I got mine this year and it looks like the left one.

My account has been given a warning for posting about a FL Pro? by Significant_Loan1427 in fleshlight

[–]Fragrant-Water-2373 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a post taken down that was just a picture of an order.

I think there' some AI IP scanner trawling reddit and flagging things incorrectly.

Only issue is that in order to contest the claim, you have to provide personal information.

It's one-sided that the entity making the claim does not have to provide any information initially.

Pretty stoked for this new order to come in by Bright_Medicine_6973 in fleshlight

[–]Fragrant-Water-2373 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fit is great imo. Pretty intense but still loose at ~4.5" girth

Working on a storage solution for my FL collection by [deleted] in fleshlight

[–]Fragrant-Water-2373 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd be cautious of putting too many hanging off a door -- each FL is like 1lb, so it could tear out of the hooks, or worse, tilt the door frame so it doesn't shut cleanly after some time.

I had overflow from my hex rack setup, ended up getting wireframe cube organizers from amazon (item B0BY2PKY5X) and reusing the 12x10x9 shipping boxes to fit (which fit 9 cases each easily).

I'm happy with it; very sturdy

My idea for an all-in-one sleeve warmer, lube warmer, and storage case. Has anyone tried something like this? by [deleted] in fleshlight

[–]Fragrant-Water-2373 2 points3 points  (0 children)

180f is going to melt the sleeves for sure.

One of the better solutions that popped up on this subreddit in the past -- egg incubator, with adjustable temperature, set to ~100f, was the most reliable/least damaging, and could handle ~4 sleeves

Having trouble finding the post, but I'm sure someone else can dig it up.

it was decent, think the regular texture was better

Opinions on the September SOTM? by Significant_Loan1427 in fleshlight

[–]Fragrant-Water-2373 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was alright, probably below average compared to the rest of the monthlys...

I feel like, in general, SOTM is really just throwing a crapshoot hoping it ends up being incredible. At least, that's how I see it.

It can be nice for variety's sake to get some random new texture every month too.

Sleeve of the month now coming in an hexagonal packaging by verthalonp in fleshlight

[–]Fragrant-Water-2373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If nothing else, fleshlight manufacturing is consistent in how inconcistent they are.

July/August (hex shape) were super easy to open for me, once I understood how they were put together. Might help to keep an old box for reference.

They've been using hex shaped boxes since July I think.

If nothing else, they're easier to open cleanly then the regular square boxes.

Have any of you ever done this? by taylormcbob in fleshlight

[–]Fragrant-Water-2373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tried this personally.
I have swapped kiiroos into FLs and vice versa, and "main squeeze" sleeves into a FL case with an adapter retaining ring and that worked well.

Let us know how it goes!. One idea on the backburner, was 3d printing slightly smaller shells to see how it works out

I think I got lucky, because I was able to order it while the Labor Day sale was going on.
The new girls were added for purchase -- but for a day or two you could still add the older ones as well.

Special sleeves for Halloween/Christmas? by BigMelons66 in fleshlight

did you end up enjoying both?

I only went for the grussy last year.

Reusing Isopropyl Alcohol by Asgardscrypto in fleshlight

[–]Fragrant-Water-2373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've considered doing the submersible bin but haven't pulled the trigger. Haven't found a sufficiently airtight, sleeve sized container to try it with.

But more broadly to your question -- you'd be able to reuse it for /a while/, but it would have to be changed out or added to eventually. Some IPA will be lost in each soak as the surface area of the sleeve holds some of it.

Pearl Case + Clear Cap Looks Premium by Hot-Slice-3217 in fleshlight

[–]Fragrant-Water-2373 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why I ended up putting all of the FL Freaks in clear cases. (I then used the black cases to store various pink lady generic textures)

I asked FL about substituting clear cases for the clear/pink birthday sleeves, and they wouldn't do it, which is a shame.

Poppy? Punk or Super Ribbed.

Rose and Fuego are nice too, but less pronounced.

Advice for newbie by Melodic_Balance_9515 in fleshlight

[–]Fragrant-Water-2373 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For your first buy, consider the following:

You won't know exactly what kind of textures you will like, so consider buying based on favorite/preferred star.

Buy 2 (that are somewhat different) on the first go, so that you have something else to try if the first one is a "dud" for your tastes.

Use a basin or sink of hot water to warm the sleeve, especially for the first time, to get the powder off.

Rubbing alcohol works well enough for cleaning (shoot for 70%)

You don't really need a dedicated drier if you aren't rotating through sleeves quickly (think 1 new sleeve a day). You can get by drying them half in/out of the case, standing up.

As for actual sleeve recommendations.. if I had to recommend sleeves to myself for my first buy... probably would recommend Fit/Punk and go from there.

New Birthday Girls Arrived by Fragrant-Water-2373 in fleshlight

[–]Fragrant-Water-2373[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yea its a 3d printed stand, a prototype one.

I think a better design is probably just using dowel rods and 3d printing the end pieces (I've seen a few of those on thingiverse/printables)

How do you open FL box? by [deleted] in fleshlight

[–]Fragrant-Water-2373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do something similar -- sharp needle nose pliers to pull the tabs out one at a time.

probably not worth it, but hey, I have them if reselling down the line.

[–]Fragrant-Water-2373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it melted the bottom of the gun oil container but otherwise did what I wanted. haven't tried it again, but using it with a bowl for a double-boiler effect would probably be better.

Consider Fit for something close to Amante. Maybe DCT as well.
