VeDo Kiwi Review
Overall
Wearing Around
Solo Use In Bed
Long-Distance Play
Pros
- The most rumbly G-spot egg I've tested
- Slim shape is more comfortable
- Stays put through every activity tier, from bed to walking and stairs to jumping and squats
- Very quiet vibrations
- The cheapest egg vibrator with very stimulating vibrations
Cons
- No app - controlled only via the included remote, so not for those who want long-distance partner play
- Shortest range of any egg-vibrator remote I've tested - about 16 feet, fine for nearby same-room use but not for partner control across the house
- Short battery for a long session - 75 minutes on highest power, below the higher-end G-spot eggs
- Splashproof only, with no confirmed IPX rating - not safe to submerge
Table of Contents
The VeDO Kiwi is an affordable, remote-controlled egg vibrator – designed for solo hands-free G-spot stimulation in bed or while wearing it around. It’s one of two VeDO wearables I’ve tested, alongside the VeDO Niki – a rumbly panty vibrator for clit stimulation.
Most insertable eggs are wider and more bulbous for more G-spot pressure, but the Kiwi is slimmer for more comfort. An external pull-cord makes the toy easy to retrieve. It has six power levels and nine vibration patterns. The body is smooth silicone with a small plastic ring at the back where the pull-cord unscrews to reveal the charging port; it’s rechargeable via a USB charging cable. VeDO lists the Kiwi as “splashproof” but doesn’t publish a specific IPX rating, so we don’t recommend submerging it.

The VeDO Kiwi is one of the best-value egg vibrators if you want deep, rumbly G-spot stimulation with a physical remote. Its rumbliness is even deeper than pricier eggs like the Lovense Lush 4 and We-Vibe Jive 2, and it far outperforms other affordable eggs like the NS Novelties Techno Rave. It’s the cheapest egg I’ve tested that delivers genuinely rich, full-feeling internal stimulation.
The trade-off is that several pricier eggs have even more power and longer control range. The Lovense Lush 4, Lovense Lush Mini, and We-Vibe Jive 2 all reach farther than the Kiwi’s short-range remote and offer stronger top settings, though they feel a bit less rumbly. The Lush 4 and Jive 2 also apply firmer G-spot pressure, while the Lush Mini is better if comfort is your priority.
Like all egg vibrators, the Kiwi is designed for hands-free G-spot stimulation. For hands-free clit stimulation, see our recommendations for the best panty vibrators.

Clit Stimulation: Main Takeaways
Like all egg vibrators, the VeDo Kiwi only stimulates your G-spot – not your clit. For clit stimulation, a panty vibrator is the better type of wearable for you. See all our recommendations for the best panty vibrators here.
An egg vibrator is a good option if:
- You enjoy internal vibrations, G-spot pressure, or fullness on its own. (Many people need clit stimulation to orgasm, but internal stimulation can still feel good and be great foreplay.)
- You plan to pair it with clit stimulation from something else.
I can’t orgasm even with our strongest G-spot vibrator alone, but when I pair it with clitoral stimulation, it makes my orgasms feel more full.
G-spot Stimulation: Main Takeaways
In the next sections, I’ll cover the VeDO Kiwi’s vibration power and rumbliness in-depth.
Here’s the main conclusion:
The VeDO Kiwi is very stimulating. It’s the most rumbly egg vibrator and very strong.
If you value power and more G-spot pressure, a few pricier eggs have a bit more strength and a shape that presses more into your G-spot, such as the Lovense Lush 4 (app-controlled) and We-Vibe Jive 2 (mostly remote-controlled). If you care more about rumbliness, the Kiwi is better.
G-spot Vibrations: Power, Range, and Transfer Effectiveness
The VeDO Kiwi is a very strong egg vibrator, reaching a top power of 8.0 out of 10. Its vibrations are also unusually deep and rumbly, so that strength feels rich, full, and impactful.
It has six power levels with a wide range, starting at a gentle 1.0 for warmup and building to its strong top setting.
The Kiwi doesn’t press as directly into my G-spot as contoured eggs like the Lovense Lush 4 or We-Vibe Jive 2. Its slimmer, cylindrical shape spreads the vibrations along more of the front wall instead of targeting one precise spot. But because the vibrations are so deep and rumbly, they still transfer well and feel very stimulating.
