Hueman Black Hole: review

Hueman Black Hole at a glance — this is what you get

Hueman Black Hole is an anal vibrator and a penis ring in the same molded silicone body. The construction is what makes the product interesting: the curved insertion part is directed toward the prostate, a wider section rests against the perineum, and from the same base a narrow arm extends into a ring that is meant to be slipped over the base of the penis. You can’t use the parts separately — it’s a single product with two contact surfaces, and that’s exactly what the manufacturer calls double stimulation in its own product graphics.

The specification looks like this according to the manufacturer’s printed panel on the packaging: ten vibration modes distributed across four speeds and six patterns, insertable length 110 millimeters, total weight 122 grams without the remote control, the materials ABS and silicone, an IPX7 ingress protection rating, and a wireless remote control with an 8-meter range. In Sweden, the item is sold by four stores at prices between 449 and 799 SEK, and all four had it in stock at the price check on September 12, 2026.

This review is about the item with EAN 8719934002692, the manufacturer’s article number HUE010. The number is checked against the brand owner’s own product page and against all four Swedish stores, and there is only one color variant: purple. The name Black Hole refers to Huemans space theme, not the product’s color — the data sheet states the color as purple, and Blush Me writes the same thing in its attribute table. It’s worth knowing before you go looking for a black version that doesn’t exist.

What an anal vibrator with a penis ring actually is

The combination of a penis ring and an anal plug is its own little product class, and it’s based on two completely different modes of operation that just happen to be housed in the same body. The penis ring works mechanically: it grips around the base of the penis and slows venous return, which is the physiological explanation for why an erection feels fuller and lasts longer. The anal part, on the other hand, uses vibration targeted at the prostate gland, which lies a few centimeters inward on the abdominal side of the rectum and is accessible at the insertion depth the product is designed for.

What can be established purely from a construction standpoint is that the coupling solves a practical problem. A standalone anal plug can slip out of position, and a standalone penis ring does nothing for the prostate. Here, the ring keeps the plug in place and the plug keeps the ring in place, which means the whole unit sits still without you having to hold it. The manufacturer’s own user manual graphic describes the sequence: lubricant on the ring, the ring over the base of the penis in the flaccid state, then the insertion part slowly and with lubricant.

The back side of the same construction is that you can’t adjust the parts independently of each other. The distance between the ring and the plug is molded in once and for all. If the geometry fits your anatomy, the product sits well; if it doesn’t, there’s nothing to set up. It’s the single most important question to ask yourself in this product category, and it can’t be solved with specifications—only with measurements, which is why the measurements section further down is the most important part of the entire text.

Black Hole, Uranus, or Stellar Force— which Hueman is which?

Hueman is a house brand of the Dutch wholesaler ONE-DC, formerly EDC Wholesale, and the entire range is named after space objects. Three models are so close to each other that they’re regularly mixed up in Swedish retailers’ search results.

• Black Hole — the model this text is about. Article number HUE010, EAN 8719934002692. Anal vibrator with a fixed penis ring, ten vibration modes, remote control.
• Uranus — item number HUE009, EAN 8719934002685. A pure anal vibrator from the same series, without a penis ring. The number is directly before Black Hole in the manufacturer’s register, which is exactly the kind of closeness that causes the wrong item to end up in the shopping cart.
• Stellar Force — item number HUE021, EAN 8719934022294. Also an anal plug with a penis ring, but with both vibration and rotation in ten modes. The manufacturer states an insertion depth of 10 centimeters and a maximum diameter of 3.4 centimeters, so it’s somewhat shorter and insignificantly thicker than Black Hole.

The difference between Black Hole and Stellar Force is therefore not the number of modes—both are listed as ten—but what the modes do. Black Hole vibrates. Stellar Force vibrates and rotates. If you want the simpler, more predictable function, Black Hole is the right model, and it’s also the one of the two that’s sold the most widely in Sweden.

