Vibrating Toilet Plunger

Water hammer!

The new Vibrating Toilet Plunger offers all the features of a standard plunger, now greatly improved with vibration! Simply affix plunger over opening, plunge once, lean on it hard, then hit the button. A small piston within the plunger vibrates, moving the water column below rapidly back and forth - only a few millimeters, but many times a second. Rather then the sloppy sloshing of a typical plunger operation, the Vibroplunger inflicts the death of a thousand cuts on the unseen clog below.

One-way plunger http://makezine.com/23/plunger/
Actually going backwards and forwards doesn't help. You want a push-only but no pull plunger like this. [gtoal, Jun 03 2011]

       I'll take one once I know what the power source is.

       Some sort of heat engine operating between the user's warm hand and the frigid toilet water.

       A gas engine, like those found on weed wackers, but with horsepower equivalent to a chainsaw.

       I was thinking of a removable battery powered appliance. BUNGCO has a ton of those lying around. DC adaptor could be available.

       How BUNGCO is not bigger than Microsoft and Google is beyond me.

       In the S-bend, the trapped air will absorb those minor compressions. I think BUNGCO should add some features. That should make it better.

       How about a self declogging Toilet, The Shitzgone2000 if a blockage is detected,The chamber is sealed and the internal plunger comes into action. Comes in a choice of colours with heated seat optional extra. Release a fragrant spray every time it is flushed (this option can be disabled). Also equiped with Wi-fi USB and a small flatscreen on a fold out arm, ideal for an e-shit - (using a laptop whilst on the crapper) and listening to your favorite music. Internal 160GB HD, touch screen display. The flush cycle helps recharge the batteries by means of several small turbines placed within the system. The main unit is powered by solar panels.

       BUNGCO is in fact bigger than even Wal-Mart. You just can't see it, because their corporate headquarters is on the far side of the moon.

       We can eliminate the need for this if we can just come up with a toilet that chews.   

       I have an immediate market for the first eleven off the line.

       Just so long as the chewing toilet doesn't look like it smiles.

       [S-note] What kind of crappy music do you listen to when your on the toilet?