The Lush 4 and Jive 2 offer more targeted G-spot pressure, and are stronger overall. But the Kiwi has plenty of power for most people – especially at roughly half the price.
G-spot Vibrations: Frequency (Rumbliness)
Frequency on Low Power: 30.5 Hz (Extremely Rumbly)
Median Frequency: 46.3 Hz (Extremely Rumbly)
Frequency on High Power: 69.2 Hz (Moderately Rumbly)
The VeDO Kiwi has the most rumbly vibrations of any wearable vibrator I’ve tested.
For G-spot stimulation, rumbly vibrations matter more than they do for clitoral. With clit vibrators, you’re placing the vibe directly on a highly sensitive area. But G-spot vibrations have to travel farther through tissue to reach more nerve-rich regions, and lower-frequency rumbly vibrations travel through your body much more effectively.
The Kiwi’s vibrations remain rumbly throughout its full power range. Most of the settings are extremely rumbly. And even the top setting, where most egg vibrators cross into buzzy territory, including the pricier Lovense Lush 4 and We-Vibe Jive 2, measures 69.24 Hz, which is moderately rumbly. Vibrators always become buzzier as you turn them up, but the Kiwi never crosses into the buzzy range.
The deep rumbliness combined with the Kiwi’s strong power makes for impactful stimulation.
App Control: Main Takeaways
The VeDo Kiwi isn’t controlled through an app. App control lets you create custom patterns, control multiple motors or toys, play long-distance, and lets a controlling partner see exactly what your toy is doing. If that matters to you, see our app-controlled recommendations in these guides:
- best remote and app-controlled vibrators (all types of vibrators)
- best wearable vibrators (wearables only).
Remote Control: Main Takeaways
In the next sections, I’ll cover the VeDO Kiwi’s remote features and connectivity.
Here’s the main conclusion:
The Kiwi’s remote is great for solo use or same-room partnered control, with great intensity controls and a reliable connection, even through body interference. The only downside is its short connection range at about 16 ft.
If you need longer range with a physical remote for across-the-room play, consider the We-Vibe Jive 2. Or if you’re okay with an app instead, try the Lovense Lush 4. If you don’t need a longer range, the Kiwi’s remote is excellent.
Remote Control: Features
Vibration Power Control Method: Dedicated +/- Buttons (Clickable)
Vibration Pattern Control Method: Single Button Cycle Loop (Dedicated)
Can Adjust Pattern Intensity? Yes
Partner Feedback: Input Confirmation Only (Blink / Pulse)
Remote Power Source: (1) CR2032
The VeDO Kiwi’s remote features are great with a few minor downsides – most of which are typical of remotes compared to apps.
Power control is fast and direct – you can move forward and backward through the six power levels with dedicated + and – buttons.
Pattern navigation uses a single-button cycle loop – clicking through the ten patterns one at a time, with no way to go backward to a previous pattern. In practice this doesn’t matter that much, since most people stay on steady vibrations rather than cycling through patterns. You can also adjust the intensity of each pattern.
The remote is comfortable to hold, but the buttons are less raised than the best remotes. So I can’t easily tell which button is which by feel like I can with some, like the We-Vibe Jive 2‘s remote. That’s something you get used to as you use it more.
Like most remotes, the Kiwi’s gives your partner just a faint blink when you press a button – no way to tell what setting your toy is on or whether the vibrations actually changed. That’s fine if you’re using the Kiwi yourself and many partners won’t mind.
Others find it less engaging when they can’t tell what your toy is doing and what you’re actually feeling. App control gives your partner real-time visuals of the toy’s vibrations, which makes controlling it feel more engaging. If that’s a priority for you, try the Lovense Lush 4. Or Lush Mini if you prefer slimmer toys.
Remote Control: Connectivity
Light Interference Position: Stable
Moderate Interference Position: Stable
Heavy Interference Position: Stable
Perceived Delay: Barely Perceptible
Typical Reconnection Workflow: Instant/Automatic
Max Remote Range: 16 ft
The VeDO Kiwi’s remote connectivity is excellent and reliable as long as your partner is close-by.
Body tissue between a remote and toy is typically the main thing that breaks a remote’s signal during partner control, but the Kiwi holds up well to this. Our body-interference test simulates this scenario at three progressively challenging angles, and the Kiwi holds a stable connection through all of them. Our test runs harsher than typical real-world conditions, so partner-controlled play should stay reliable in practice.