Materials and build quality: silicone on the outside, ABS on the inside

The material question is the only property of an intimate product that can’t be compensated for with experience or care, and on an anal product it weighs more heavily than anywhere else in the range. The manufacturer lists two materials on the packaging’s specification panel: ABS and silicone. The same two materials are shown in the manufacturer’s product graphics, in ONE-DC’s datasheets, and at Joyland.

What silicone means for hygiene

Silicone is a non-porous material. A non-porous surface can be cleaned, because there are no microscopic cavities where residue can get trapped. That’s the single most important property of a material that’s meant to come into contact with mucous membranes, and that’s why the material declaration carries more weight than almost all other lines in a specification. ABS is also non-porous, but hard—it’s used in this product category for the motor housing, buttons, and electronics, not for contact surfaces.

The manufacturer does not say where exactly the boundary between the two materials lies. What can be established, however, is that the manufacturer’s own close-up images show a consistent silicone surface over the entire molded body, including the inserted part, the perineum section, and the ring, with a recessed metallized section on the underside where the button sits. Blush Me and Vuxen summarize the material as only skin-friendly silicone, while Joyland and the manufacturer write ABS and silicone. The contradiction is apparent: the stores describe the surface, the manufacturer describes the entire product. Assume that everything you touch is silicone and that ABS is inside.

A detail in the construction is worth its own section, because it is a genuine advantage over the competitors: there is no seam between a silicone-covered tip and a plastic shaft. The entire body is a single molded unit. On products where a silicone-covered tip is mounted on a plastic shaft, that seam is where residue collects and where the material ultimately gives way. That problem source does not exist in this geometry.

Phthalates, BPA, and latex — what is declared and what is not

Phthalates are a group of plasticizers used to make plastic, especially soft PVC, flexible. The Swedish Chemicals Agency (Kemikalieinspektionen) describes them as substances that can affect the hormonal system and make reproduction more difficult, and several of them are therefore restricted or banned within the EU in a large number of products. This particular product category is a recurring subject of supervision because it contains soft, molded plastic against skin and mucous membranes.

The answer has to be two-part. The manufacturer itself does not publish any declaration about phthalates, BPA, or latex — neither on the product page, on the packaging panel, nor in the product graphics. Two of the four Swedish stores do it instead: Blush Me and Vuxen write that the product is made of phthalate-free and skin-friendly silicone and ABS plastic, and Joyland has its own field "Phthalate-free: Yes". These are store details, not manufacturer details, and they should be read as such.

What can still be said is that silicone does not require phthalate plasticizers to become soft—the softness comes from the polymer’s own structure. A material specification for silicone is therefore, in itself, better information than labels such as "TPE" or "jelly rubber," which do not say anything at all about which plasticizers are included. But an explicit material declaration from the manufacturer would have been better than three stores’ words, and that is a line that is missing from Hueman’s documentation.

Measurements: 14.3 cm total, 11 cm insertable, and 3.3 cm at the widest

The measurements are the most important line in this specification, and they are unusually well supported. Four independent sources state the same three values: total length 14.30 centimeters, insertable length 11.00 centimeters, and maximum diameter 3.30 centimeters. It’s Blush Me, Joyland, Vuxen, and ONE-DC’s own datasheet as presented by Sabina and High Level Toys, with Geizhals’ datasheet entry as a fifth confirmation. The insert measurement of 110 millimeters is also printed on the manufacturer’s own packaging, on the narrow side of the cardboard.

Two more measurements belong in the picture and are only published in the datasheet: the width 10.80 centimeters, meaning the full product extent including the ring, and the inner diameter 3.60 centimeters, which is the penis ring’s inner measurement. The latter deserves a warning. Mshop lists 3.6 centimeters in the “Diameter” and “Insertable diameter” fields, as if it were the thickness of the insert part. Three other shops and the manufacturer’s own datasheet state 3.3 centimeters for the insert part and 3.6 centimeters for the ring’s inner measurement. If you want to know how thick the plug is, you have to calculate with 3.3 centimeters.

