I am a part time closeted sissy so I'm not in chastity very much, but when I am I'm usually horny, and I wanted to have a cage that was a bit harder to take off, I saw a post with a cage that is the HT-V3 or some other company's version of it and I noticed the piece pictured below:
This is an area that is usually not covered in most cages and where I can't help but pull my penis out. So I decided to order it and try it out.
I ordered the HT- V3 in small and nub
And the HT-V4 in nano and small
Here are the reviews for each:
All packages came with a little carrying bag and envelop, in the envelope was sanding paper, an alcohol wipe, a small user manual and a small ad for the Amazon store page. I got 4 in all, one for each size of cage.
HT-V3:
Rings:
the rings are fairly thick, probably as thick as a double ring cage in some other models line the cobra style cages.
all the rings are fairly ovular, being wider than the are long (wider horizontally). I'm used to circular cages or cages that are longer than they are wide(wider vertically), and because of this, I had to use the biggest ring rather than the second largest or 3rd largest like I normally do with other cage sets.
The slot on the ring that the cage itself slides on to was sharp on all the rings, I'm assuming that's why they provide sand paper, I had to sand the ring I used down because it poked me a few times.
Cages:
Small:
this cage was of medium difficulty to put on, but easier to put on than the first time I tried a cobra cage. So I'd say once you get the hang of it, it would be fairly easy to put on.
this cage angles downward a good bit so I had to make sure my testicles were pulled through enough, this cage sits on your testicles a little. It wasn't uncomfortable but if I didn't wiggle it into place a little my testicles were a little more tender when bumped.
this cage made it very difficult to get my penis out, I'm fairly satisfied with that aspect. With the way the little piece that sticks out is shaped, it's hard to grab your penis even if it's flaccid, and it's hard to slowly pull it out because of the length of the piece
nub:
this cage was fairly difficult to get on the first time, it definitely has a learning curve. You have to angle it down a certain way to get the tracks lined up to slide the cage into the ring. But I will say it was easier the second time I tried it, and those two times were 15 to 20 minutes apart. So once you get the hang of it, again it probably wouldn't be that difficult.
this cage angles downward but is smaller so it doesn't sit on your testicles as much, it's definitely comfortable with less effort than the small size, but the same as the small size after getting it situated.
this cage doesn't have as long of a piece behind the ring, and because of this, it was still difficult to pull out my penis but not impossible.
HT-V4:
rings:
This cage came with rings that were wider vertically and some wider horizontally, I think I technically I chose the largest size wider vertically ring for this one. The rings were the same thickness as the HT-V3.
The rings on this one were overall less sharp than the HT-V3, but still needed to be sanded down a little.
Cages:
small & nub:
I'm looping these together because they feel like more traditional cages. The angle is not as far down as the HT-V3. They feel like an improved cobra cage. The feel is similar but the cage grip my penis better and it doesn't move around, and the cage holes are bigger than the cobra's so no accidental pain while peeing from my penis being behind a piece of the cage(This last part is true about the HT-V3 and HT-V4). Because of this, the feel of the small and nano were similar to the equivalent cobra cage.
These cages both had a shorter piece behind the ring and it was fairly easy to get my penis out from these cages. I was disappointed by this, but these cages will probably replace my cobra equivalents.
Overall, I would say these cages are better than cobra cages and compared to most cobra dupes which are 30 to 40 USD these cages were all under 30 dollars per cage (wow!). These seem like a steal and a great long term cage. I've been wearing the small HT-V3 and I have been for a few hours now and it's really comfortable, no issues at this point.
perhaps I have one from a different manufacturer, I didn't have any pinching, but yes mine did smell very strongly of that "oily" plastic smell, I washed it and wiped it down with rubbing alcohol before using it, which is what you should do before using any cage imo. Also these have prime shipping, so I was willing to pay a little extra for not having to wait a month lol
