Review: Babelight

Say Hello to my little friend! No, that was not intended as a phallic reference, or a threat. I was  merely referring to the Babelight! An adorable novelty toy from Babeland. The Babelight, as its name implies, is essentially a tiny vibrator and flashlight combined. It is best suited for light external stimulation, and is the perfect pocket pal for your clitoris, nipples, and other fun spots. It could also be used for shallow vaginal penetration, but really isn't large enough or strong enough to be very effective. Do NOT, however, attempt to insert this anally. As tempting as it may be to use the key-chain as a retrieval cord, envision the consequent  walk of shame to the ER, should that chain happen to break. Best be on the safe side and keep this little cutie away from your patootie.

The Babelight is made of smooth, transparent, hard plastic. It's available in your choice of 6 vibrant colors. I received the red, which is pretty spiffy. Size-wise, this toy is 3 5/8" long, and 3/4" wide. It comes with a key-chain, looped through a hole in the bottom of the toy. The chain adds another 2" to its length. It also makes this travel friendly, and way fun to tote around with you! The light is completely covered in plastic, and therefore any surface of the toy can be used for stimulation. The vibrations are strongest at the tip, where the light is emitted from. However, they can be felt faintly throughout the shaft of the toy. The Babelight is also remarkably quiet! It can become a bit noisy if you allow the chain to dangle loosely, however, as it tends to rattle against the plastic.

To keep your Babelight clean, merely wash with antibacterial soap and warm water. The inside of the cap does feature a small plastic o-ring, which should help to keep water out of the battery compartment. However, I've found that it isn't all that effective at its job. I've  rinsed this under running water, and submerged it, and both times I've found moisture inside the cap.  It would probably be best to wipe this down with a damp cloth instead of rinsing it under running water. You could also wipe it down with some isopropyl alcohol, if you'd like to disinfect it.

I was practically jumping for joy when I heard that this lovely little bullet didn't require the use of those annoying watch batteries!! To use your Babelight, simply unscrew the cap of the toy, and insert one AAA battery. Screw the cap back on, and when it's fully attached, the toy will activate. Unfortunately, the light and vibrations work simultaneously, so you couldn't just whip this out in front of your friends and family to illuminate a situation. Not unless you're comfortable having your flashlight buzzing merrily away all the while. I was a little disappointed that it couldn't be used more inconspicuously, but it's a fun item non-the-less. As far as performance is concerned, the Babelight delivers about as much as you'd expect from a toy of its size and price. The vibrations are very buzzy and light. You won't receive earth shattering, clit numbing power from this tiny toy. It's more intended for soft teasing, and naughty fun in public. The light isn't particularly bright either. It's suitable enough to help you search for that lost change, or the keyhole to your door, but is not really meant for more heavy duty tasks. However, it's still a really adorable item, and would make a great little stocking stuffer or gift for your more frisky friends.