What does that mean in practice? The insert depth of 11 centimeters is noticeably longer than on prostate products that are designed solely to reach the gland—Lelo lists an insertable length of 72 millimeters for the Hugo 2, which is almost four centimeters less. The thickness of 3.3 centimeters corresponds to a circumference of about ten centimeters and falls in the middle range: it’s thicker than a beginner plug, but far from the thick models. The combination of length and medium thickness means that Black Hole reasonably assumes some experience, and the manufacturer’s own datasheet also marks the user level as “expert” in the dealer channel.

Weight: 122 grams on the package, 206 grams in the datasheet

Two different weight figures circulate, and both come from the manufacturer. The printed panel on the package states MASS / 122 G | 4.30 OZ (EXCL. REMOTE)—meaning the product without the remote control. Joyland reproduces exactly the same 122 grams in its specification table. ONE-DC’s datasheet, as presented by High Level Toys, instead states 206 grams without further explanation, and Mshop lists 0.25 kilos in its packaging field.

What can be established is that the numbers do not need to contradict each other. 122 grams is the only piece of information that is specified for what it refers to, and it comes from the manufacturer’s own printed panel. 206 grams is likely the entire shipment including the remote control, charging cable, and storage pouch, and 0.25 kilos is reasonably the shipping weight with the box—Mshop states the packaging’s dimensions as 18.00 × 12.50 × 5.00 centimeters, which matches a cardboard box of that weight. But since neither of the last two figures is specified by its source, it is 122 grams that should go into a specification, and the other two that should be listed with a footnote.

The outer dimensions have their own contradiction, and it’s more troublesome because both pieces of information come from the manufacturer itself. The packaging panel states 143 × 108 × 47 millimeters, which matches the total length of 14.3 centimeters and the width of 10.8 centimeters in the datasheet. The manufacturer’s own specification graphic, which is in the same image series, instead states 126 × 88 × 31 millimeters. So there are two different sets of outer dimensions in the manufacturer’s own marketing material, without either of them explaining what they measure. The larger set is the one that matches everything else that is published, and it’s the one shown in the specification table further down. The smaller one should be regarded as an incorrect label until Hueman specifies it.

Ten modes, one button, and a remote control

The interface consists of two parts. On the product itself there’s a single button, placed on the underside of the perineal section in a metallized inset area that is clearly visible in the manufacturer’s own close-up images. The rest is handled by a separate wireless remote control with three touch areas: plus, minus, and an on-off symbol, with the Hueman logo embossed in the casing. It’s an unusually clean solution for the price category—many competitors put all functions on a single button that you have to reach while the product is already in place.

Four speeds and six patterns—what the ten modes are

The manufacturer is unusually clear on this point, and the wording is identical on the product page, on the packaging panel, and in the product graphic: four vibration speeds and six patterns. So the total of ten is not ten steps on a scale; it’s four fixed strengths plus six pre-programmed sequences—pulses, waves, and intervals. It’s an important difference from products marketed with "ten intensities," because in practice you only have four strength levels to choose from.

What does that mean in practice? Four steps are few, and that is the direct cost of an interface without a display. The pattern modes are not interchangeable with intensity steps—one pattern varies over time and cannot be set to an even level. If you want constant pressure, you have four options, period. For comparison, Pretty Love lists twelve vibration modes plus twelve pounding modes for Emoni, and Orion lists two separate motors with ten modes each for Rebel Cock Ring with RC Prostate Plug. In pure mode-counting, Black Hole is therefore the lowest of the three—but mode-counting is also the worst way to compare this product category, because none of the manufacturers publish what a mode actually corresponds to in frequency or amplitude.

A construction detail, too: according to the manufacturer’s own description, the product has stimulating bumps and grooves on both the shaft and the perineum section. This can be seen in the images as a row of small raised points along the top of the insertion part, and as spiral-shaped grooves farther down. This is passive, mechanical stimulation that has nothing to do with the motor, and it therefore works even in the lowest setting.

