Vibrations: Power And Range


Max Power Rating 7.5 9.5
Power Range Rating 5.9 8.5
Power vs Frequency Graph
How Strong Is Each Power? 

The Le Wand Plug-In has a good top strength of 6.7 out of 10 on our scale—but its power range is limited. All 10 levels fall in a moderate-to-strong range and are close together. There are no gentle warmup levels or extremely powerful settings that many full-sized wands have.

This could work if you only want moderate to strong settings. But for anyone who wants more nuance—a gradual build or extreme strength—it falls short. For example, the Magic Wand Plus starts gentler and ends stronger, with 34% more strength. The BMS PalmPower Extreme also offers gradual adjustability from very soft to extremely intense.

The Magic Wand Waterproof has an excellent power, starting gently and reaching an extreme top strength.

The first setting has a soft 1.9 out of 10 strength, which provides a comfortable warmup and is important in preventing overstimulation with the intensity this wand reaches on high. There are 4 power settings, and the second setting is already enough for me. I don’t even need to use the next two settings, but power lovers will enjoy these.

The max power is more than most of my wands provide at a 9 out of 10 strength. Only one wand gets stronger than this – the Doxy Die Cast. But the Magic Wand Waterproof’s top strength will be more than enough for most people, and gives a wide range for a comfortable journey.

The Waterproof’s 4 intensities are nearly identical to the Magic Wand Plus, and they’re stronger than the Magic Wand Rechargeable. Making it a great fit for those who want the intensity of the Plus, but the cord-free convenience of the Rechargeable.


Vibrations: Frequency (Rumbliness)


Rumbliness Rating 6.9 7.3
Power vs Frequency Graph
Frequency on Low Power 59 Hz 40 Hz
Median Frequency 79 Hz 77 Hz
Frequency on High Power 91 Hz 110 Hz
Power and Frequency Balance 6.8 7.4

We rate rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because it’s what most people prefer. However, this is an area of personal preference, so consider what you like.

The Le Wand Plug-In has average rumbliness – the first several settings provide rumbly vibrations at a moderate strength. Settings on the higher end feel neutral or buzzy. This covers a wide range of frequencies and can be good, especially if you want rumbly, neutral, and buzzy settings.

However, in this price range, there are better wands that span similar frequency ranges to the Le Wand Plug-In. For instance, the Magic Wand Plus and PalmPower Extreme cover a similar range with more power and better overall performance.

We rate rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because it’s what most people prefer. However, this is an area of personal preference, so consider what you like best!

The Magic Wand Waterproof’s first two settings are rumbly, but the top setting is extremely buzzy.

This still provides a good amount of power in the rumbly range. Since I rarely go past the second level, most of my experience is with low-frequency vibes that travel deep. And if I do venture up higher, the rumbly experience at the start has me warmed-up and ready for the neutral-feeling third setting. This frequency range is great if you want some, but not entirely rumbly settings.

Compared to other Magic Wands, the Waterproof has higher-frequency vibrations on its upper settings. This provides a more surface-level kick once you get to levels three and four, which some will enjoy. But if you prioritize rumbliness on all settings, the Magic Wand Rechargeable is a better choice (though it is about 17% weaker).

The Le Wand Plug-In is easy to use and has average comfort for a large wand.

You can easily reach the exact setting you want because of the excellent controls. You can increase and decrease strength, and adjust the intensity of each vibration pattern, too.

Hand Wrapped Around Le Wand Plug In Handle
The thick handle of the Le Wand Plug-in, which is difficult to wrap your hand around.

The thick, heavy handle can be tiring to hold and slower to maneuver. I find it easier to use two hands most of the time. While it’s not as nimble to move around, the weight adds excellent natural pressure. The head is pretty comfortable for how large and firm it is. It’s best if you prefer broad contact and tend to keep your wand in the same place. It’s not for you if you like more precise contact and want something smaller to move around more easily, like the Le Wand Dive.

Head sizes of Full Sized Le Wand with Dive and Die Cast and Petite
The Le Wand Plug-In’s head (far left) compared to the other Le Wands: Le Wand Dive (middle left), Le Wand Die Cast Rechargable (middle right), and Le Wand Petite (far right).

The handle material does affect the experience. My Le Wand Rechargeable, which I ordered in “white”, is a shiny, grippier plastic, which sticks to my hand better. I ordered the Le Wand Plug-In in “cream”, which has a matte finish, and this slides in my hand more easily, so it takes more effort to hold. Since you can’t select the exact handle material (only the color), you can contact the manufacturer before purchasing to ensure you get your desired finish if this matters to you.

For a full-sized wand, the Magic Wand Waterproof is very comfortable and easy to use.

Magic Wand Waterproof Handle Comparison with Magic Wand Rechargeable
The Magic Wand Waterproof’s handle (bottom) is a bit wider and longer than the Magic Wand Rechargeable (top).

