The Trojan Interchangeable Vibrator is actually a pretty sweet gig - when I got my hands on it after some really fast shipping ( dang, Babeland, your shipping program is great! ) I found that the packaging was pretty nice, too.
It's not terribly discrete, as you can see - Trojan is a really well-known brand so unless you're storing this around a blind person, you're not going to want to keep it in its main box. You probably won't want to keep the vibrator in the open, either. The packaging comes with some instructions as well as a really nice satiny toy-bag.
The toy itself is really fucking nice. The plastic grip is coated with.. something? I'm not sure what it is but it makes the whole thing feel velvety and nice to the touch. It also gives you enough texture to hold onto even if your hands are lube-y and that's really nice for a clit vibe since having it slip ( in a bad way ) during jilling off would just suck.
The controls themselves are also really nice. They're the same color as the hard plastic casing and they look to seamlessly mold into the rest of it - my only beef is that they're really hard to push while you're using it. They give off a lot of resistance, especially the - one ( probably because it indents rather than bumps ) so if you want to switch settings it's going to be pretty difficult. I would have honestly liked to see a dedicated on/off button for this, however, because cycling through all the patterns of vibes to get it to shut down is annoying.
On to the tips!
There's three of them, like I said - a somewhat pointy plastic one ( the bottom one ), one that looks kind of like a honey-dipper and then one that makes a sort of 'cup' for your clit.
The sensations for these are.. pretty vastly different. The plastic one conducts the vibrations a tad bit better than the other two, but it's also slicker, which means less friction. I'm the type of person who really likes rubbing a clit vibe back and forth for extra stimulation, as well as to keep from numbing myself up and the plastic tip doesn't have enough drag to make that part pleasurable for me. That, on top of it being... well, plastic has made that particular tip get about 3 out of 5 stars.
The next one, the cupping one ( top ) I just... no. It-- no. This one is really bad. I don't like it. The tip doesn't work with my anatomy well - to get any decent vibes on the clit I have to turn the curving part downwards so it fits between my labia which ends up pressing the very end up against my urethra and that's not fun. It's an aggravating feeling, especially when I try to rub my clit with it. This one's silicone, but I don't get enough friction+pressure+vibes for it to be any good for me and unless someone tells me how to magically use it so it feels good, it won't be screwed onto the Rocket any time soon. It gets a 2 out of 5.
The third and final head - the honey dipper that's screwed on in the picture - is the best one. It redeems the other tips with such gusto that if it hadn't come with the other two, just this one, I'd be more than fine with it. The ridges on this one are pronounced enough that rubbing it on my clit, combined with the vibrations, brings me immense pleasure - maybe not toe-curing scream inducing pleasure but it's pretty damn good for something I have to jam up against my clit. This one has the same kind of friction drag the other silicone one does, but with the added ability to actually be used to stroke the area rather than hold it in place. This gets a 5 out of 5.
Now, on to the vibrations themselves. They're... pretty good. I think they're about a four out of five on the strength scale, with a 3 on the loudness. They're trending towards being a more 'buzzy' vibe than a deep-set rumbly one, but the power outweighs the buzzy in this case and makes it pretty pleasurable. From what I can tell, the motor is based low-down to the usable end of it, which means it's definitely stronger where it counts rather than at your hand. There is a problem though - with the vibes being 4/5, and the handle of the vibrator being so short, sometimes it means that your fingers will get numb if you hold it too low for too long. This is, however, a minor side-effect and not something I'm really complaining about since it's my fault for trying to clutch at the middle of it when Trojan gave me a perfectly good hand-hold.
There's also various levels or patterns of vibration; 1-5 are all different strengths. It starts out on the lowest and graduates up to the 5th and highest level before switching to the patterns. No. 6 is a low-to-high pattern that moves like a wave, not just up/down/up/down. No. 7 is a quick pulse, off to high at a little bit more than one pulse a second. No. 8 is a quick burst followed by a slightly slower buzz; - - - - ---.
Cleaning-wise, I'd use a soap-and-water solution or toy wipes to clean it off. It says it's water-proof but I haven't tested that; I'd judge it to be splash-proof considering that I can slip my thumbnail between the cap and the o-ring that's based on the outside of the toy. It feels like it might leak after awhile in there, so I wouldn't suggest submersing it, and I definitely wouldn't boil it because that would fry the electronics on the inside of it, not to mention that the plastic body would probably melt.
Bonus round! The bag is pretty big, as you can see - they probably could have gotten away with making it shorter, but that's okay. The material is sturdy and thick and does its job - keeping the toy clean and lint-free. The drawstring is a little bit difficult, though - it likes to stay scrunched when you try to open it.
In total, I'm giving this toy a 4 out of 5 stars.
