Founded on medical research and patented across the world, Pulse is one of the most powerful and effective stimulators ever created. Harnessing state-of-the-art oscillating technology, Pulse creates an entirely new category in male and couples vibrators compared with traditional vibrations.
At the heart of Pulse lies the cutting edge PulsePlate, delivering a far more intense experience than vibrators through deep and powerful oscillations. Innovatively designed to also be a fantastic couple’s toy, the underside delivers dual-stimulation, whilst its hands-free design leaves partners free to focus on each other. Not only is the technology impressive, the British-founded Pulse is as beautiful as it is effective. Working with an award-winning London design agency, Pulse is sleek, discreet and stylish in comparison to most male toys on the market.
Pulse recently made mainstream news, with Huffington Post UK calling the remarkable stimulator “genius”: “Why no one has really thought of Pulse is baffling—effectively a vibrating sheath that can be slipped on like a glove…around the penis, whether or not it is erect…we’re sure that this will be creating quite the buzz.”Glamour Magazinefollowed suit, encouraging its female readership to consider Pulse, saying, “Men have had other types of their own (sometimes disturbing) sex toys, but in recent years, the sex-toy industry has added what's being called a guybrator. It's called Pulse … [and] if he's using it when getting intimate…you're going to reap the benefits too. Bonus, ladies.”
To celebrate Masturbation Month, Hot Octopuss has released “Evolution of Masturbation,” a tongue-in-cheek video showing the historical chronology of male masturbation. With starring roles from the everyday gym sock, gentlemen’s magazines, to modern technology, the video aims to demonstrate just how Pulse is revolutionizing the way men think about masturbation.

The U.S. adult novelty market was first introduced to the state-of-the-art sex toy at the International Lingerie Show last fall, and continues to receive high praise from industry colleagues and reviewers alike, resulting in more than 10,000 units sold around the world in the first six months since Pulse's launch.
Worn by him but enjoyed by both, Pulse is the first sex toy on the market that is designed to be both a revolutionary male stimulator and a pioneering couple’s toy to be used during foreplay.
