Verdict

Pros & cons

Die Bob and Brad C2 ist eine leise, leichte Mini-Pistole für Nacken, Schultern, Arme und Waden. Mit 8 mm Hub bleibt sie an Oberschenkeln und Gesäß flach, und schon Stufe 1 schlägt kräftig zu. Der Haken: Im Alltag werden mehrfach Akkuausfälle nach wenigen Wochen genannt. Wenn du kurze Lockerung zwischendurch suchst, ist sie dank sauberer Verarbeitung und bürstenlosem Motor trotzdem eine ordentliche Wahl.

Pros

  • In einem Test leise mit 47 bis 51 dB aus 40 cm
  • Rund 680 g leicht, gut für Nacken, Arme und Waden
  • Bürstenloser Motor und saubere Verarbeitung ohne Klappern
  • Fünf Aufsätze inklusive weichem Luftkissen für empfindliche Stellen
  • Laden per USB-C, Akku reicht in Tests etwa eine Woche
  • Einhandbedienung über einen einzigen Knopf auf der Rückseite

Cons

  • Mehrfach berichtete Akkuausfälle nach wenigen Wochen
  • Mit 8 mm Hub wenig Tiefenwirkung an Oberschenkeln und Gesäß
  • Schon Stufe 1 mit 2.000 Schlägen pro Minute recht kräftig
  • Starker Chemiegeruch von Griff und Tasche zu Beginn
  • Lädt in einem Test nur mit dem mitgelieferten Kabel

Die Bob and Brad X6 Ultra ist eine Standard-Pistole mit 11 mm Hub, die erst bei 23,1 kg Druck stoppt und einen Wärmekopf direkt im Karton mitbringt. Sie taugt für dich, wenn du große Muskeln fest bearbeiten willst und dank langem Griff den unteren Rücken allein erreichst. Der Haken: 3,5 Stunden Ladezeit, schon die erste Stufe startet mit 2.000 Schlägen, und auf höchster Stufe unter Last ist sie gut hörbar.

Pros

  • Stoppt erst bei 23,1 kg Druck, schlägt unter festem Druck weiter
  • Wärmekopf erreicht nach gut 2,5 min stabile 44,6 °C
  • Akku hält auf dem Muskel 196 min, rund drei Wochen Alltag
  • Langer Griff erreicht den unteren Rücken ohne Hilfe
  • Bürstenloser Motor, im Leerlauf 39 bis 48 dB(A)
  • Gemessener Hub von 11 mm entspricht dem Datenblatt

Cons

  • Laden dauert 207 min, keine Schnellladung
  • Langsamste Stufe startet schon mit 2.000 Schlägen pro Minute
  • Unter Last auf höchster Stufe gut hörbar, 51 dB(A)
  • Vibration im Unterarm nach etwa sechs Minuten Dauerbetrieb
  • Wärmekopf nur flach, nicht als Kugel
