Electro play – Playing with electricity

“Electro play – Playing with electricity” was written for BDSMforyou.nl by Mistress Moriah.

I can still remember browsing a webshop selling BDSM products, completely unaware of what I was getting into, and coming across all kinds of products for “electro play.” I felt like a kid in a candy store and looked at all those products with longing. However, I didn’t end up ordering anything because I also found it terrifying. On the one hand, I thought it would be fantastic to play this game with a sub, but on the other hand, I wondered how it worked, whether it could be harmful, and how exactly I should do it.

Electro play

Of course, the products came with technical specifications, but I couldn’t find any instructions on how to use them. Or any information about the potential risks. After all, you don’t just electrocute someone for no reason, do you? Fortunately, I had the opportunity to learn how to play this game safely and discovered that there was nothing scary about it. In fact, it’s a really fun, exciting, and thrilling game, as long as you keep a few basic rules in mind. Special electro boxes are available for electro play. They range from 9v to 12v. All kinds of accessories are available for these boxes to make the game even more fun and varied. Think of all kinds of clamps, sounds, parachutes, and dildos.

Exciting and scary

For many people, electro play is an “exciting or scary game.” People quickly think of the 220v that comes out of the wall socket. Of course, it involves electricity, but it is not normal electricity. The electric shocks from the electro box can be vicious, but if you use it safely, you won’t (fortunately) cause any casualties. In addition, the electro boxes have buttons that allow you to determine the intensity. From teasingly soft to mean and painfully hard.

Different products

Electro play has different products, but all products revolve around electricity. There are electro boxes with lots of expansion options, the Neon wand or Violet wand, and how about a simple electronic fly swatter? You can experience electro play as a full-fledged game, but you can also use it as extra stimulation in CBT (Cock Ball Torture).

Use and risks

Electro play is not without risk. For example, it is not advisable to play this game if your partner has a pacemaker or heart problems. It is useful to know this before you start applying voltage to the electrodes on his or her body.

It is also important not to let the intensity get too high. This can cause muscles to cramp up. In itself, this does not have to be a problem, but don’t forget that your heart is also a muscle and you don’t want it to cramp up.

When engaging in electro play, it is important to know whether your toys are unipolar or bipolar. With a bipolar toy, the positive and negative terminals are on the same clip or pad, so that the current only passes through a small part of your body. With unipolar toys, you have one clip with a positive terminal and one clip with a negative terminal. The current then flows from one clip to the other. If you were to clip these onto your nipples, you would run the risk of the current passing through your heart to the other side. Not a good idea.

With a bipolar toy, you can play above the belt if you want, but if you’re not sure, stick to below the belt. And let’s be honest, there are plenty of fun places below the belt where you can play…

The experience

Of course, everyone’s experience is different. Some people get excited by the electrical stimuli on their body, while others will watch the game with fear and trembling. It is important to keep a close eye on your partner and respond accordingly. There are electro toys that can be very pleasant, such as gloves that deliver gentle stimuli during a massage, but there are also electro toys that can be very nasty, such as the electric sound.

Safe electro play

For safe electro play, it is best to use products that are made for this purpose. There are various electro boxes that work well and run on batteries. Even with these electro boxes, the pulses can still be quite painful. Often, there are all kinds of sex toys available for these boxes to add variety to the game.

Contact gel

And before you start, don’t forget the contact gel, which ensures good conduction of the current. It makes the stimuli more effective and reduces the risk of a sudden, intense electric shock.
