Is this a how-to, or an encyclopedic entry? --malber 20:46, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

I have cut down the the "safety" section, which consisted mostly of instructions and advice. This is inappropriate; see Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia_is_not_an_indiscriminate_collection_of_information #8 --G0zer 05:52, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] What does electrostimulation specifically do sexually?

Their should be a section that explains what erotic electrostimulation devices do in terms of stimulation and why it is some people like to use them in their sex play. I've heard they cause a man's penis to become erect and eventually can cause ejaculation all by themselves. Also they can cause orgasm in woman too supposedly. --Cab88 19:49, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

It would be nice to be able to cite proper sources regarding this, but I have a feeling there's not a whole lot of mainstream coverage of it. --Interiot 19:01, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

It seems somewhat strange to delete the addition of a link to a large and almost encyclopaedic source,self help and information site that I posted,yet at the same time suggest that prectitioners of electrostimming do their best to find information about safe practises.[see article]I suspect there may be a certain degree of censorship going on from a moderator who maybe disapproves of such things.

[edit] Incorrect Safety Information

In an attempt to be cautious, this statement in the Safety section is too broad and way off base:

"Even at relatively low current and voltage, there is the risk for electrocution resulting in heart failure…"

Having an EE background, I can advise that the statement is almost meaningless. The problem would be amperage, not voltage by itself. A car battery can be used for welding, but its voltage is harmless to humans. In fact, static electricity is extremely high voltage, higher than almost anything else the average person is likely to encounter.

This needs to be reworded and clarified.

It says "current and voltage", so not voltage by itself. Would removing the 'and voltage' simply solve the problem? - Zeibura ^(Talk) 18:12, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

It's a little more complex than that. I'll give this thought and come up with better wording. --UnicornTapestry 10:58, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