Button presses register with barely any delay – the toy reacts the moment my finger leaves the button, keeping the rhythm of play intact. And theres no reconnection routine required when starting to play – the remote is always connected.
The remote reached 16 feet in our open-air range test – measured with clear line-of-sight and no body interference – which is the shortest range of my wearable vibrators. That’s still enough to comfortably cover typical nearby same-room partnered control or solo use. But across-the-room play is trickier.
If you want a longer remote range without switching to apps, the We-Vibe Jive 2 reached about 125 feet in the same test – roughly eight times the Kiwi’s range. And if you’re okay with app control instead, the Lovense Lush 4 reached 345 feet or can connect over the internet, so distance stops being a factor.
On-Toy Controls
Vibration Power Control Method: Single Button Cycle Loop (Shared)
Vibration Pattern Control Method: Single Button Cycle Loop (Shared)
Can Adjust Pattern Intensity? No
Like most insertable eggs, the Kiwi’s on-toy controls are limited – but even moreso than most. Its single button is on the egg body itself, which means it’s inaccessible when wearing the toy. If you want to adjust it during wear, the remote is the only option. This also means you have to turn it on before inserting.
When you do use the on-toy button, it cycles through one steady vibration and nine patterns at a single fixed power level. To adjust the vibration power, you have to use the remote control.
That said, the button is more usable if you’re holding the Kiwi externally and using it like a bullet vibrator for clit stimulation. While the one-button cycling controls aren’t ideal, they’re good enough for occasional external use.
Secure Fit & Adjustability
Adjustment Type: None
Shape Degrees of Freedom: 0
The VeDO Kiwi has a great secure fit, staying put at any activity level.
That’s typical for an egg vibrator. Once the toy is fully inserted, your own anatomy holds it in place naturally. The kind of secure-fit problems more common with external wearables don’t really apply to eggs. Most of the eggs I’ve tested fit just as solidly across every activity tier.
Comfort
The VeDO Kiwi is very comfortable.
It’s cylindrical shape is slimmer than bulbous eggs like the Lovense Lush 4 and We-Vibe Jive 2, which makes it easy to insert and avoids the extra pressure against my bladder that those bulbous eggs can produce. I’m able to wear this one longer than wider eggs without becoming uncomfortable.
Lying in bed I can feel a faint tingle from the vibrations traveling into the pull-string, but I don’t find it distracting.
During light activity – walking around the house, going up and down stairs – I notice a little pressure at the inside of the vaginal entrance since this egg is a little taller than some, but nothing distracting. And the pull-string is hardly noticeable when held tight to my body by clothing.
If maximum comfort is a priority, the Lovense Lush Mini is even more comfortable because it’s shorter and the bulb sits a bit higher up in the vagina. But most people will be happy with the Kiwi’s comfort.

Loud (68 dBA) - High Power: Inaudible
Low Power: Inaudible
Middle Power: Inaudible
High Power: Audible
High Power with Box Fan: Inaudible
High Power with Music: Inaudible
The Kiwi is a very quiet egg vibrator.
Decibel readings on low power were too quiet for our sound level meter to pick up above the room’s 35 dBA ambient noise. On high, the Kiwi reached about 43 dBA – still quiet overall.
It’s in the most discreet group of wearables I’ve tested for our Background Noise Masking subtest. My partner listens from three feet away while we play pink noise at quiet, moderate, and loud volumes (56, 62, and 68 dBA). He couldn’t hear the Kiwi at any vibration strength under any of the three volumes. It is definitely audible in our room without any background audio playing – but every wearable vibrator I’ve tested is audible in a fully silent room, no matter how gentle and quiet its vibrations are.
For the closed-door test, my partner stands directly outside our bedroom door while I use the Kiwi in bed. I hold it rather than wear it for this subtest, since wearing dampens sound and some people want the flexibility to use it clitorally – holding gives the most conservative results. My partner couldn’t hear it on low or medium power. On high, he could just barely make it out, and only when the house was completely silent – even light ambient sound, like cars passing outside, masked it.
Battery Life
Power Source: Rechargeable
Battery Life on High Power: 75 minutes
Charging Cable: Round Plug
The Kiwi’s battery life is decent. It lasted 75 minutes running continuously at its highest power in our test, which is shorter than many higher-end G-spot eggs. Since most people won’t use the highest setting the entire time, real-use runtime will likely be longer.
