Ask me a question

[Joanne]

As a visitor to my site you no doubt have questions about what I do or maybe why. So, (I will probably live to regret this) ask away, if I can answer your questions I will.

Please be nice to me LOL.

Dear Joanne,

I hope you receive this email. I already sent one but it probably didn't get to you. I have a few important questions about safe electroplay combination with two people.

I've only been familiar with electroplay for two months now and I'm very excited!
Started with a Tens device, but soon replaced it for a E-Stim 2B. What a great machine, especially in combination with the audio files!, (and especially the 'Warped' files in combination with a 3 phase cable!!
Now I want to introduce my girlfriend to electroplay soon and then both at the same time on the 2B together in the long term.
But i have read several articles about this.
One article says it can be done (source: Electrastim) and the other article says it can't be done safely (source: Estim) So my question is: Can you SAFELY be connected together on a 2B unit (personally I think that it should be unipolar)?,.....
NOTE: I also recently posted this question on the E-stim forum and got a clear answer as well

this is the aswer:
The big issue is you want to avoid passing current across the chest. This is an increased risk, and it is up to you to decide what risks you wish to take.
If you have one person on Channel A, and one person on channel B, using normal connections they you have no issues as the channels are isolated. If you use the TriPhase cable then you loose that isolation between the channels.

Clear language, but I now have a few questions about connecting two people to an Estim 2B unit.
(I don't know much about Estim yet) but if my partner is connected on A and I am on B (without using a tri phase cable ) on the same 2B unit and we touch & kiss each other then we only feel the effect of the electrodes from our own channel, not from the others, right? and is thuis safe to do? And does it also mean if my partner is connected to a 2b with elektrodes that I, (without any connection on the 2B unit) can touch and kiss her everywhere without any problems?
And the last, more a future question....
What if we each of us has our own 2B unit (to be clear two 2B units!) and we are both connected to it and touching & kissing each other then what?,..is that the same as us being connected to one 2B, each to its own channel?

I realize that these are quite a lot of questions Joanne and this is mainly because I have only been familiar with Electroplay for a month or two and I am so enthusiastic that I now also want to slowly introduce my partner to this. But that must of course be absolutely safe and, as you read, I am very unsure how things work with two people on one unit.

I hope you can find a moment of time to give me some answers.

Hi Max,

This is a subject that greatly divides the community. The safety side of things is what makes it such a polarising issue.

The 2B has isolated channels, so in theory, each of you could use one channel, and they will not interfere with each other. In practice, always be wary of creating multiple current paths if you are kissing or fondling each other.

To take each of your questions in turn.

if my partner is connected on A and I am on B (without using a tri phase cable ) on the same 2B unit and we touch & kiss each other then we only feel the effect of the electrodes from our own channel, not from the others, right?

You are correct; on a control box with isolated channels, you will each feel your own electrodes, and you won't get cross-chatter between the channels. This is where it becomes a grey area, though. If you are playing with each other, parts of your body could conceivably conduct the current from the other channel as well as your own. So say your partner was using two pads on either side of her clitoris, and you were penetrating her. You may touch both pads, and this could be very uncomfortable for you due to the small surface area you would be touching making it very intense.

That would only happen if you were touching her electrodes, though.

And does it also mean if my partner is connected to a 2b with elektrodes that I, (without any connection on the 2B unit) can touch and kiss her everywhere without any problems?

Again current paths are what you need to think about, For example, if you touched both of her electrodes with one hand on each, you could put a current across your chest. I stress "could" as in the real world, the current would take the path of least resistance which would be through your partner rather than taking the long way round through you. But the risk is there. In general, if you stay away from her electrodes you should be fine.

What if we each of us has our own 2B unit (to be clear two 2B units!) and we are both connected to it and touching & kissing each other then what?,..is that the same as us being connected to one 2B, each to its own channel?

Again you should be fine but remember what I said about creating alternate current paths. Any interaction with someone else risks creating them.

I would err on the side of caution and keep your stimming to one channel each with no touching but if you decide to then that is your call. I would suggest wearing rubber gloves when touching electrodes or going near them as a way of mitigating the risks.

This is a contentious subject and generally, you would be fine but like all edge play there are risks, small ones but they are there.

I hope that helps.

Dear Joanne,
Thank you very, very much for your super detailed answer to all my questions!! I think it's really great that you made time for it and dived so "deep" into the matter! I'm going to read your answers a few more times until I understand it all correctly!
Again manny thanx 'Electro Hunny'!,...

You are most welcome, happy stimming.

Hello Joanna
I have a problem with prostate probes and hope you can help me. I have already tried a large number of probes but most of them did not have a satisfactory effect. I felt that
probes that have an opposite divided contact surface (no ring electrodes),directly cause the prostate to contract. I have already tested a large number of them, but unfortunatelytoo short in length and you only get aroused the sphincter muscle. My problem is that I have a verylow lying prostate. From the anal opening 3.5 inches deep. So I had previouslywith this probe 6.1 inches long, as in the picture. Unfortunately it is defective. Itis still commercially available but somehow I would like to improve.Could you give me some advice. I would be very happy about it.

Thanks in advance Estimer