Remote control: 8 meters, CR2032, and an uncertainty

The range is stated as 8 meters by the manufacturer itself, printed on the packaging as "REMOTE CONTROL RANGE / 8 M | 26 FT", and ONE-DC’s datasheet repeats the same claim as 800 centimeters. Joyland also writes 8 meters. Eight meters is enough for a room, not for an entire floor, and it is about what radio control at this level of output usually can manage.

The remote control’s power supply, however, is a point where the sources disagree, and it’s worth knowing before the package is opened. Joyland specifies the battery type CR2032 and that a battery is included. Mshop instead says that the remote control requires batteries that are not included. The manufacturer itself does not publish either the battery type or whether the battery is included, which means it’s not possible to determine who is right. The practical advice is simple: keep a CR2032 button-cell battery at home; it costs a few tens of SEK and solves the question regardless of which shop is correct.

That the remote control is powered by a button cell and is not rechargeable is in itself neither good nor bad, but it has a consequence: that part does not have the same water resistance as the main product. The manufacturer’s IPX7 rating is listed under the heading "WATERPROOF TOY" and refers to the toy. Treat the remote control like a normal piece of electronics and keep it dry.

Penis ring: 3.6 cm inner diameter and a time limit

The inner diameter of the ring is given as 3.60 centimeters in the manufacturer’s datasheet. That corresponds to an inner circumference of approximately eleven centimeters in an unstrained state, and the material is the same stretchable silicone as the rest of the body. It’s a measurement in the middle of the range for penis rings—not the narrowest and not the widest—but since the ring is fixed to the product, it can’t be swapped for another size. If it doesn’t fit, then the whole product doesn’t fit.

A safety advisory belongs here, and it comes from a shop rather than from the manufacturer: Mshop recommends that the penis ring is not worn for more than 30 minutes at a time to avoid discomfort or effects on blood vessels. Hueman does not publish any corresponding time limit in any material that can be found online, which is a shortcoming—a time limit is the kind of information that belongs on the packaging, not in a shop text. The manufacturer’s own instructions only say that the ring should be threaded on in a flaccid state with lubricant, and that the insertion part should be inserted slowly.

Sound level: what gets published and what doesn’t

Here, the answer has to be short and honest. Neither Hueman nor ONE-DC publishes any measured decibel value for Black Hole. The closest thing is a datasheet field that says “sound level: very quiet,” reproduced by both High Level Toys and Sabina. It’s a label, not a measurement, and it can’t be compared to anything.

In its own product text, Mshop writes that the product sounds about like an electric toothbrush behind a closed door at the lower settings and can be heard through a blanket but not through walls at the highest setting. That is the shop’s own wording, not the manufacturer’s, and it should be read as a description rather than as a value.

What can be established is how few manufacturers in this category publish a number at all. Lelo states a maximum sound level under 60 dB for Hugo 2 and also lists the motor frequencies, 130 and 108 hertz. That level of detail isn’t available with Hueman, and it’s not available with Pretty Love or with Rebel. Websites that provide an exact decibel number for Black Hole either present their own measurement or a value without a source.

Water resistance: what IPX7 actually means

Black Hole is labeled IPX7 by the manufacturer, printed on the packaging under the heading “WATERPROOF TOY.” The rating comes from the international standard IEC 60529, which defines enclosure classes for electrical equipment. The number 7 in the second position means that the product has been tested for submersion in water to a depth of one meter for 30 minutes. Joyland reproduces the same rating, and Mshop writes 100 percent waterproof.

The difference versus a splash-proof product is greater than the wording suggests. Splash protection covers water droplets and, at best, water jets, but not submersion. With IPX7, the entire toy can be rinsed under running water without any caution, and it works in the shower and bathtub. On an anal product, this is not a convenience issue but a hygiene issue: it should be possible to clean the entire surface properly, every time, without having to keep any part out of the water.

Still, two things must be kept separate. IPX7 applies to the toy, not the remote control—it's powered by a button cell and is not covered by the labeling. And IPX7 says nothing about temperature or chemicals: submersion in boiling water, the dishwasher, or spirit-based cleaning agents is outside what the rating covers, regardless of how tightly the product is sealed against water at room temperature. If a product lacks any IP rating at all, it should be treated as not being waterproof; the absence of a rating is never a sign that the product is approved.