The handle is slightly bigger and heavier than the Magic Wand Plus and Rechargeable. So it takes a little more effort to wrap your hand around and maneuver. However, the handle is still very comfortable, and the thick handle dampens the vibrations in your hand very well. If you prefer a slim handle, you may be bothered, but the grippy plastic makes for a firm, comfortable grip. When the handle is wet, it’s a little more slippery, but it’s still easy to grip and maneuver.

The plush head provides a cushioned feel that keeps the wand comfy when applying firm pressure. The squishy, cylindrical-shaped head is the same size as popular Plus and Rechargeable models. That unique shape helps to vary the contact area – more precise using the rim of the cylinder, and broader stimulation using the side.

Magic Wand Cylinder Head Precise vs Broad Stimulation
The cylindrical-shaped head allows you to vary the contact area – precise stimulation using the cylinder’s rim and broad stimulation using the side of the head.

The slightly flexible neck moves with your body, but still allows you to press hard if you enjoy applying firm pressure. The extra weight of this wand applies natural downward pressure too – you can just rest the wand against your body without having to leverage it.

Closeup on Magic Wand Waterproof’s Controls
The Magic Wand Waterproof’s excellent controls allow you to cycle through 4 power settings with the top button, and cycle through the 4 patterns with the bottom button.

The buttons are well-placed and easy to reach without getting in the way. You cycle through the four power levels with one button and through the patterns with another. Typically, I prefer controls that allow you to increase and decrease power (like the Plus), but since there are only four power levels and patterns are on a separate button, it’s easy to quickly get to the setting you want.

The IPX7 waterproof rating also makes it easy to clean this wand – you can completely submerge it during use or when cleaning it.


Use During Sex


Use During Sex Rating 6.5 9.1
Le Wand Plug-In Fit in Tight Space
Magic Wand Waterproof Fit in Tight Space
Spooning 5.9 9.5
Doggystyle 7.0 9.5
Modified Missionary 7.0 9.0
Cowgirl 6.0 8.5

The Le Wand Plug-In is sub-par during sex, mainly due to its large size, heavy weight, and firm, full-sized head.

In spooning, the wand’s bulk makes it tiring to hold. It’s best to shift your top leg back so that the vibrations don’t fatigue your leg.

In doggystyle, you can rest the base of the handle on the bed to help support the weight. But getting the bulky rounded head to hit where I want is tough. I have trouble getting good contact in modified missionary, too. In cowgirl, you’ll likely need to lean back to provide enough space for the wand to stimulate well. It’s heavy, so I prefer to let the weight rest against me.

Le Wand Plug In with BMS PalmPower Extreme and Le Wand Dive and Magic Wand Plus
The Le Wand Plug-In with better alternatives during sex: the BMS PalmPower Extreme (pink, angled), Le Wand Dive (blue) and Magic Wand Plust (white with blue buttons).

The vibrations travel pretty well, but wands with smaller heads like the PalmPower Extreme or Le Wand Dive are better if direct, consistent contact is important.

If your partner moves aggressively in any of these positions, the firm head can also press into you uncomfortably, in which case the Magic Wand Plus’s plush head is better.

The Magic Wand Waterproof is excellent to use during sex, especially for a full-sized wand.

The cylindrical head shape makes it easier to get close, direct contact than most full-sized wands allow, even in positions where close contact is normally difficult like Cowgirl. Unlike a round head that doesn’t fill in angled spaces, the cylinder’s rim fills in space between two barriers for better contact and pressure as shown below.

Magic Wand Cylindrical Head vs Round Head in Tight Spaces
Cylindrical heads (left) reach better into tight spaces than round heads (right).

It’s best in more open positions like Spooning and Doggystyle where there’s plenty of space to maneuver the wand. The long handle is also easy to prop on the bed to support it, which is helpful since this wand is heavy. The large head spreads contact evenly, for comfortable and very stimulating vibes.

In Modified Missionary, the cushioned head is especially comfortable. Because space is tight in this position, your partner’s body will often press the wand’s head firmly against you. With firmer wands, this can be uncomfortable, but the Waterproof’s plush head provides a soft cushion.

You can also rest the wand flat against your body in this position and let its natural weight provide good pressure. This is great, as leveraging the wand is tricky in this position since it’s large and space is limited, but it’s still doable if you need to.

Magic Wand Mini and Magic Wand Waterproof
The Magic Wand Mini (left) is smaller and more easily maneuverable compared to the Magic Wand Waterproof (right).

If you want something quick and easy to move around, the smaller Magic Wand Mini may be better. But for a full-sized wand with extreme top strength, the Magic Wand Waterproof is very comfortable and provides the weighty feel that allows you to rest the wand with less effort put towards leveraging.


Noise

Decibels on Low Power 51 dB 46.1 dB

Low Power Audible Inaudible
Middle Power Audible Audible
High Power Audible Audible
High Power with Box Fan Inaudible Audible
High Power with Music Inaudible Inaudible

The Le Wand Plug-In is not discreet. When we tested it, my partner could hear it on every setting from behind our closed bedroom door.

