Electro-sexy

[ReadyOne]

Long time ago (a couple of years) I went researching on the net and saw several reall good film clips of TENS et. al. in use. Almost all could reasonably assumed to be real amature.

Being the ex-mainframer I am from a environment that always had terabytes of offline storage available for archiving files, I just assumed that they would always be avalible on the web.

Wrong.

And that's why if it good, I save before it disappears.

BTW, there was also a bit of activity suitable for budding electrical engineers using the low voltage current used to drive speaker, how to keep a minimum load, how to juggle up electrodes, etc.

And with sound cards available, people started trading .wav files to play that would give a good buzz.

I liked the idea, but never got out my soldering iron

Interesting. I am a mainframer and now you've made me curious enough to go searching through the mass datasets we hold hostage at our facility. But I don't see this sort of thing being stored on a mainframe such as it's built. Perhaps the server side will have some goodies. Oh, I could get into so much shit snooping around as everything is tracked.

 

[ReadyOne]

No, I wouldn't expect to find a large chunck of the WWW archived on any mainframe, except possably piece-meal by some company with a web site they want to try and support with the %^$@! Lotus server. Didn't mean to imply that at all.

Just at the last couple of places I worked, odds were that if any file existed for more than 24 hours that it had been captured by HSM and would eventually be migrated somewhere. Even it it was deleted, at least a copy of it from sometime within the 24 hours preceding it's deletion would be down in the bowels somewhere.

The librarians almost never scratched tapes wholesale; they would even migrate files from one tape to another to free up a tape volume.

In a way, it was nice. There was always a history of our development efforts back almost to Noah and the flood. OTOH, I know of a couple of times e-mail was recovered which caused great pain, either to the company itself or to someone the company was suing.

There's the story of the librarian who refused to scratch the last back-up copy of PROFS e-mail databases and gave it to the FBI....

This needs a bump


You can make homemade shocker with a 9 volt and 2 wires

 

[ReadyOne]

Yes! Just touch your tongue to the terminals of a 9v battery. Excellent test to see if it still has a charge...

The idea that gets me the most about electro-play is getting the body to stimulate itself by making the muscles move from repeating stimulation. Hook the person up and what themselves jack or jill off, no hands!

Also, the idea that pleasure nerves could possibly be stimulated kind of like a wirehead, but without opening the brain case, is wonderful.

I don't venture out of the cafe much, so I didn't even realize these electro threads exist. I have a violet wand. I've had one for about 5 years. I love it. It's a wonderful toy for the electro involved.

But, any of t hem made in say...the 70s and before probably have wax cores and shouldn'be used for long periods of time, or they might be damaged. The ones made today are made to last and be used for long periods of time.

I like the idea that anything metal around the house can be used as an attachment. And, mine has the body contact, so that really comes in handy, too. I can make my finger be the probe, or my tongue, or even my cock, if I can handle it. Setting it for a low setting, we both get a little tickle charge, and it's a very different experience.

TENS units are all very different. A violet wand is static electricity, and a TENS is either DC or AC electricity. The basic TENS is probalby DC, but if it's a single pole, you have to keep it away from nipples. Use a double pole TENS for nipple play.

The human heart beats because of a small electrical stimulatoin, and a TENS can interupte that stimulation. That's not a good thing. A single TENS used on both nipples will cause the current to flow THROUGH the heart, from one contact (on the first nipple) to the other contact (on the other nipple). This is not safe.

A double TENS will have both + and - contacts in one clip and so the current flows only about an inch or so, but it still flows through the nipple. It just won't go from nipple to nipple, because each nipple has its own complete curcuit. The heart is not affected.

Doublle TENS are not cheap. Single TENS can be cheap, so if yours didn't cost a lot, it's very likely a single TENS. You can usually tell, because if there's only one wire going to each clip and it only has one connection into the unit, from that clip, then iit's a single pole TENS. A double pole TENS will have two wires going to each clip, and it will also have two connections into the unit for each clip.

The basic TENS will probably be DC current (electricity) meaning one + contact and one - contact. The current will flow from one clip, through the body, to the other clip. The more advanced TENS, (aside from probably being double pole) will have a modulation setting and that means the TENS is probably an AC current unit.

This is NOT the same as the AC current of your house, which is very dangerous. That AC can kill you. The TENS AC current is low enough it won't hurt you and the modulation settings can create some very interesting feelings. It can feel like waves flowing though you, and if your TENS has a modulation knob, you have a very fersitle TENS and a fun toy. But, they aren't cheap. The cheapest is around $300, or so, I'd guess.

TENS have attachments, too. Where most attachments for a wand are all metal, the TENS has anal plugs, vagina plugs, probes, etc., that have conducting areas on them. Some are metal, with a nonconducting area in the middle.

The idea behind these attachments is simple. DC current flows from point A to point B. So, you have two different connectors on these attachments so when connected, the current flows from one connector, through the attachment (and then also through the body part it's attached to), then back through the other wire to the unit.

AC TENS will have more wires, but the AC current is alternating. It will go one way, then the opposite way, in a very fast pace. you won't be able to feel the change as a change, but you will feel it as the modulation it causes.

Burns? Not likely with a TENS, for the most part. I guess it's possible, but I'd think you will want the wires removed from your body long before that point comes. There are no sparks with a TENS unit, and most run on a 9 volt battery, although there is a coil inside the unit that trumps up the current. Still, I can't see a TENS causing burns. But, because there are clips making contact with a body part, for long periods of time and at high settings, a burn could be produced. It just isn't likely, unless you are brutal with the things.

A violet wand can burn, and there is always a visible spark created with a violet wand. In fact, you can start a fire for fireplay, if you have the lighter fluid on the body. You touch it with a violet wand and the spark will egnite the fluid. Not safe, if you don't know what you're doing though. Be safe.

