorb the energy of motion, and release it in measured quantities.
Rather than continuous on, I think some kind of programmability would be in order. I'm wondering if a radio receiver could be effective in the environment in question.
I find it intriguing to consider the situation of having a remote control for the device, and the ramifications of surrendering control of that remote to another individual. Hmmm.

Wellnow...that's an aspect I hadn't considered. What would be the operating range of this remote control device? A foot? A yard? A block?

Yeah. I was thinking of the "perfect shape" for the girls as having a supermodel-type body. But apparently I was incorrect.
Heck, I didn't even know what a Ben Wa ball was until last night. I learn something new every day.
