I am new to this but I am thinking about buying a HT V3. Am I better off buying from Amazon where the prices might be a lot less, not sure why, or directly from their website, holytrainer.com? Feedback or suggestions would be helpful. Thanks in advance?
If you are buying a Holy Trainer....be careful in that there are a lot of cheap knock offs made in China. I have a Holy Trainer V2. The price of a real Holy Trainer V3 with cage, ring and magic lock is $165. If you are buying what is marketed as a Holy Trainer for $25....it is a knock off and may not work as well and from what i have heard....is not manufactured as well. There are other threads on this site about the HT V3.
If you are interested in 24/7 wear, I would suggest you think about steel. There are many people that have success with HT devices, but I find the gap to small and can't wear it for extended periods. If you are even close to high and tight then I would look at other options, or try one of the cheaper knockoffs to see if that style will work for you. You can get semi custom steel device from malechastitynow.com for around the same price as a Holy Trainer.
There are steel versions of the HT design, but the actual Holy Trainer cages are plastic (biosourced resin). The design is still pretty much the same regardless.
