Fun Factory Launching Pulsator Toy Stronic One

LOS ANGELES—Beginning January 2013, Fun Factory USA will launch the first ever Pulsator, a toy called Stronic One equipped with a new patented technology that allows the device to thrust, not vibrate. Unlike the Sex and the City rotating and vibrating rabbit everyone knows, Pulsators silently rock back and forth using a complex weighted device instead of a motor.  Fun Factory’s Pulsators are rechargeable and 100 percent submersible, making Stronic One one of the more unique toys to hit the market in more than a decade. Pulsators were invented by Fun Factory. Stronic One is the first Pulsator in a family of three to come out in 2013. The patented technology used in Pulsators was deemed by testers all around the world to be  “more enjoyable than vibrations.” Out of 1,350 people who tested the Stronic One prototypes, 87 percent said they would gladly convert to using Pulsators instead of vibrators. One tester in the USA claimed “the thrusts of Stronic One are powerful and naturalistic, leading to more intense orgasms than even the strongest vibrators I ever used.” Dirk Bauer, founder and managing director of Fun Factory Gmbh in Germany said, "Experience has shown that strong and firm impulses—similar to thrusts—allow people to enjoy sex in a more intense way than just vibration. After 18 months spent developing this product, we are ready to bring to the market a sensational new kind of toy, a Pulsator, which simulates the natural movements of lovemaking.”  A video of Stronic One is available here. Stronic One stands 9 inches tall, with a silicone insertable portion measuring 5 inches and a silicone clitoral extension 2 inches long. At its base, Stronic One has a girth of 5.5 inches. The diameter of the shaft is 4.5 inches and the slightly curved end only 0.5 inches thinner than the shaft. The available colors are hot pink and deep violet. Stronic One thrusts using 10 different rhythms, all accessible with the + and – back-lit buttons. The red FUN button turns the toy on and off, acts as a kills switch and offers the possibility of locking the controls completely for discreet transport.  The programs offer rhythms ranging from a long, slow and penetrating thrust to an ultra rapid back and forth motion. An instructional video of the Stronic One will be released in November. A variety of pre-launch contests will also take place, allowing consumers to win Stronic Ones before they are in stores. Emilie Rosanvallon, marketing and sales manager at Fun Factory USA said, “Stronic One is the beginning of a new era for the novelty industry: the Pulsators Era!” Frederic Walme, CEO of Fun Factory USA added, “The Stronic One and its pulsating technology will revolutionize the market and mark the start of a new trend in the industry. I am proud that Fun Factory is confirming its position as a true innovator in the market place. With more newness in the pipeline for 2013, we will continue to push boundaries and bring innovative fun, securing our spot as one of the top brands to consider for the next year.