Cleaning, lubricant, and storage

The manufacturer’s own instruction is brief but unambiguous: clean the vibrator thoroughly after each use with toy cleaner and lukewarm water. For an anal product, it is also a given that the cleaning should be done both before and after, and that the product should not be used vaginally afterward without cleaning it in between.

The lube question is settled by both the manufacturer’s datasheet and Joyland: water-based. Silicone-based lube should not be used on silicone products—it breaks down the silicone surface over time and makes it porous, and once a surface is porous, it can no longer be cleaned properly; it can only be replaced. Oil-based products, such as coconut oil, leave a film that is difficult to remove. For anal use, lube is also not optional but a prerequisite, because the rectum produces no moisture on its own, and the manufacturer’s own usage-instructions graphic points out lube in both of its two steps.

Storage: the manufacturer’s own image series shows a white storage pouch labeled "Hueman Space Explorer Equipment" together with the product. Hueman, however, does not publish any list of what is included in the package — the only thing explicitly stated as included is the charging cable, via the wording "USB RECHARGEABLE (CABLE INCL.)" on the panel. That the pouch appears in the image series is strong evidence, but not a commitment. Count on the product, the remote control, and the cable, and consider the pouch a bonus.

Battery and charging: 50 minutes for 100 minutes

Two time specifications are included in ONE-DC’s datasheet and are reproduced by two independent retailers: battery life 50 minutes and charging time 100 minutes. High Level Toys names the fields correctly as "Batterijduur" and "Oplaadtijd"; Sabina has entered both under the heading "Charging time", which is an obvious labeling mistake at the retail level rather than a deviation in the information.

Fifty minutes of operating time is short. It’s enough for a couple of use cases but not for an entire evening, and the ratio between operating time and charging is unfavorable: you charge twice as long as you run it. By way of comparison, Lelo states up to one hour of operating time for the Hugo 2 on up to two hours of charging, so it’s the same ratio but with ten more minutes of operating time. Mshop writes in its own text about 90 minutes of charging and about 60 minutes of operation at medium intensity—a retail claim that’s close but not the same as the datasheet, and that’s why you shouldn’t base your expectations on it.

How is the Hueman Black Hole charged?

The manufacturer’s wording on the packaging is "USB RECHARGEABLE (CABLE INCL.)", and ONE-DC’s datasheet states "oplaadkabel usb". It sounds like it’s USB straight through, but the manufacturer’s own close-up of the charging shows something else: the connector that plugs into the toy is a narrow round pin connector, and next to the socket the housing is embossed with the CE mark, the symbol for not disposing of the product in household waste, and the letters "DC". So the USB end is on the other end of the cable—the toy uses a product-specific DC connector.

What it means in practice is straight to the point: if you lose the cable, no regular USB-C cable works as a replacement, and Hueman doesn’t sell replacement parts to consumers. It’s the same trade-off that applies to most competitors—We-Vibe uses a magnetic product-specific cable for the Vector, and Lelo uses its own charging cable for the Hugo 2—but it’s a point worth mentioning because the packaging wording "USB rechargeable" is easy to read as meaning that any cable will do.

An open DC port is also worth considering in light of the IPX7 rating. The manufacturer states the rating without any reservations, and the design appears from the pictures to have a sealed port rather than a rubber plug. Still wipe off the area around the port before charging, just like you would with a phone that’s been out in the rain.

Capacity that isn’t published

Varken Hueman eller ONE-DC publicerar batteriets kapacitet i mAh, dess spänning eller ens dess kemi. It’s not on the product page, not on the packaging panel, not in the product graphics, and not in the datasheet. The only thing that’s provided is operating time and charging time.

