TENS

Post by easygoing »

Hi guys, newbie here. I'm wanting to give this a go but I can't afford an expensive dedicated unit and as well I want to be able to tell my wife it's medical equipment for knee pain. Will a TENS/EMS decent unit with rechargeable batteries do the trick?

Hi,

I initially bought a cheap 'Chinese' estim unit before the my first TENS one, it was terrible, very harsh feel, limited options and an annoying 15 minute timer that meant having to restart it repeatedly. That was definitely a waste of money.

My first real experience with estim was using the cheap TENS unit, older style 'analogue' simple two channel unit with rotary controls for frequency, pulse width and level.Three modes, pulse, continuous and modulation, selected with a slide switch.

Coupled with a pair of conductive rubber loops and some KY gel managed my first HFO at the 4th attempt and never looked back, that was more than 10 years ago.

Still have a couple of TENS units that I occasionally use, but having discovered the magic of estim for solo play, I very quickly purchased my 2B, no regrets at all.

Try out a TENS unit, not expensive and could give you what you want or an idea of the potential of estim

Regards,

Sam

Not all TENS units are suitable for erotic estim purposes so it's not as simple as going down to your local store or pharmacy to pick up a TENS. Also it's worth noting that TENS devices are a good intro but they can only show you the potential of really good stimming, so don't expect them to take you to the edge of heaven.

Rule Number 1: Those TENS box cheapies just don't cut it so don't waste your money. Especially avoid those horrible cheap little black Chinese boxes sometimes marketed as estim power boxes, and the larger silver ones are no better either. The sensations are painful and nasty, like biting ants running around on your cock.

Took a quick look on eBay Australia to see what's available down under. Nearly all of it is complete shit, cheap Chinese rubbish utterly useless for stimming purposes. However, I did find one bargain...

THIS is the one you want. It's a rebadged version of the TENS-7000, a very popular starter unit among stimmers. Comes in a nice black plastic carrying case along with everything you need to get you started. It even looks medical enough to fool your wife. Best price I could see was a very reasonable AU $79.00 - https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/284889086635

You can find the TENS-7000 user manuals and a setting up video here - https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... 4dbg_m_awZ
