Has <a  href=\"http:\/\/www.indiegogo.com\/projects\/revel-body-the-first-sonic-vibrator\">Revel Body<\/a> got a product for you.<\/p>\n<p>This crowdfunded project aims to make your alone time (or time spent with friends) more rewarding. The product, essentially a sonic vibrator, is designed for ladies and, presumably, men. The team, led by Robin Elenga, has created a high-frequency system for offering a better &#8220;buzz&#8221; during those moments when you&#8217;re visiting the Palms Hotel.<\/p>\n<p>The product offers &#8220;50 percent more power&#8221; and &#8220;400 percent vibration range&#8221; and reduces the vibrations felt in the hand and focuses those vibrations on sore muscles and\/or your vagina.<\/p>\n<p>The product uses a resonating motor to offer a larger range of vibration speeds and sensations and it&#8217;s shaped like a tennis ball to reduce the strain on wrists and other body parts. It&#8217;s run on a rechargeable battery that connects to any USB port and offers nearly silent operation, unlike similar linear-motor-powered vibrators. Because it doesn&#8217;t exactly look like a traditional vibrator you could even put it in a place of honor on your bedside table or office desk.<\/p>\n<div class='embed-vimeo' style='text-align:center;'><iframe src='http:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/61058337' width='400' height='300' frameborder='0'><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>The vibrator comes (to your house) for a pledge of $140. You can get two for $220. They are hoping to raise $50,000 and are nearly there so they just need that extra push to get them over the edge. I suppose, given the circumstances, we should probably help them out.<\/p>\n<p>  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/gocomments\/tctechcrunch2011.wordpress.com\/798277\/\"><\/a> <\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=rDj1wpcR_RY:HwYtKqy4JVc:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?i=rDj1wpcR_RY:HwYtKqy4JVc:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=rDj1wpcR_RY:HwYtKqy4JVc:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?i=rDj1wpcR_RY:HwYtKqy4JVc:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=rDj1wpcR_RY:HwYtKqy4JVc:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you suffer from &#8220;sore elbows, wrists and hands from having to hold small and awkward shapes?&#8221; Have you found that &#8220;products are confusing to impossible to control?&#8221; Do you know what a phthalates is and are you embarrassed by the packaging of your favorite personal massager products?