It’s worth noting because the competitors do it. Lelo lists 420 mAh and 3.7 volts for the Hugo 2, and also shows charging current and power in and out: up to two hours of charging at 5.0 volts and 500 milliamps, input power 5 V / 2.1 W and output power 3.7 V / 2.5 W. With that kind of data, it’s possible to convert operating time to power consumption and assess how heavily the cell is being loaded. Without it, 50 minutes is just a claim.

What generally applies to lithium-ion batteries likely also applies here: capacity drops with the number of charge cycles, and a cell that is hard-soldered into a molded silicone body can’t be replaced. With use a couple of times a week, it’s the battery, not the silicone, that sets the limit for lifespan—and because the product is fully molded, it’s practically used up when the cell is. That’s also why a 50-minute operating time without disclosed capacity is one of the weaker points in the entire specification.

Hueman Black Hole compared with the alternatives

Three comparisons are relevant: against the two other combination products that are widely sold in Sweden, and against the premium model that shows what full disclosure looks like when a manufacturer chooses to do it. All the information below comes from each manufacturer’s own published specifications.

Against Rebel Cock Ring with RC Prostate Plug — more modes, thinner panel

Rebel Cock Ring with RC Prostate Plug is the closest competitor from a design standpoint: a cock ring and a scrotum ring in one unit with a fixed, mounted prostate plug and a wireless remote control. Orion, which owns the brand, states two separate motors with ten vibration modes each—so an inner and an outer motor that can be set independently of each other. It has more functionality than Black Hole offers, which has one motor and ten shared modes.

Where Black Hole catches up is on the printed panel. Hueman provides outer dimensions, weight, insert dimensions, material, enclosure rating, and the remote control’s range directly on the box. The Rebel product has a published size specification, but it’s missing both operating time, charging time, and battery capacity from the manufacturer, and its enclosure rating is disputed between the packaging and the user manual. If you want two separately controlled motors, Rebel is the more advanced product. If you want to know what you’re buying before you open the box, Hueman is better documented.

Against Pretty Love Emoni Cock Ring With Butt Plug — double the number of modes

Pretty Love states that for the Emoni Cock Ring With Butt Plug it has twelve vibration modes and twelve dunking (thumping) modes with a memory function, silicone as the material, USB charging, and outer dimensions of 190 × 145 × 45 millimeters. So it’s a noticeably larger product than Black Hole (143 × 108 × 47 millimeters, according to Hueman’s packaging), and it has both more modes and a second type of movement in the form of dunking (thumping).

Emoni, however, lacks two things that Black Hole has. The first is a published ingress protection rating: Pretty Love states no IP rating at all, while Hueman prints IPX7 on the packaging. The second is a remote control—Emoni is controlled from a button on the product. For a product that’s supposed to stay in place during use, it’s a real difference in handling, and it’s that difference that most of all justifies the price gap between them.

Against Lelo Hugo 2 — what full disclosure looks like

Lelo Hugo 2 is not a combination product but a pure prostate vibrator, but it belongs in the comparison for another reason: it shows what level of detail is possible. Lelo publishes materials (body-friendly silicone and ABS plastic), dimensions 104 × 107 × 41 millimeters, inserted length 72 millimeters, weight 121 grams, battery 420 mAh and 3.7 volts, charging up to two hours at 5.0 volts and 500 milliamps, operating time up to one hour, 90 days standby, automatic shut-off after 20 minutes, motor frequencies 130 and 108 hertz, maximum sound level under 60 decibels, plus a two-year warranty with a ten-year quality guarantee on top.

Compare that list with Huemans: dimensions, weight, materials, IP rating, modes and range—but no battery capacity, no frequency, no decibel figure, no automatic shut-off, and no warranty period. Black Hole is also a different kind of product, with an 11-centimeter inserted depth versus Hugo 2’s 7.2, and with a penis ring that Hugo 2 does not have. The conclusion is not that one is better, but that the price difference is largely a difference in how much the manufacturer chooses to tell—and that anyone who wants to be able to calculate for their product has to pay for it.

