USB vibrator to hit the shelves!
This is one way to get more bang for your buck.
The Duet is a new, sleek, multispeed, waterproof vibrator - and it doubles as a USB drive with up to 16GB of storage.
Its designers, Ti Chang and Michael Topolovac, realized that the biggest complaint from women about vibrators had to do with the hassle of cords, batteries or obscure charging devices.
They discovered a USB connector was the solution.
"You look at it plugged into a laptop, charging and it doesn't look anything like a vibrator," Chang said.
It comes in a variety of colors. And if you spring for the deluxe model, it functions as a flash drive.
Chang and Topolovac, of the San Francisco-based design firm Crave, joined forces when they realized they shared a vision to help women find a comfortable, discreet sex toy.
The vibrator can be discreetly plugged into your laptop to charge.
Topolovac's interest was piqued when a dinner conversation with two lady friends turned to the topic of vibrators.
"Neither of them had ever owned one and I was intrigued," he said.
Chang's jump from designing hair brushes and bicycles to sex products was sparked by something more personal - her own frustrations in shopping for a vibrator. "I don't understand all the rabbits, the dolphins ... the materials are often cheap and the products poorly made," she said.
And thus, the Duet was born.
In addition to its dual functionality as a memory storage device, the Duet is also waterproof - owing to Topolovac's past design experience with underwater cameras - and virtually silent.
The innovative duo used CKIE, a Kickstarter-esque funding platform for designers, to raise capital needed to produce the vibrating delight. In just two days, Chang and Topolovac reached their goal.
The designers expect the Duet to hit shelves in early October.
