Whoa. I didn't know my servants were keeping logs.

I don't think the latest comic has made it to that thread yet. And without that, you don't know why I want one of those collars for myself. :)

I'm trying to figure out if that was a vague reference, or an ambiguous one.

--WARNING-- this post may cause some people to go "GAH! TMI!!!". Don't read if you're one of those people. Unless you're the type who likes that. Then read on. But don't blame me then.

Do a google on electrostimulation / electrosex. While current units typically use anal probes/electrodes rather than collars, they can cause the same effect... (although not as quickly)

electroejaculation is typically used on men with spinal cord injuries, as it can cause an orgasm with absolutely no mental interaction... electrostimulation / electrosex is designed to cause pleasure, and many units are available (paradise electro, electro-gear, folsom, meo, rimba, electrastim, and erostek are the first few names that come to mind, but there's many others) for this purpose.

The units tend to be rather pricey, although they're coming way down in price (now a couple hundred dollars, used to be a couple thousand) as they become more popular... but I'm sure any of the EEs in this forum could build a quite adaquate version in a day or two. (voice of experience here. they're not hard to build. ;)

Just like the cute foxie's collar, it can cause no-physical-stimulation orgasms... except it uses butt plug electrodes (most common), penile electrodes (less common), etc. which is more fun anyway, right? :P

Hey, no fair giving me ideas for weekend projects when my deadlines are this backed up!

waitasecond..

Is that JUSTIN OF NIMH giving Robin Hood that electrostim pattern!?!?

Christ, it's as though Jeffkun could see right into the darkest corners of my brain!! AAAA!!

Actually, the collar seems to use direct neural stimulation to fire the nerves in the erogenous zone.

Though electro-ejaculation sounds fun too.

Y'know, being found with an electric butt plug up your arse, dead from a power surge is the most embarrasing way to die I can think of, short of being crushed by a rock while shagging a chicken. And I'm sure that for every person who can build one without plugging it into the mains, there's ten who have to make up some very ineresting stories at casualty. I'm sorry, but deliberately electrocuting yourself sounds like a worse idea than using your head as a battering ram.

It's actually a fairly straightforward (no pun intended) job to get a supply with an upper bound on current, and to limit the amount of voltage actually available at an output. (Hell, they wouldn't make plug-in vibrators if it wasn't!) It isn't exactly a dangerous project, although I'd certainly hope anyone constructing such a device had a fair degree of education on the subject.

Because, as you say, dying of cardiac arrest from having an electrical buttplug fibrulate your heart muscles is very easily one of the most embarassing ways to die.

...which is why they're all battery powered. I don't think I've ever seen a unit for sale that ran off AC power.

Most units run off a single 9v battery (and run for quite some time; very little current is used), which even if applied directly to the electrodes wouldn't cause harm. The output is run through a resistor for each pole, keeping the unit from being damaged if the electrodes short together, as well as preventing the possibility of a burn from a short. High-end units with multiple outputs take the further step of transformer isolating each output, to ensure no current flows between output channels, provide further protection, and to increase the maximum output voltage.

(9v isn't enough; the real units have outputs of several times that. transformer-coupled outputs allow for high voltages at low currents with perfect safety. there is no part or combination of parts in the unit that could fail to cause the output to provide any significant current at voltages above battery voltage.)


Anyone who builds/uses one that runs off the ac mains... perhaps is deserving of a darwin award? :)

*holds tight* Kinkiness is good, snuggles better...

But please don't talk about someone killing themselves through anal electrocution. *shiver* :cry:
