Verdict
Pros & cons
Die Mebak 3 ist eine Standard-Pistole für den ganzen Körper, die mit 12 mm Hub spürbar tief massiert und mit gemessenen 823 g auch bei längerer Anwendung gut in der Hand liegt. Ein feinfühliger Drucksensor hilft dir beim richtigen Anpressdruck. Der Haken: In Tests ratterte sie und roch nach Gummi, und der breite Griff ist für kleine Hände unhandlich.

- Drucksensor mit fein reagierender Anzeige aus 5 LEDs
- Gemessene 823 g, gut ausbalanciert und lange führbar
- 7 Aufsätze, darunter ein weiches Luftkissen für empfindliche Stellen
- Bürstenloser Motor und Abschaltung nach 10 Minuten
- Langsame erste Stufe mit 640 Schlägen zum Herantasten
Cons
- In Tests hörbares Rattern im Betrieb auf allen Stufen
- Stechender Gummigeruch am Griff
- Breiter Griff für kleine Hände schwer zu umfassen
- Auf Stufe 5 bis 57 dB laut, in einem Test bis 72 dB
- Kein USB-C, Laden nur mit Netzteil
