Frequently Asked Questions

Questions and answers to some of the more common questions regarding E-Stim and its pleasures. This is not a compete list and is constantly being updated.

If you would like to ask a question, then why not visit our customer forums, for up to date advice and chat about E-Stim Equipment.

Are the electrodes compatable with all of your control boxes?

Yes. All of our accessories are compatible with all of our control boxes, and, with suitable adaptors the Series 1, Series 2, 2B™, the ABox™ and the Remote can drive a wide range of electrodes produced by other manufacturers.

Can I run the control unit from the mains?

The only control unit designed to operate from the mains is the 2B™. All of our other control units are not designed for mains operation and although it is technically possible we strongly recommend that you do NOT try. Using batteries provides a system that is intrinsically safe.

Can I use a condom on the electrodes?

No, as the electrodes rely on contact with the body, a condom will provide an insulator, preventing the electrode from working. The best method to ensure protection from infection is to ensure that you have your own electrodes and you don't share with others. Ensure you clean the electrodes thoroughly both before and after use.

Can I use a Zinc Carbon battery?

No. A zinc carbon battery, normally marketed as a cheaper battery (10 for £1), doesn't have the capacity to drive a Series 1 let alone a 2B™. Steer clear of them.

Can I use e-stim across my nipples?

Despite what you might see on electro sex groups we strongly advise against using any E-Stim equipment across the nipples. The heart is a rather important piece of your body that runs on electrical signals ...Passing a current across the chest from any E-Stim equipment MAY disrupt its operation. To play safe stick to stimming below the waist (and remember hand to hand may pass across the chest.. a definite NO.NO.)
If you know exactly what you are doing it is possible to undertake safe electro nipple play, but only with our 2B™.

Can I use E-Stim if I have a heart condition?

If you have a heart condition you should NOT use any kind of electro-therapy device unless recommended by your medical practitioner.

Can I use rechargeable batteries?

Yes and no, but generally no. A rechargeable battery normally does not have the same voltage output nor capacity as a normal alkaline PP3, thus giving a much reduced and inferior sensation, and much reduced play time. A simple answer is carry a spare, or if you have a 2B™, use the power supply.

Can you clean the electrodes in the dishwasher?

Yes you can clean all of our premium electrodes in a dishwasher, although we suggest you ensure that no cleaning solution is left in any crevice. Ensure the electrode is completely dry before storage.
