Estim Sex Toys and a Hands Free Orgasm

What is Estim: Estim is electrostimulation of the nerve endings, specifically the genitals, for sexual pleasure.

Yesterday, I was having lunch with two friends.  I’m the youngest, as the other two are both nearing 70.  Out of the blue, “Harry” just starts telling me, “I got my estim unit in the other day.  Do you know what TENS or estim sex is?”  Of course he knows I have been in the sex toys business all my life so I meekly reply, “Yes” and let him continue.  But for those reading this, “TENS” is an abbreviation for “Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation”.  And estim sex (sometimes written “e-stim”) is an abbreviation for “electrostimulation”.

“I always wanted to use estim on my cock for hands-free orgasm, and had read that, if done correctly, might allow a flaccid penis to be shocked to hands-free orgasm” my friend told me.  I know already that he rarely gets erections now (some friends share everything, whether you want to know or not).

But I was more surprised when the the other friend asked him, “I have the new estim smaller pads coming next week”.  Woah!  “Jerry” has a estim sex machine also!  It appears I have been missing out on the news from my friends.  I always knew he was wild, as he has a Sybian.  So it was time to ask questions about their estim toys and whether they had ever succeed in hands-free orgasms.

An Estim Hands Free Orgasm

Jerry says that he was able to bring himself to a estim orgasm with the tens unit once — when he first received it.  He thinks it was because it was new and he was so excited to experiment with the estim sex and everyone had told him how amazing estim on the cock would feel.  Since then however, he hasn’t been able to reach a second hands-free estim orgasm.

Harry explained that he hasn’t had success with the estim toy but plans to keep trying.  “I know other guys that really believe in tens unit masterbation and even when they don’t orgasm just from estim sex, they say the feelings of being shocked were worth it”.

All that sharing encouraged me to talk about my experience with tens unit masterbation.  I had a unit with four estim cock pads and electrodes, very similar to this one.  I placed one estim pad at the base of my cock and one pad at the frenulum , the spot directed under the glans at the “back” of my dick.  Then I turned on the shocks and began experimenting with the amount of electricity being sent through the estim or tens unit.  I knew that tens pad or electrosex pad placement was critical, and I experimented with a few places on my cock before deciding where to leave it.

Now, I have to admit, I have a morbid fear of electricity and getting shocked by anything but the promise of an e stim ejaculation, or if lucky, a hands free orgasm was too much to pass up.  I want to scream when static electricity builds up and I touch the car door and get a shock.  So I was probably not the best candidate for testing ESTIM sex pads on my cock, but I still wanted the chance.  

The tens machine on my penis generated light shocks that were interesting, and didn’t feel bad.  I continued to adjust the amount of estim shock on my cock until I got it as high as I could handle.  It went from tingling to really uncomfortable.  I was never able to get that “squeezing” or “pulsing” sensation BETWEEN the pads that many users talk about and is required for a hands-free orgasm.  

That feeling, if you can get to it, is considered the “Holy Grail” of estim unit masterbation.  I also changed the pad placement many times to see if I could generate tens orgasm of any kind.

In the end, I couldn’t get myself even close to orgasm with tens.  But I wasn’t really surprised because I have never been an easy subject to bring to orgasm.  So any review I would do of electrostimulation wouldn’t really be fair — and so I never wrote about my experiences.  It wasn’t until friends start telling me over lunch that they had been playing with e-stim masturbation, that I decided I would share my experience, good, bad or indifferent as it were.

Anal Estim

When I started telling my buddies about the estim butt plug that I tried, both friends grimaced and said that I was “quite adventurous” and “butt plugs were off-limits”.  I was thinking to myself that they are trying to have a hands-free orgasm using electricity with pads placed on their cock, and purposely shocking yourself — so how can you give me that sour face when I talk about trying an electrically charged butt plug?  

Unfortunately, my experience has been many years ago, and the exact estim butt plug toy I used have been discontinued and improved, so the ones I am showing are “close” to what I used … and most likely better as they have more years of estim experience under their belt now.

What I had read about the estim butt plug is that the estim (or TENS) controller could generate a current that would cause the butt plug to slightly move in and out of your anus, in a slight, simulated fucking motion.  I’ve written before that anal doesn’t really interest me (except for prostate toys) but I’m still game to trying new things as I did with the estim butt plug.

I lubed the butt plug and inserted it into my ass and fired up the estim sex toy controller.  The feelings were unique, slightly pleasurable on low speed, but no matter what speed I tried, the plug didn’t move.  I also thought that it might send waves of electrical current into my prostate or cause a rock hard erection because of the nerves and electricity, but that didn’t happen.  In the end, it was enjoyable but something I have never repeated.

Hearing them talk made me think back to my days with my estim toys, and wondering if I should try again.  Certainly technology has changed and those changes might improve the feelings I would get and maybe I could get to the elusive hands-free orgasm that other estim users write about and that I have seen in estim videos.

Estim for Couple Use

Both guys told me that they had better luck with their partners and estim units — being able to generate intense orgasms with mild shocks of the estim on the clit.  The pads that come with these units however, were too large and un-comfortable, hence Jerry’s search for and ordering of smaller estim pads for easier placement.

Next month when we meet again, I plan to ask more questions about their estim sex experiences.  🙂

PS:  I don’t link to explicit estim videos on loveworks.com, but if you would like to see an example of what I hoped to accomplish with tens and “estim” or “electric stimulation”, there is a great non-professional video here:  h**p://xhamster.com/movies/5045793/quick_e_stim.html

The move I looked around the site, I noticed that most guys are using actual cock bands, rather than the adhesive placement pads, and a large number of them are putting them on the balls or under the balls.  Watching the video got me excited to try it again but I don’t know when that will happen.  Estim fun just wasn’t for me.

Watching estim videos is amazing though, and I wish I could have responded with estim orgasms as the videos show intense orgasms that are extended due to the tens unit.

The picture I used for the post is the travel kit, and considering what it comes with, I think it is a good deal (tens controller, butt plug, pads, and cock straps).

And a few words of advice:

Always remember, all electrical connections need power and a ground. So two electrode pads or an electrode pad and the accessory will always be needed. For instance, if you are using the butt plug you will need to attach the power lead (red) to the butt plug and the ground lead (black) to an electrode pad stuck to your butt cheek or thigh. When using the cock ring the red lead goes to the cock ring and the black lead to an electrode pad attached to your thigh or pubic area.

The estim butt plug I was using had two electro-panels but not two cords.  It was described as a “bi-polar” toy meaning that it had its own “positive” and “negative” terminals built-in.  Most metal estim butt plugs are not bi-polar and must be used with another connection to the body such as a patch to complete the connection.  However, I don’t think it was actually bi-polar which may be the reason I didn’t have any luck with it.
