KDC - Chastity Belt

So, a new toy from KDC

Appearance

As you;d expect from KDC, visually this thing is high quality. It also has a colour hud that lets you fully adjust it to match whatever else you have on, (or to make it stand out more if you're a humiliation, etc kinda person)

It DOES have poses built in but.. Well the function section will explain. Its mesh, in two pieces so you can adjust the waistband and the crotch area separately for a better fit. Each of the rings around the edge can have chains linked to it if you have other TouchBound gear (KDC cuffs to be exact), and you can use the fingerprint lock included to lock each ring, making a padlock appear.

Function
 
So.. How to put this. First things first, DO NOT BIND YOURSELF TO THE FINGERPRINT LOCK, at least not if you bought this to have your owner lock it on you. Also if you want public play? You have to go buy one of the more conventional padlocks from KDC.

All of KDCs gear uses touchbound these days. You click the lock (finger or normal), click the ring/area you want to lock, and its locked on. If you click say, a ring, then one of her cuffs, it'll chain them together. However, if you do not own any of her cuffs, the belts mostly visual only. Which is why there's so few pics for this one, I don't own any of her cuffs.

Her key system is.. fairly simple I think. If you buy the normal padlocks, you rez them, accept an unlinking permission, you can then take the key and padlock. If you rez them on the ground, anyone can use them, whereas if you wear them, only you can. Unlike the fingerlock, you need to use both items. The padlock to lock things, the key to unlock. Its a simple system, and it does work (I know I said before it was horrible), but I still feel a lot are gonna make mistakes with it unless they read up first. Lets hope this review helps with that.

So, long story short. Belt has poses. Poses can only be used if you have KDC cuffs. Fingerlock can only be used by the person bound to it. Do not bind self to fingerlock if you want it for someone else. Buy padlock if you want more public access.

My thoughts

Its a good looking belt, and the hud allows for plenty of customising, so both pluses there.

I want to try and like touchbound. Its concept is great, but the documentation on its usage is all on KDCs wiki-like page, and most SL users in my experience aren't gonna go shooting off to a webpage to learn this stuff. Hell most of them don't even read NCs in world that come with toys.

Touchbound is a nice idea, but the key system is my major fault with it I suppose. For photoshoots, or D/S play between two long term, it;ll work fine. For those that like spontaneous bondage or sudden RP? Its gonna have some issues.
