Power vs Frequency Graph
How Strong Is Each Power? 

Though the Magic Wand Rechargeable has about 85% of the power of its corded version, it’s still one of the strongest wands in my collection, with a top power of 7.67 out of 10.

With four power levels, the lowest setting starts at 1.75 out of 10, providing an enjoyable warm-up without overwhelming. The second level is slightly stronger than my favorite non-wand vibrators, and the third is substantially more powerful – I usually finish on the second setting, but occasionally want the extra oomph of the third level (often over my clothes)!

I can rarely use the top strength because it’s too intense for me but is excellent if you crave immense power. It’s also worth noting that you can use the Magic Wand Rechargeable while it’s plugged in, but doing so does not increase the strength.

Magic Wand Mini vs Rechargeable Size and Strength Difference
The Magic Wand Mini (left) is better if you want a higher concentration of powers in the lower-realm. The Magic Wand Rechargeable (right) is better if you want a wider range between power jumps

Together, these four settings provide a wide range to enjoy. If you typically prefer gentle stimulation, you might consider the Magic Wand Mini instead (the even smaller Magic Wand Micro is more comparable to a bullet vibrator and too weak for those expecting the strength of a wand). But the Rechargeable is best for those who enjoy moderate to extreme strength.

The Fun Factory Vim has an excellent power range that starts gently and reaches extreme strength on high.

Although there are even more powerful wands, I consider the Vim’s top strength of 7.3 out of 10 extremely intense and more than enough for me. I rarely use the top levels because the first few settings provide plenty of stimulation. It’s especially strong, considering how rumbly the Vim is – most wands that reach this strength become buzzy.

The Fun Factory Vim’s 5 preset power levels provide a gradual journey from gentle to intense. The initial strength of 1.7 out of 10 provides an enjoyable warmup without overstimulating. And steps from one setting to the next are comfortably small.

You can make the transitions even more subtle by holding down the (+) or (-) buttons. This slowly increases or decreases the motor’s power until you release the button. It allows you to access intermediate power levels beyond the Fun Factory Vim’s 5 predetermined settings. Holding the (-) button also allows you to reach an even gentler starting level.

Because the Fun Factory Vim’s power range is wide and gradual, you’ll likely find settings that suit you. The only people who might not be satisfied with the Vim’s power range are those who want as much intensity as possible. If that’s you, consider the Doxy Die Cast or BMS PalmPower Extreme, but most people will not need more power than the Vim offers.


Vibrations: Frequency (Rumbliness)

Power and Frequency Balance 7.7 8.7

We rate wands with rumbly vibrations higher than those with buzzy vibrations since most people prefer rumbliness. The Magic Wand Rechargeable is one of the most rumbly wands I’ve tested – much rumblier than the Magic Wand Waterproof. While a few wands are more rumbly, they underperform in other aspects.

Three of its four power levels are in the rumbly range, with the first two feeling extremely rumbly! I love these vibrations because they travel deeper into my body without being overwhelming or ticklish, unlike buzzy ones.

Since I typically only use the first three power levels, most of my experiences with the Magic Wand Rechargeable are rumbly. Though if you expect you’ll need the extreme power of the fourth level, the vibrations start to feel more neutral.

Personally, I don’t mind an occasional neutral-feeling vibration. And overall, this wand delivers high-quality rumbly vibrations at an impressive strength.

We rate wands with rumbly vibrations higher than those with buzzy ones because it’s what most people prefer. Rumbly vibrations travel deeper and impact the entire area. But some people like buzzy vibrations that stay near the surface, so consider your preferences!

The Fun Factory Vim has outstanding rumbliness. The heavy weight in its motor creates impactful vibrations without needing to spin as fast as a lighter motor (slower speeds feel more rumbly, and faster speeds feel buzzier).

It reaches a deeper, more rumbly level on its lowest setting than any of my other wands. The first 4 of 5 settings are extremely rumbly. And even the highest power is still moderately rumbly. Most wand vibrators that reach a comparable strength are buzzier.

