CHICAGO—Brian Sloan, the inventor of the Autoblow 2, a crowdfunded oral sex robot for men, is poised to strike again. The crowdfunding website Indiegogo is now hosting Sloan’s new campaign for Slaphappy which he calls “the Swiss Army Knife of vibrators.”
The campaign features an infomercial style pitch video in which he extolls the virtues of the new flat flexible vibrator and compares it with regular rigid vibrators, which he says, are for “rigid people.”
After raising nearly $300,000 on Indiegogo to create the Autoblow 2, Sloan received numerous requests from women asking him to build something equally unique and functional for them. Many emails mentioned that different feelings required different toys—meaning women had to own a drawer full of vibrators to experience the full range of possible sensations.
“After reading their emails, the style of toy I needed to invent became clear. Women wanted a single vibrator that could quickly change its shape,” said Sloan. “Plus, with the whole Fifty Shades of Grey craze going on, I thought why not also make it something people could be spanked with. Most couples enjoy a bit of spanking so I decided to make the first vibrator that could also be used as a spanking implement.”
Slaphappy will retail for $65 when it launches in the spring. Indiegogo backers, though, can pick it up for a lot less and delivery is guaranteed by Valentine’s Day. As the inventor notes in his pitch video, “Guys, she can’t f*ck herself with flowers.”