If battery life is a priority, the Lovense Lush 4 lasted about 120 minutes in our test – roughly 60% longer than the Kiwi, but at about twice the price. The Svakom Phoenix Neo 2 lasted much longer at about 258 minutes, more than three times the Kiwi’s runtime, while staying in a similar price range, but it’s worse overall.
Cleaning
Waterproof Rating: Unknown
Cleaning the Kiwi is simple in practice, but I rated it conservatively because I couldn’t confirm its exact waterproof rating. VeDO lists it as “splashproof,” which usually means IPX5 or IPX6 – safe to rinse under a faucet – but can also mean IPX4, which is not faucet-safe. I emailed VeDO to confirm the rating and didn’t hear back, so I scored it as if it should not be rinsed directly.
In real use, I do rinse most of the Kiwi under the faucet while keeping water away from the charging port. Lube and debris can collect at the pull-cord/charging port seam over time, so I periodically unscrew it and clean inside with a damp cloth.
Build Quality
The Kiwi feels well-built overall, and I’ve had it since 2022. It has smooth, firm silicone with a small plastic ring where the pull cord attaches, which unscrews to reveal the charging port. The seam feels tight when closed, but lube and debris can still collect there, so it needs occasional detailed cleaning.
The pull cord is a slim, slightly stretchy loop that has held up well. The toy and remote buttons are easy to press with a clear click, and while the plastic remote feels very lightweight and cheap, it works reliably.

Review Results
The VeDO Kiwi is the most rumbly G-spot egg I’ve tested and an excellent value. If you want deep, rumbly G-spot stimulation in something slim and comfortable, and you’ll be controlling it yourself or sharing with a same-room partner, the Kiwi is a great pick. Top power is substantial but not the strongest egg I’ve tested.
If you want app control, longer remote range, or even stronger vibrations, see my alternatives below.
Compare Alternatives
Lovense Lush 4
The Lovense Lush 4 and VeDO Kiwi are both strong G-spot egg vibrators, but they differ on control style, vibration feel, and comfort. Choose the Lush 4 if you want the best app experience, long-distance partner control, and the strongest, most targeted G-spot pressure. Choose the Kiwi if you want a simpler physical remote, a slimmer fit, deeper rumbliness, and a lower price.
The Lush 4 reaches a top vibration power of 10 out of 10, while the Kiwi reaches 8. The Lush’s contoured bulb also presses that strength more directly into my G-spot, creating a fuller, more focused pressure than the Kiwi’s slimmer cylindrical shape. Lovense’s app is the other major advantage: it gives you continuous intensity control, custom patterns, and reliable long-distance control with video calls and messaging – so you can play with a partner anywhere in the world. When playing nearby, the Bluetooth range reached about 345 feet in our clear line-of-sight test compared to the Kiwi remote’s short range of 16 feet. And the battery lasted 120 minutes on high compared to the Kiwi’s 75 minute life.
The Kiwi’s advantage is rumbliness, comfort, and price. Its vibrations stay rumbly across the full range, even on high power, while the Lush 4 becomes buzzier on its upper settings. The Kiwi’s slimmer shape also avoids some of the fullness and bladder pressure I feel from the Lush 4, so I can wear it longer. It’s more comfortable, but the Lush 4’s girth can feel more stimulating.
Choose the Lovense Lush 4 for app control, long-distance play, stronger targeted G-spot stimulation, and longer battery life. Choose the VeDO Kiwi for deeper rumbliness, better comfort, a physical remote, and better value if same-room control is enough.
Lovense Lush Mini
The Lovense Lush Mini and VeDO Kiwi are both slim, comfortable G-spot eggs, but they differ on control style and vibration feel. Choose the Lush Mini if you want outstanding app control, long-distance partner control, stronger vibrations, and more targeted G-spot pressure. Choose the Kiwi if you want a physical remote, deeper rumbliness, and a much lower price.