The Fun Factory Vim is my main wand vibrator recommendation for those who value rumbly vibrations. Although the Lelo Smart Wand 2 and Orion Grande Wand have even lower-frequency vibrations than the Fun Factory Vim, they’re worse wands overall.

If you’re familiar with the We-Vibe Tango X, a small bullet vibrator famous for being super rumbly – the Fun Factory Vim is even more rumbly, while being much stronger!

I also find the Vim’s extreme rumbliness feels particularly enjoyable with my Liberator Axis mount for hands-free stimulation during sex.

The Magic Wand Rechargeable is a larger wand, so it takes a bit more effort to maneuver or leverage than smaller, lighter toys. But overall, it’s very comfortable and easy to use.

The plush silicone head is softer than other wands, making it comfortable when pressed firmly against your body. And the neck is flexible, but solid so I can apply considerable pressure without worry. The wide head is great for broad, diffuse pressure. And rather than the round head many wands have, this wand’s head is cylindrical, creating a lip at the top that I can use for more direct pressure and focused stimulation.

Vibrations only transfer minimally through the handle, primarily on the lower power levels. But since the vibrations are rumbly, I don’t find it uncomfortable or distracting as I do with buzzy wands like the Doxy 3R. On high strengths, the Magic Wand’s handle does an excellent job of dampening the hand vibrations.

The Rechargeable’s controls differ from the Magic Wand Plus’s, since the cordless version offers vibration patterns. One button cycles through four steady power levels, and a separate button cycles through its four patterns. While I prefer a setup with separate buttons to increase and decrease power, it’s not a big deal since there are only 4 power levels to cycle through.

The button placement is good – I don’t accidentally press the buttons. And it’s easy to feel them, so I can make adjustments without looking or disrupting the stimulation.

And since this wand is rechargeable, you won’t have to deal with cords getting in the way – part of why I use it more than the Magic Wand Plus.

The Fun Factory Vim is very comfortable and extremely easy to use, especially for a full-sized wand vibrator.

Although the Vim’s motor is heavy, the overall weight is lighter than most full-sized wands, making it easier to maneuver. The fact that most of the weight is in the Vim’s head helps it naturally press the vibes deeper without needing to leverage the wand as much with your wrists.

The Vim’s handle is slim and covered with a slightly plush, textured silicone, providing a comfortable grip. The Vim’s silicone feels especially luxurious. And the vibrations are not at all distracting in my hands – they travel less into the handle than many other wands this powerful.

The head is fairly firm, which can feel less comfortable when pressing against less fleshy areas (like your pubic bone). But the Vim’s flexible neck helps keep it comfortable despite its firmness. And the wide head (2.4 inches) spreads the contact comfortably over a broad surface area.

The Fun Factory Vim’s controls are excellent and easy to use too.

It turns on and off with a simple press of the button (no need to hold it down like several wands require). But more importantly, it has separate buttons to increase and decrease power. You do not have to cycle through all the settings to return to a previous strength. And if you want more gradual increments between intensity levels, you can hold the (+) or (-) button to change the power slowly.

The only thing that could improve its controls is an additional button to move through the vibration patterns. You change vibration patterns by using the (+) and (-) buttons. Once you’ve reached the top strength, clicking the (+) button again will move you into the vibration patterns. You cannot alter the pattern’s strength since you use the (+) and (-) buttons to change vibration patterns. This is not a big concern since most people rarely use vibration patterns.

You can also use the Fun Factory Vim’s travel lock to keep it from accidentally turning on in storage. Just press and hold the “Fun” and “-” buttons together for 2 seconds to lock it. Hold “Fun” and “+” to unlock.


Use During Sex

Spooning 9.5 9.0
Doggystyle 9.5 10.0
Modified Missionary 9.5 7.4
Cowgirl 8.5 8.0

The Magic Wand Rechargeable is my favorite full-sized wand to use during sex, and I enjoy it in a wide range of positions.