Price range: 449 to 799 SEK at four stores

Four Swedish stores sell the item with EAN 8719934002692. Cheapest is Blush Me at 449 SEK, then Joyland at 495 SEK, Vuxen at 739 SEK, and Mshop at 799 SEK. It’s 350 SEK or a 78 percent difference for exactly the same item number, same color, and same packaging.

The inventory situation is unusually good in this case: all four stores had the product in stock at the price check on September 12, 2026. That means the price spread is real—you can actually buy from the cheapest one and you don’t have to choose the next-best price because a store is out of stock. The difference between the cheapest and the second-cheapest is only 46 SEK, while the difference between the cheapest and the most expensive corresponds to more than a third of the lowest price.

The price spread isn’t because one store sells a different variant. All four list the item under the same EAN, and three of them also show the same dimensions. The differences come down to the stores’ own margin-setting on a product that is not being price-pressured by volume. Still, always check the final price at checkout: shipping cost is added by all of them under their respective free-shipping threshold, and at this price level several of them are below that threshold—so it can eat up part of the 46 kronor between the two cheapest.

Who is Hueman Black Hole for—and who isn’t it for?

It’s for you if you want prostate stimulation and a penis ring in the same product without having to combine two separate toys, and if you want to be able to hand over control to someone else—the remote control with an 8-meter range is the feature that most clearly sets the model apart from cheaper combination products. It’s for you if you want to be able to rinse off the entire product under running water, because IPX7 is a rating the manufacturer actually prints on the box. And it’s for you if you want a one-piece body with no seam between the silicone head and the plastic handle.

It’s not for you if you’re new to anal. An insertion depth of eleven centimeters and a girth of 3.3 centimeters are a middle step, not a first step, and the manufacturer’s own data sheet marks the user level as expert. It’s not for you if you need to be able to set internal and external stimulation separately—that’s where the Rebel model with its two separate motors is the right product. It’s not for you if you want long sessions without recharging, because the runtime is 50 minutes on a 100-minute charging time. It’s not for you if you require published battery capacity, measured sound level, or a guarantee period before purchase, because Hueman does not publish either of those. And it’s not for you if your anatomy doesn’t match the molded distance between the ring and the plug, because it can’t be adjusted.

One more thing belongs in the decision. The ring’s inner diameter of 3.6 centimeters is fixed, and it determines whether the product works for you at all. Feel free to measure a penis ring you already have and compare before you order—that’s the only pre-check that actually can be done for this type of product, and it takes a minute.

Warranty, complaints, and right of withdrawal

Hueman does not publish any warranty period for Black Hole. Neither the product page, the packaging panel, nor the product graphics mention a warranty. ONE-DC’s datasheet has two fields related to the matter — "garanti: ja" and "typ av garanti: Good Warranty Service" — but neither of them states how long the warranty is or what it covers, and both are reproduced by a third party rather than published by the manufacturer itself. This is a shortcoming, and it is especially clear compared to Lelo, which states a two-year warranty plus a ten-year quality warranty for Hugo 2, and to We-Vibe, which states two years for Vector.

There is an explanation for the gap that’s worth mentioning, because it affects you as the buyer. Hueman is a wholesale brand without its own consumer channel. The address printed on the box, www.huemantoys.com, now redirects to ONE-DC’s image database for retailers instead of to a product site, and no downloadable PDF manual or EU declaration of conformity is published. The user manual is only in the box — and in the manufacturer’s own image series for Black Hole, the manual shown is also labeled "Neptune | Wanderer", meaning it is the cover for another model in the same series. In practice, this means that, in the event of an issue, your point of contact is the store, not the manufacturer.

What always applies, though, are your statutory rights, and they are stronger than most people think. Under the konsumentköplagen, you have three years to make a complaint in the event of defects in the goods, regardless of what the manufacturer promises or fails to promise. For distance sales, you also have a right of withdrawal in fourteen days under lagen om distansavtal och avtal utanför affärslokaler. Be aware that, in practice, the right of withdrawal is limited for hygiene products that have been taken out of a sealed package — but the right to complain in the event of defects always applies. If you have questions about what applies in your case, Konsumentverket guides you via Hallå konsument.
