Multifunction Sensory Support
Meet our The Detonator — a pocket-sized sensory support built for rolling, clicking, pressing and higher-input moments, all in one satisfyingly weighted little tool.
Designed to be cradled between the pointer and middle fingers, you use your thumb to roll, press, and click the roller component (with minimal sound). The hidden gem is the textured base: designed for harm minimisation, it can be scratched or picked at, making it a handy sensory-seeking alternative for people who like that type of input. Additionally, you can place it on skin (for example, the inner arm or palm) and twist for strong sensory input — the kind some people describe as an “ouch” sensation. For a gentler sensation, you can roll it between your palms for a grounded, calming feel.
This sensory support can assist with
〰️ Emotional regulation & sensory input
〰️ Focus & concentration (study, work, meetings)
〰️ Tactile feedback & sensory exploration
〰️ Keeping hands busy in a more socially acceptable way
〰️ Reducing habits like pen clicking, tapping, nail biting, or fidgeting
Some ways to use the Detonator
• Cradle between pointer and middle fingers and roll with your thumb
• Press/click for satisfying feedback (without the loud pen-click energy)
• Place the textured base on the inner arm or palm and twist for higher input (“ouch”)
• Roll it into your palm for grounding pressure
• Pick/scratch at the textured base as a replacement for picking habits (harm minimisation support)
Please note: sensory tools can be helpful supports, but they don’t replace professional help. If you or someone you care about is struggling with self-harm urges, reaching out to a trusted person or health professional is important.
