Alternate estim pad placements?

Post by pvsage »

First of all, please let me know if there's a more appropriate subforum for this thread and/or if we already have a thread covering this subject.

I've finally gotten a YiCiYuan estim box that has an app that includes an audio function and am really starting to enjoy stimming, but I don't like shocking my butthole. (My butthole likes having things in it, but not electricity.) Two alternatives that I've enjoyed are breast pads in a bra on my chest wired with one pole on the sternum side and the other on the axillary side, and the same arrangement with the pads on my buttcheeks. I'm sure I can't be the only stimmer here who doesn't like shocking his butthole, so I was wondering what other pad placements you lovely lads and have found pleasurable, and I'd love to hear from any ladies here about your preferred pad placements as well.

I'm not sure you know about Joanne's guide, but if not, you should check it out.

I usually go with a tri-phase setup.
1ch CR loop on head, common CR on base (top side insulated), 1ch pad "around hole", usually perinium.

I don't like putting things in my ass, and pads too close to the hole doesn't feel too good either.
Also stimulus - in general - on my hole doesn't bring me joy.
Electricity has a tendency to look for shortest paths.
So when I want some power through my prostate, I usually put a pad between my tailbone and my hole.
It won't be that prominent, but it usually does the trick, it just needs a bit more power.
Longer distance more power.
So individualy setting the power on the channels is a must.

Thank you for the review. I remember i owned and used an E-stim device many years ago. I tried it a shortly couple of times but i had no clue where to stick the electrodes :) But i remember i got very horny from using it. But what im curious to hear from you guys that have used it. Do you feel any numbness in your cocks after using it or do you get more sensitive since you are stimulating the nerves?

The setup I use 90% of the time is a CR coronal electrode on the tip, a CR loop under the balls with an isolator for the upper half and a Moaner plug from E-Stim Systems, paired with a stereo stimbox I built. The only other config I use is to replace the plug with another CR loop at the base of the shaft, but I find it a bit too intense and desentizing. It obviously won't stimulate the prostate as much as a plug will, but it surprising how much it still does.

I nearly went to the ER a couple of years ago after stimming with some pads I was allergic to, so needless to say, I'm avoiding those now. I'm glad to know there are other boxes making it on the market though. I'm curious to see if this one can interface with restim and the likes.

This is a common misconception. Electricity follows a pah of lowest impedance (actually it's a superposition of paths of low impedance), which usually isn't the shortest path.

I forgot to mention in my initial post that coronal electrodes really don't work for me, and urethral insertion with or without electricity is a hard limit for me. What really works for me cock-wise is a steel chastity belt with one sticky pad on the shield as the "ground" pad, a sticky pad on the underside of the shaft close to the base, and a condom as a dielectric. This gives a strong shaft squeezing sensation that feels almost, but not quite, entirely unlike some strong pelvic floor muscles milking me.

Update: I just re-wired my butt pads so one pole is on each pad, and it is very effective in putting the sensation in the posterior sacral space. (NEVER do this with these pads on the chest; it can disrupt normal sinus rhythm. Always use breast/chest electrodes such that the current path is through the breasts/pecs.) I think this kind of arrangement may be the most comfortable and effective means of stimulating the sacral area without directly putting current directly through the rectal tissue.

I still haven't found a good means of putting current through the prostate that doesn't sting the butthole.

Sorry, thanks for fixing my mistake.
You are right, but my misconception was, that I assumed, that the human body has a fairly consistent impedance across tissues (other than skin), and in homogenous bodies my statement would have been true and I just tried to simplify things.

Nevertheless, it seems, that skin has a fairly large impedance, then fat, then nerve tissue, and then the muscle has one of the lowest.

I have been tinkering with estim and DIY electrodes the past few years with a tri-phase setup using my stereo stim box and restim. I would usually place the common - at the base and left and right + on head and under balls, respectively. Sometimes I would experiment with different placements depending on what felt best at the time. Most recently I did a way with a common neg (-) and separated them. I made some bi-polar electrodes from CR (head) and pads (base). The trodes on both touch the sides vice right over the nerves. I started with (R+L-) on the base and (L+R-) on the head. This gave a really cool sensation. It felt more like a twisting effect rather than a stroking effect. So I decided to to try R+/- on the shaft and L+/- on the head. This is by far the best stroking effect I have felt since beginning stimming. I have done two sessions so far with this setup and both have lead to amazing edging and orgasms. I have only tried this with restim alpha/beta scripts so far, but can only assume other scripts like freq and volume would make it better. I think the biggest thing is experiment with different setups and placements and see what works for you. Nobody's the same with electricity flow. Just be smart and go slow. Get hooked up and get a script or file running. Then slowly increase the volume so you don't fry your junk. If it starts to hurt or sting, might not be a good setup for you. Try something else.