The Lush Mini reaches 9.5 out of 10 on top power compared with the Kiwi’s 8.0, and its slimmer bulb has a contoured shape that still presses that strength precisely into the G-spot instead of spreading it out more like the Kiwi’s cylindrical shape does. It also gives you Lovense’s excellent app, which is the best app of any brand: continuous intensity control, custom patterns, sound and music modes, video calls, messaging, and partner control from anywhere in the world. Even it’s nearby range over Bluetooth is much longer than the Kiwi’s, with about 365 feet in our clear line-of-sight test compared with the Kiwi remote’s 16 feet.
The Kiwi’s advantage is rumbliness, simplicity, and price. Its vibrations are the most rumbly of any wearable I’ve tested, staying deep through the whole power range, and it is about $65 cheaper. Its six-level remote is easy for solo or same-room partner control, though you can’t do app or long-distance play. Battery life is close between the two: 65 minutes for the Lush Mini and 75 minutes for the Kiwi on high power in our test.
Choose the Lovense Lush Mini for stronger stimulation, app control, long-distance play, and more targeted G-spot pressure. Choose the VeDO Kiwi for the deepest rumble, a simple physical remote, and better value if same-room control is enough.
We-Vibe Jive 2
The VeDO Kiwi and We-Vibe Jive 2 are the two remote-controlled G-spot eggs I would choose between. The Kiwi is better if you want deeper rumbliness, more comfort, and a much lower price. The Jive 2 is better if you want stronger, more targeted G-spot pressure and a better physical remote, especially for a longer connection range.
The Kiwi’s main advantage is vibration feel. It is the most rumbly egg vibrator I’ve tested, staying rumbly even on its top setting at 69 Hz. It reaches 8.0 out of 10 on top power across six levels, and its slimmer cylindrical shape is easier for me to wear comfortably for a long time than wider, more bulbous eggs like the Jive 2. The tradeoff is remote control range and battery life: its remote reached about 16 feet in our clear line-of-sight test compared to the Jive 2’s 125 foot remote range. And its battery lasted 75 minutes on high compared to the Jive 2’s 165 minutes.
The Jive 2 is less rumbly than the Kiwi, but it gives stronger and more targeted G-spot stimulation. Its contoured bump presses more directly into my G-spot, it reaches 9.0 out of 10 on top power, and its remote gives you 15 intensity levels for a more gradual build. While technically the Jive 2 also has an app, it’s best to consider it a purely remote-controlled egg. We-Vibe’s app is buggy and unreliable – controls freeze, you can’t use the toy’s full power range, and you often can’t start long-distance sessions. But both toys’ remotes work reliably.
Choose the VeDO Kiwi for affordable, comfortable, deeply rumbly same-room remote control. Choose the We-Vibe Jive 2 for stronger targeted G-spot pressure, much longer remote range, and longer battery life.
Lovense Lush 3
The Lovense Lush 3 and VeDO Kiwi are both strong G-spot egg vibrators, that differ mainly in control style and vibration feel. Choose the Lush 3 if you want Lovense’s excellent app, long-distance partner control, and stronger targeted G-spot pressure. Choose the Kiwi if you want a cheaper, slimmer, quieter egg with a physical remote and the most rumbly vibrations I’ve tested in a wearable.
The Lush 3 is the more powerful and more focused option. Its contoured bulb presses firmly into my G-spot and reaches a 10 out of 10 top power, while the Kiwi reaches 8 out of 10 and has a slimmer cylindrical shape that spreads the vibrations along more of the front wall – not as targeted to the G-spot. The Kiwi’s advantage is vibration quality: it stays unusually deep and rumbly across its power range, while the Lush 3 gets buzzier on high.
Controls are the other major difference. The Lush 3 uses the Lovense app, which gives you precise intensity control, custom patterns, and long-distance control over the internet with video calls and messaging. Its Bluetooth range reached about 130 feet in our clear line-of-sight test. The Kiwi’s remote is simpler and phone-free, with dedicated + and – buttons, but it only reached about 16 feet so it’s best for solo or same-room partner control.
The Kiwi is the more comfortable and quiet egg: its slimmer shape creates less bladder pressure, and it measured about 43 dBA on high compared with the Lush 3’s 49 dBA. The Lush 3 lasts much longer, though, running about 135 minutes on high compared with the Kiwi’s 75 minutes, and it is IPX7 waterproof while the Kiwi is only listed as splashproof. Choose the Lovense Lush 3 for app control, long-distance play, stronger G-spot stimulating, and battery life. Choose the VeDO Kiwi for deeper rumbliness, comfort, quietness, value, and a simple physical remote.