It’s a long wand with a large head, and it’s on the heavier side – all traits you don’t expect to make a great wand for sex. But the rumbly, powerful vibrations and plush, cylindrical head make it work very well.

With my weaker vibrators, I spend more time precisely positioning the toy and leveraging it to get the pressure just right. But since the Magic Wand Rechargeable is extremely powerful and rumbly, I don’t need to place the head in an exact spot with tons of pressure, so its large head isn’t an issue. Its length also makes it easier to use in positions like Doggystyle where I can rest the base against the bed so my arm doesn’t get tired.

The silicone head’s plushness keeps it comfortable, even in movement-heavy positions like Cowgirl. Whereas firm wands like the Satisfyer Wand-er Woman press uncomfortably into my pubic bone in this position.

The cylindrical head’s lip provides a smaller surface to get the more focused stimulation you could with a small wand too. This lip also fits into tight spaces where a large wand’s full head doesn’t. And in more open positions like Spooning, I can use the flat surface for diffuse, broad stimulation.

Being cordless, you can move around more freely with the Magic Wand Rechargeable too.

The Fun Factory Vim works great during sex. Though it’s larger than I typically prefer during sex, the Vim’s rumbliness allows the vibrations to travel deep into my body in an effective way that’s not overstimulating.

So even though I can’t fit the Vim’s head directly near my clit in face-to-face positions where space is limited, the vibrations are still effective because they travel to my clit anyway!

Spooning and Doggystyle positions with the Vim are awesome! The head comfortably distributes pressure and vibrations, and I can grip the handle at multiple points along the handle for excellent leverage. The long handle is especially useful because you can prop it on the bed in these positions if your arm gets tired.


Noise

Decibels on Low Power 35 dB 35 dB
Decibels on High Power 48.1 dB 43.5 dB

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

The Magic Wand Rechargeable has lower noise levels compared to most other wands with similar power.

For many comparable wands, I can only use the first setting without the vibrations becoming audible. During our tests, my partner couldn’t hear the first two levels from behind a closed bedroom door. And that second power is typically where I finish.

Many will be able to orgasm on these discreet levels. The two extremely powerful top settings were audible in our quiet house, but when I turned on a box fan or played music, my partner couldn’t hear the wand anymore, even on high power. The Rechargeable is also much quieter than the Magic Wand Waterproof – another reason I like the Rechargeable more.

The Magic Wand Waterproof (shown above) is louder than the Magic Wand Rechargeable.

The Rechargeable is a good option if you want strong power and need to remain discreet.

The Fun Factory Vim has excellent noise levels. It’s the best option for those looking to balance power and discretion. Only weaker wand vibrators are quieter than the Fun Factory Vim.

For a wand this powerful, the decibel readings were especially low.

And during our testing, I could use most of the power settings in the bedroom without my partner being able to hear from the other side of the door. My partner could only hear the top level. And even then, my partner noted that he could barely make out the Vim’s sound. The vibrations are so deep that they’re unnoticeable unless you’re trying to listen for it.

Turning on a box fan easily masks the noise if you’re worried.

Since the vibrations are so rumbly, they have an excellent, deep sound that isn’t distracting. So, if you’re easily annoyed by noise, the Vim is a great choice!

Compatibility with Wanda 8.0 10.0

I’ve tested the Magic Wand Rechargeable with both the Liberator Axis and Wanda mounts for hands-free play, and it performs well with each.

The Axis positions the wand at a slight upward angle from horizontal. When lying on your stomach on the Axis, the side of the wand’s head rests on your clit.

The wand’s tall, broad head provides plenty of surface area for easy clitoral contact without needing to be deliberate about positioning my body as I do with small wands. The plush texture of the head makes it comfortable to press against, and the full-sized handle keeps it secured in the mount.