It’s so big that it’s hard to prevent it from hitting the covers, which makes extra sound. And without the covers, there’s no dampening of the sound. You can mask the noise with a box fan or music. But if you want something more discreet, the We-Vibe Wand 2 is both stronger and quieter.

The Magic Wand Waterproof is very loud – mainly on the higher settings. While I wouldn’t expect a wand this strong to be quiet, it’s even louder than other wands with this much power. As someone sensitive to noise, I find it distracting, and I prefer the Magic Wand Plus or Rechargeable for this reason.

The first setting was inaudible to my partner from the other side of the bedroom door. But every other setting was noticeable. Even turning on a box fan did not mask the noise of the top setting. Only playing music could drown out the sound completely.

The We-Vibe Wand 2 (demonstrated here) is much quieter than the Magic Wand Waterproof.

If discretion is important, or you’re easily distracted by sounds, the Magic Wand Rechargeable is more discreet, or the We-Vibe Wand 2 is an especially quiet wand!

Compatibility with Wanda 8.0 7.5

We test our wands with the Liberator Axis and Wanda mounts. The Le Wand Plug-In works well with both.

The Axis holds your wand at an angle while you lie across the mount on your stomach. The Le Wand Plug-In provides great pressure and contact in this mount since the head is so big – it reaches your clit easily and provides lots of comfortable surface area to press against.

The Wanda holds the wand up while you straddle the mount on your knees. Some smaller wands allow you to sit directly on top of the mount, but the Le Wand Plug-In is too tall for this. Instead, you’ll need to kneel above it for hands-free solo play or with a partner behind you. The broad head is very comfortable to press against for even pressure and consistent contact.

We test our wands with the Liberator Axis and Wanda mounts for hands-free play. The Magic Wand Waterproof does well in both!

In the Axis, you lie over the mount on your stomach, and the Magic Wand Waterproof is held at a slightly upward angle between your legs. The large, tall head provides a broad surface area to press against and consistent contact with my clit. And the head’s plushness keeps the pressure very comfortable.

The Wanda mount holds the wand upright for use while kneeling or in doggystyle. Since the handle is a bit thicker than the Plus and Rechargeable, you have to push it down further in the mount in order for it to sit at the right height. But since the mount is cushioned and flexible, this is easy to do. Once you’ve positioned it well, the broad head is very comfortable and maintains consistent contact with my clit, which is especially important during hands-free use since you can’t adjust the wand yourself.


Battery Life & Power Source

Battery Life on High Power N/A 197 Minutes
Can Be Used While Plugged In NA No
Charging Cable NA Proprietary Charger
Cord Length 8 feet N/A

The Le Wand Plug-In is corded, so you’ll need to play near an outlet, but you don’t have to worry about charging it between uses.

The power cord is 8 feet long, giving you some flexibility, and comes with 4 adapters for US, AUS, EU, and UK outlets.

The Magic Wand Waterproof has an outstanding battery life. In our test, it ran continuously on its highest setting for 197 minutes (over 3 hours) before dying. This is one of the longest runtimes of any rechargeable wand we’ve tested which is fantastic if you often forget to charge your toys. And this is especially long-lasting considering how strong this wand is. While the Magic Wand Rechargeable lasted a bit longer (248 minutes), it’s not as powerful as the Waterproof.

Magic Wand Waterproof and Port Cap
The port cap should be added back on when the Magic Wand Waterproof is not being charged.

It has an automatic shutoff every 20 minutes to protect its motor (though you can turn it back on immediately). Unlike the Magic Wand Rechargeable, the Waterproof cannot be used while charging. It comes with a small silicone cap to cover the charging port when not plugged in. The manual says to keep the port cap on when washing, and if water gets into the charging port, make sure to wipe it off.


Build Quality


Build Quality Rating 9.0 9.5

The Le Wand Plug-In has good build quality.

The plastic handle feels well-constructed and sturdy (not somewhat thin like the Le Wand Petite’s). The neck is thick, and I’m not worried about applying firm pressure. The buttons and firm head aren’t quite as comfortable as the competing Magic Wands‘ plush heads. But overall, it seems sturdy.

The Magic Wand Waterproof has excellent build quality. The plastic handle feels solid and sturdy, and the silicone head is plush and high-quality. The buttons are responsive and comfortable to press. Overall, it feels like a well-made, premium wand.

Magic Wand Waterproof Waterproof Rating Demonstration

The Magic Wand Waterproof has an IPX7 rating, which means it has been independently tested and verified that the wand can be fully submerged in up to 3 feet of water, for up to 30 minutes.

However, the user manual instructs you to keep the included silicone cap over the charging port when cleaning. It is unclear whether the wand maintains its IPX7 rating if the cap is not in place. We have contacted the manufacturer for clarification but have not yet received a response. To be safe, we recommend keeping the port covered with the cap whenever you use the wand in or around water.
