ooo, servo is getting closer to rendering #gush correctly!

Wer hatte hier denn neulich nach dem #Lieblingstoy gefragt? Meins ist aktuell der #Gush von Lovense. Die erste Version wurde vom Hersteller noch als Eichelstimulator bezeichnet. Ich finde, das macht der ganz gut. 😊
Das besondere ist, dass das Toy über das Internet freigeschaltet werden kann. So können je nach Verbreitungsweg, konkrete Personen oder auch wildfremde die Steuerung übernehmen.
