What are the clitoral nubs on a vibrator for? Most realistic vibrators stimulate only internally. Clitoral nubs are small raised bumps near the base of the shaft. When the vibrator is fully inserted, they rest against the clitoris and pass the vibration on to it, so you get external stimulation at the same moment as internal. They work best when you hold the toy deep and rock it gently instead of thrusting. On The Banger the motor sits near the tip for deep vibration, and the nubs add contact at the outside.
Glow Dicks The Banger: a vibrator that glows
The Banger is a realistic vibrator from the Glow Dicks line that glows in the dark. The text describes it as an 8 inch vibrator, with 6.7 inches insertable. It has a tapered head and a thin shaft for comfortable insertion, plus clitoral nubs at the base. The motor is placed near the tip, and a twist dial at the base sets the speed.
It is made of soft, body safe PVC without latex, phthalates or chemical fragrances. The store's product information lists it as waterproof. It runs on AA batteries, which are not included. Have batteries ready before first use, as none come in the pack.
Best for: A playful option for anyone who wants a slim, easy-to-insert realistic vibrator with something extra for the lights-off moments. The thin shaft and tapered head are friendly to beginners, and the dial makes it simple to find the right strength.

How to use
Hold the vibrator under a bright light for a few minutes to charge the glow. Unscrew the base, fit the AA batteries as marked inside the compartment, and close the cap tightly. Apply water-based lubricant to the shaft. Turn the dial slightly to start on a low speed. Insert the tapered head first and go as deep as is comfortable. When fully inserted, tilt the toy so the nubs rest against the clitoris. Turn the dial further for stronger vibration. Turn it back until the motor stops, then wash and dry the vibrator.
Care
- Use water-based lubricant; avoid oil-based products, which can break down PVC.
- Wash with warm water and mild soap before and after use, with the battery cap closed tight.
- Never boil it or put it in a dishwasher, because it contains a motor.
- Dry it fully and remove the batteries before storing.
- Store it on its own, as PVC can react with other toy materials.

Frequently asked questions
How do I make it glow?
Expose it to light before use. A few minutes under a lamp or in daylight is the usual way to charge glow in the dark material. Then switch off the lights. The sources do not state how long the glow lasts.
How big is The Banger?
The description gives 8 inches in length with 6.7 inches insertable. No width is published, but the maker describes a thin shaft and a tapered head designed for easy, comfortable insertion, so it is on the slimmer side.
What batteries does it need?
It takes AA batteries, which are not included. Our two sources disagree on whether it needs one or two, so check the battery compartment when it arrives. Remove the batteries if you store the vibrator for a long time.
Is it waterproof?
The store's product information lists it as waterproof. Make sure the dial cap is screwed on firmly before it gets wet, and dry the cap and threads afterward so that no moisture stays near the batteries.
How is The Banger different from the Molly Glitter Vibrator?
The Banger is PVC, glows in the dark and has clitoral nubs with a slim shaft. Molly is TPE with glitter, is 2 inches wide, and lights up in different colors instead of glowing. Both use a twist dial.
