Why choose a rechargeable bullet over a battery one? Classic bullets run on tiny watch batteries that are costly, fiddly to change and quick to fade, so the vibration weakens as they drain. A rechargeable bullet has a sealed cell that you top up by USB. It holds its strength more evenly, costs nothing to keep running and has no battery cap to lose. For a toy you are likely to reach for often, charging by cord is the more practical option.
Maia Bari: a rechargeable bullet for pinpoint play
Bari is a 10-function mini bullet from Maia. It has an ABS body wrapped in a silicone coating that the maker describes as body safe and soft to the touch. The motor is billed as super-charged, and it runs through 10 vibration patterns. A control button at the end of the bullet changes the setting.
The slim shape is easy to handle and lends itself to more than one use. Bari recharges with the USB cord supplied in the box. Since no water rating is stated, keep it dry and clean it with a damp cloth.
Best for: For people who want a small, uncomplicated vibrator for external stimulation, and for couples who want to add a little vibration during sex. It also makes a low-commitment first toy, since there is only one button to learn.

How to use
Plug Bari in with the USB cord and charge it fully before the first session. Wipe it clean. Switch it on with the end button and keep pressing to move through the 10 patterns. Put a small amount of water-based lubricant on the tip. Rest the tip on the clitoris for sharp, focused vibration, or lay the side against the body for something gentler. It can also be used on the nipples and other external areas. Turn it off, wipe it clean and let it dry afterward.
Care
- Stick to water-based lubricant on the silicone coat.
- Wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild soap; no waterproof rating is stated, so keep it out of water.
- Do not boil it or run it through a dishwasher.
- Recharge with the USB cord after use, once the bullet is dry.
- Store it by itself, away from other silicone toys.
