Electrostimulation hasn’t even been around for very long and yet almost everyone I know has heard about it or tried it at least once. Most of the time, the people who try it end up liking it, and the people who end up liking it wind up searching for the best sex toy to use for it. This is the circle of life, folks. It’s also the law of supply and demand, meaning the more of these devices that we ask for, the more of them that the industry’s manufacturers make them. As a result, it’s now extremely difficult to find a good e-stim cock ring and the problem is not at all due to a lack of options. In fact, there are so many choices available that many users find it almost impossible to pick the right one. For the longest time, I was one of those poor, confused people.
These days, however, I feel like I have a better grip on the market and can find a decent device rather quickly. At this point, I’ve tried dozens of different electrostimulation sex toys and I can usually tell a good one from 40 paces away. So, when my girlfriend told me about the Zeus Electrosex Penis Bands, I was immediately intrigued because I know she wouldn’t suggest something new if it wasn’t an amazingly pleasurable product (as far as she knew anyway). We decided to go ahead and buy it from an online dealer and we waited patiently for it to arrive at the house. I know what you’re thinking: Was it as awesome as you two thought it would be or was someone sorely mistaken? Well, let’s make sure you know what toy I’m talking about first.
What Are the Zeus ElectroSex Penis Bands?
The Zeus brand is well-known for its collection of high-end electrostimulation pleasure products for both men and women. All their e-stim toys require the Zeus power box or handheld generator to work properly, but each of the accessories offered works seamlessly with the wide range of sensation options available on the machine. Take the ElectroSex Penis Bands, for example. They are a pair of adjustable cock ring straps that are fitted with electrifying features and user-friendly ergonomics to make them as satisfying as possible. Best of all, both cock rings are designed to fit any man’s penis and can be enjoyed to the fullest no matter what skin type or lube variety you have in play.
The Main Features
The ElectroSex Penis Bands by the respectable Zeus brand are packed full of features that could help any user live his best life. The device itself comes in two distinct parts – one ring for the penis and another for the balls. Both are extremely comfortable for either short or long-term wear, utilizing a soft fabric with a fully adjustable closure for maximum versatility. The adjustable loops double as e-stim conductors, with two electrical diodes that are unipolar in the functionality (meaning the electricity from the power box freely flows between one ring to the other). The combination of features provides deeply intense sensations to the male genitalia and, if used right, can also offer hours of hands-free stimulation whether during solo sessions or couple’s play.
Furthermore, Zeus’s EPBs have a certain amount of elasticity to them, plus they’re sized just right for almost any penis length or thickness. Curiously, these durable little loops can be used on several parts of the body for direct e-stim pleasures, although their primary purpose is penile in nature. But despite how you choose to use them, their construction is such that it causes little to no painful pinching, snagging or slipping – an experience far different than the one with your ordinary cock rings. Oh yeah, and they’re travel-friendly too, although they’re probably not the easiest sex toy on the market to clean and maintain.
What Comes in the Box?
There;s one thing I wish I had known when I first started playing around with e-stim sex toys and that’s the fact that most manufacturers of those products sell their items separately. When buying electrostimulation accessories especially, it’s important to understand what you’re getting for the money. Most of the time, you won’t get any freebies like lube samples or toy cleaners. Sometimes, you don’t even get a storage container. Well, the Zeus brand is no exception because their ElectroSex Penis Bands are sold “as is” and with the bare essentials only. Here’s what you get for the money:
- The penis band
- The ball band
- The two diodes for the power box
- A set of usage instructions
That’s all folks. Don’t expect to find much else in the box, and also don’t expect the box to double as storage in any way, shape, or form. It’s relatively flimsy and it tears to shreds when you remove the device from its grips. You won’t get any lube samples either – not even the conductive kind that’s required for e-stim sex toys – so be sure to stock up on that kind of stuff before the party starts or you’ll be sorry.
The Experience
I’ll just come out and say that I’m going to have a really hard time comparing the Zeus ElectroSex Penis Bands with anything else I’ve tried (besides maybe a few devices from the same brand). Let’s start from the beginning though, because I get overwhelmed when trying to find the right words to describe this thing. First of all, it came a day early, which was the most pleasant surprise I had that entire week. It was also packed inside a box that had zero marks on it, so that certainly helped considering I live with my parents at the moment. I know; I’m a loser. Back to the story.
My initial impression of the two rings was that they seemed kind of low quality but that’s probably because I’m used to thick, silicone loops with little conductors attached inside. These things, on the contrary, were so lightweight that I was skeptical about how they were supposed to do much of anything to my penis. Either way, I undressed them from their packaging, slid them onto my cock and balls one by one, and then hooked them up to the Zeus power box I already had. The first thought that went through my head was “Wow, these are really soft.” The second thought I had was something more like, “Whoa, I bet these would get itchy after a while.” As it turns out, I was right about both of those things.
The sensations that ran through the diodes was as expected because I’m very familiar with the power box and its settings. It was the whole experience of using an adjustable fabric strap around my twig and berries that was off-putting (even if only in the slightest way). However, after about 10 minutes of fervent experimentation I decided against myself and ended up truly enjoy the session. Luckily, the contraption is extremely quiet so my “roommates” didn’t have to hear a thing, which is odd because I’m pretty sure I was moaning rather loudly in there.
The Ups and Downs
Electrostimulation is a curious erotic pleasure that hasn’t been popular or socially understood for very long at all. Because of that, many manufacturers are unfamiliar with what goes into a great product like this. The market is still trying to catch up with the demands, which means there are more bad devices than good ones so far. However, a few brands have made quite a name for themselves by offering high-quality e-stim sex toys at decent prices and with user-friendly features. Still, even those products aren’t perfect. The Zeus ElectroSex Penis Bands, for example, have a few ups and downs of their own despite being made by one of the best-known makers in the industry. Here are all the things I think you need to know before spending any money:
PROS
- Created for comfortable stimulation with adjustable straps
- Fully customizable experiences with the right power box
- Sensations range from slight to mighty
- Stretchy elastic for maximum comfort and versatility
- Made from skin-safe materials
CONS
- Zeus power box sold separately
- Porous materials may be somewhat difficult to clean
The Takeaway
Cock rings are amazing and e-stim is wonderful. There aren’t many people who have tried either that can argue with that statement. Together, those kinky technologies make for a terrific sex toy that’s geared towards men and designed to produce the most intensely deep sensations currently in existence. The Zeus brand is on the front lines of the industry with their impressive lineup of electrostimulation tools, one of which is the ElectroSex Penis Bands set. The dual diodes are easy to use and compatible with all Zeus power boxes, giving users the versatility and comfort they really can’t find anywhere else. Overall, while these rings may be difficult to clean for some people, they’re still fully adjustable, cozy for long-term wear, and capable to drastically changing the way you enjoy sex and/or masturbation.