With the Wanda mount, the Magic Wand Rechargeable is held upright at a slight tilt. Shorter wands enable you to fully lower your weight onto the mount and rock back and forth to vary stimulation. But due to its full-sized design, this wand’s head sits too high for that.

Instead, it’s best to rest on your hands and knees. In this Doggystyle position, the wand’s head aligns well with my clit. Or you can straddle the mount on your knees, but you’ll need to keep your body elevated. In either position, the Magic Wand Rechargeable’s broad, plush head maintains good contact with my clit and provides excellent stimulation.

The Fun Factory Vim has outstanding compatibility with Liberator’s wand mounts for hands-free play. I test all my wands with the Liberator Axis and Wanda mounts. Both work very well with the Vim.

The Axis holds your wand while you lie across the mount on your stomach. I like using the Axis to hold my wand to my clit during sex while my partner penetrates from behind. The Axis grips the Vim’s handle firmly, keeping it securely in place.

And although curved or angled wands (like the BMS PalmPower Extreme) contact my clit more firmly, the Vim still maintains great clitoral contact and stimulates well. At 2.4 inches, the Vim’s head is one of the widest, which helps it reach my clit easily. And the exceptional rumbliness is a huge bonus during hands-free use. The rumbly vibrations travel deep and stimulate my clit even if the head is positioned away from my clit.

The Fun Factory Vim works even better with the Liberator Wanda because you have more variety. If you press the handle down far enough, you can enjoy the vibrations while fully sitting on the Wanda mount, which I love during alone time. Or you can position it farther up in the mount and straddle it on your hands and knees, which works great for hands-free stimulation during penetration from behind with a partner.

The Magic Wand Rechargeable has one of the longest battery lives of any rechargeable wand I’ve tested. It lasted over 4 hours continuously running on its maximum power during our tests.

This is ideal for someone like me, who forgets to charge their wand between uses. Even better, you can use the Magic Wand Rechargeable while it’s plugged in, so you never have to wait for its battery to charge. Note, this feature is not possible with the Magic Wand Waterproof. Only a couple other wands, like the Maia Nala and Le Wand Rechargeable, have this feature, but the Magic Wand Rechargeable is better overall than these wands.

The Fun Factory Vim is rechargeable and has good battery life. During our testing, it lasted about an hour and a half, continuously vibrating on its maximum power. Since it’s such a powerful wand, it’s also likely that you’ll use its lower and middle levels quite a bit. So your actual runtime will likely be longer.


Build Quality


Build Quality Rating 9.5 10.0

The Magic Wand Rechargeable is well-built and feels sturdy. I can apply firm pressure without feeling like I may damage the wand’s neck. Its head is a plush silicone which makes it very comfortable and body-safe: it is non-porous and can be completely sanitized. The older model (the Magic Wand Original) had a porous vinyl head which can harbor bacteria – this is one of many reasons I recommend the Magic Wand Rechargeable and Plus over the Magic Wand Original.

The handle is a solid plastic and the buttons are well-placed and made of a comfortable, grippy silicone. All around, a quality toy.

The Fun Factory Vim has outstanding build quality and feels exceptionally luxurious. The silicone is slightly plush, grippy, and textured – all of which feel comfortable and luxurious.

The solid weight of the motor makes it feel durable. The head is also heavier than the handle, so it naturally tips the wand down at the angle you want. The Vim seems very solid, and the flexibility in the neck is the perfect amount to keep it comfortable without feeling like it will break when I press firmly.

The Magic Wand Rechargeable does not have a waterproof rating, and should only be cleaned with a damp cloth, taking care not to expose electronic components to water. There is a Waterproof version of the Magic Wand if that’s a priority for you. However, the Magic Wand Waterproof underperforms in some areas – it’s much louder and buzzier, at a much higher price. If waterproof play is not a top priority, the Magic Wand Rechargeable is a better fit for most.
