If you’ve been an avid Gizmodo reader since at least the start of the 2020s, you will not need to be told that a guy named Jeff Bennett has been working on an adhesive patch for your taint—the fleshy spot between your anus and genitals—that doesn’t hurt to remove, and delivers mild electrical pulses. Victoria Song, who used to work here, has been on the case for six years now.
What’s new, however, is that bringing Bennett’s dream product to market is now a solved problem. Song, now at our competitor publication The Verge, discovered yesterday at CES that it’s called the MOR patch, it’s cleared for use by the FDA, and you can order it immediately for $299.00 and your gooch can be getting a good zapping in no time. You’re welcome. I assume you have no further questions.
If, for some strange reason, you’re not already up to speed on what this invention is all about, I’ve got you covered: the Mor patch is for sex, it may surprise you to learn. Hopefully all will become clear when you watch this video:
The MOR website says if you wear its product, you’ll “likely feel a mild tingling sensation,” and that “Most users describe it as a comfortable, even pleasant feeling that helps them stay in control.” But it appears the MOR patch is not specifically for anything. Its FDA approval is for safety, and any claims about it treating sexual dysfunction have not been clinically validated. This is something Bennett is being fairly upfront about:
Many have asked why we named our product MOR.
In this video we share the story behind MOR, our FDA-cleared product designed to enhance intimacy, confidence, and connection through safe, proven technology.

So the MOR is, for the most part, a sex toy—no more doctor-prescribed than a vibrator or a french tickler. Things like this get tossed into the sex universe from time to time, and they either slot into someone’s particular sex niche, or they don’t. Sex is the only hobby in the world with almost 100% adoption by nearly every human being who has ever lived, so only the tiniest sliver of the world’s sex-havers need to buy one for Bennett to get a nice business going.
But the MOR comes from a company called Morari Medical, with “morari” being Latin for “delay.” And that’s because this doohickey was originally conceived as a device for dealing with premature ejaculation. So when the Morari Medical site says the device “contains elements that, when activated, interfere with the nerve signals from the penis to the brain that may enhance or improve sexual performance,” the vagueness is probably intentional, but the word “interfere” gets the point across.
A testimonial from an anonymous study volunteer compares the MOR to another popular, if unproven, technology. “If you’ve ever had any experience with a TENS unit, it’s basically a mild, mild, TENS unit,” that participant claims. TENS units, which are also adhesive electrical muscle stimulation devices, have not been clinically shown to treat anything, but the FDA approves some of them for safety, and some people swear by them, particularly for pain relief.
It’s not just the intensity but the overall design of the MOR that separates it from a TENS unit, however. Rather than electrodes attached to a controller by wires like in a TENS unit, almost everything on the MOR is right there between the user’s legs during use. Control happens within a smartphone app, which communicates with your patch via bluetooth. It’s arguably a bit much compared to the only control scheme the patch probably needs: a tiny little switch with “LOW” “MED” and “HI” settings that you could turn on before you apply it, with perhaps a 30-second delay before it activates. Plus, when I downloaded the app I noticed a setting that records your data, though the setting defaults to opt-out, which is nice.
But while I can’t claim to have tested the MOR, I find myself admiring the directness and unpretentiousness of this gadget and its marketing materials. Plus, there are zero mentions of “AI” or “artificial intelligence” anywhere on the websites for Morari Medical or the device itself, so that’s at least one thing this product is not trying to cram anywhere near your ass. Others should follow Jeff Bennett’s example.