We-Vibe Jive Lite
The VeDO Kiwi is a far better G-spot egg than the We-Vibe Jive Lite. It provides stronger, more rumbly stimulation and more dependable control at a lower price. The Jive Lite is longer-lasting, but its weaker motor and unreliable app make it not worth considering. If you want a slim app-controlled egg, the Lovense Lush Mini is a better option to consider.
The Kiwi reaches 8.0 out of 10 across six power levels and remains exceptionally rumbly even on high. Its bulb also presses more firmly into my G-spot. The Jive Lite reaches only 5.0 out of 10 from its on-toy button (and about 4.25 through the app) while its flatter shape applies less focused pressure. So the Kiwi is just more stimulating. Both eggs are very quiet.
The Kiwi’s remote provides simple, reliable control, though its 16-foot range in our test limits it to solo or same-room partner play. The Jive Lite offers app and long-distance control, but the app frequently freezes, misses commands, limits the toy’s maximum power, and fails to start long-distance sessions. While the Jive 2 has a remote control you can use, the Jive Lite does not – so you’re forced to use the frustrating app. It lasted 125 minutes on high compared with the Kiwi’s 75 minutes, but a few minor advantages do not compensate for weaker stimulation and unreliable controls. Choose the Kiwi for strong, rumbly G-spot stimulation and dependable remote control. If you want app or long-distance control, choose a better app-controlled egg instead like the Lovense Lush Mini.
NS Novelties Techno Rave
The NS Novelties Techno Rave and VeDO Kiwi are both quiet, budget-friendly G-spot eggs. The Kiwi is more stimulating and better overall, but the choice also comes down to whether you prefer an app or physical remote.
The Kiwi is much better for G-spot stimulation. It reaches 8.0 out of 10 strength on its top power, starts gently at 1.0, and stays unusually rumbly even on high, measuring 69.24 Hz at its strongest setting. The Techno Rave reaches a decent 7 out of 10 strength, but all three steady levels sit close together and are buzzy, so they don’t feel as effective on your G-spot. The Kiwi also gives you six steady levels instead of the Rave’s three.
The Rave’s advantage is mainly if you prefer app control over a physical remote. Its Love Spouse app is basic, cluttered with ads, and limited to simply selecting preset levels and patterns – but it does work, has reliable connectivity, and gives you the ability to play with a long-distance partner. It also has excellent Bluetooth range for nearby control, reaching about 325 feet in our clear line-of-sight test. The Kiwi’s remote is simpler but it’s best for solo or same-room partner control, since it reached only about 16 feet in our test. The Rave also lasted longer on high power, 95 minutes compared with the Kiwi’s 75.
Choose the NS Novelties Techno Rave for the cheapest workable app-controlled egg and longer battery life. Choose the VeDO Kiwi for deeper, stronger G-spot stimulation, a better power range, and a simple physical remote if same-room control is enough.
Lovense Vulse
The VeDO Kiwi is the better choice for people who want an egg vibrator that’s easy to wear around. It has much stronger, deeper vibrations, runs more quietly, costs less, and since there’s no motion, it’s easier to wear while walking. Choose the Lovense Vulse if you want a toy that stimulates internally through repeated pressure, and are okay with mostly using it in bed.
The Kiwi’s vibrations are better than the Vulse’s. Its motor ranges from a gentle 1.0 to a strong 8.0 out of 10 and remains unusually rumbly even on high. The Vulse’s vibrations are weak and buzzy, but that’s okay because it’s meant to stimulate mainly through motion – thrusting back and forth internally. Many people like motion and pressure over vibrations for G-spot toys. Both feel good – they just meet different preferences. Though the Vulse’s thrusting is louder and makes it harder to wear around.
The Vulse is also app controlled whereas the Kiwi is only remote controlled. The Vulse uses the Lovense app (the best app of any brand), which offers continuous intensity control, custom patterns, video calls, messaging, long-distance play, and multi-toy control. The Kiwi instead uses a simple physical remote that works best for solo or same-room partner play and reached about 16 feet in our bluetooth range test compared to the Vulse’s 240 feet (or anywhere in the world using Wi-Fi or cell data). However, the Kiwi is slimmer, more comfortable, quieter, and lasted 75 minutes on high compared with the Vulse’s 60 minutes.