One of the possible results of a violet wand is branding the body. With a pinpoint metal attachment, and a high setting on the wand, you can consentrate the current from the wand into a very small field and then actually brand someone. Again, don't mess with this, if you don't know what you're doing.

A violet wand is fragile, because it has glass globes that produce the shock. But, it's really allot of fun. And, the visual is great, too. Turn out the lights and watch the spark that is created as you run it over the person's body. That, and the small lightening bolt that's created inside the globe is quite interesting. It's a shocking experience!

Good safety advice above. (Sorry, it's the closest thing lit has to an up arrow).

And don't ever let anyone put the wand where the sun don't shine, even though it's shaped the right way for that. For some reason, a lot of the submissive women I've known have not only had this happen to them but they've been eager to tell me all the gory details :/

Only electro play I've done is with one of those badmitton paddle things. Hated it.

Oh, they do. :/ Unfortunately, I am not a bug with a death wish.

It's weird, I like most kinds of pain and I like it intense, but I don't like the "electroshock" feeling. It's a different sort of feeling to me than pain. Hard to describe.

Although, if someone were to tell me they had the urethral eletrode for their little black box, I must admit I'd be pretty intrigued.

LOL, yes they do...ours is shaped like a tennis racquet and very effective with all those strands of zap power just waiting to touch soft and sensitive places.

Do you mean in or on? My first and to this day only experience, I was writhing and shrieking what an asshole he was...so he went right for mine. Public party so no penetration. Just a lot of external zapping. That's okay, right?

I ask mostly because next Saturday (Easter), I get a second chance. I've been craaaaaaaving. *happy dance....which just so happens to resemble electrocution jerky dance*

Thanks for this thread, some interesting reading Many of my fantasies are based around the equipment I used to use when I was training as a beauty therapist....maybe I will drop hints to my SO LOL

Personally, I''ve never had any complaints from my victims. But, with a wand, just don't hold it in one spot for more than a few seconds. Any movement, even a little, is good, because then the current is moving, too. And, if you keep it moving in circles, you will be happier with the sensation aspect, too.

It is possible to brand someone, with the right attachment and a high setting on the wand. At high settings on moist flesh, you don't want it consentrated in one spot for too long.
Now, I'm not saying you can't ever touch it to your body for any length of time. You can do that, but you will just have to experiment for yourself on how long is too long for some settings.

What I would say to watch out for is shoving it up inside you. Again, this has a lot to do with how high the setting is and how long the wand is inside you. I've never actually shoved it all the way inside someone, but I have pushed it in an inch or two, at times.

Just be careful and don't get carried away. Don't fuck yourself with it until you cum, because that probably isn't a good thing. The inside of a pussy is quite moist and it will conduct current very well. Also, because it's a delayed reaction, the bad results probably won't show up for a day or two. The tissue could get sore and cause a water pimple to form in the area or areas. And, in extreme cases, actually change the consistency of the tissue. Maybe even blisters, in the very exteme hard core users.

Just don't get carried away, until you are sure of what you're doing. Too much of a good thing can be too much. "Moderation in everything" is a good motto.

EDITED to clarify...
OK, blisters are very extreme, but an unusual soreness or sensitivity is probably the first thing you'll notice (depending on your threshold of feeling), then maybe water pimples could show up in the exact spot you consentrate the current, if it's too long in one spot.

Like I said, it's never happened with me in many years of use, but I would guess that would be the result. Everybody is different. Maybe someone else could offer their experiences, perhaps.

Why was electric torture first used so broadly and systematically in Algeria and Vietnam and why did it spread so rapidly after that? Prior to the 1940s, many police forces used third degree methods and torture to interrogate prisoners. Since the dynamo and magneto, the car battery and field telephone, were already available by World War I, why was electric torture not used more frequently? The reason lies in the quasi-democratic context in which the Algerian and Vietnamese conflicts developed. Torturers favor electric torture because it leaves no marks other than small burns that, one can allege, were simply self-inflicted. Such a technique was simply unnecessary for police forces that were not held accountable or in war contexts where it didn't matter or where there were no courts or journalists to investigate the tortures. This is why we can find no record of Gestapo officers using electric torture for interrogation in Europe, although torture they undoubtedly did. Even among Gestapo allies, only one small group of collaborators in Paris, experimented with electric torture. It also explains why we find few references to electric torture in the Soviet bloc.

In Algeria, it was otherwise. There were courts, journalists, human rights activists, left wing politicians, and theoretically, democracy. In fact, in 1955, the French government was obliged to send Wuillaume, a senior civil servant unconnected to the police, to Algeria to investigate the many allegations of torture. In his notorious report, he concluded that torture, especially electric torture, was widely practiced. Wuillaume argued that since the use of such devices was inevitable and so prevalent, torture so effective, and the danger real, torture should be legalized and administered professionally. Though the report was condemned, the technology lived on and the French colonial police and army became the first disseminators of electric torture by dynamo worldwide. The methods they developed continued long after the last French soldier had left Vietnam and Algeria. U.S. Marines sent to Vietnam stated repeatedly and independently that they were trained to use field telephones for interrogation in Camp Pendleton in the 1960s. The technique they learned was the French technique: "take a field telephone, the TP 3-12, and put the connecting wire to it, then take the other end of the wire and attach it to a person’s testicles and crank it -- this causes a high-voltage shock, there is no amperage behind it, just voltage, but it is extremely painful." By the late 1960s, virtually all police forces that used electric torture in interrogation were either former French colonies or had received extensive American training. The devices and methods remained the same until the 1980s.

If you want juice, just come to the University of Perverse Hospital. The Perverse Nurse Janey will give you some joules. I know all about how to do that. I got paddles or pads, you get to choose.
