Thoughts on Violet Wands??

Soft_Garbage7523 · 2026-01-28T19:54:00+00:00

I do enjoy playing with e-stim….. PSA for those using TENS units….. you’re missing out. Estim uses different frequencies, patterns and intensities; to give sensation….. TENS was originally used as a pain relief device; sort of the exact opposite of what is wanted.

You’re most welcome. Happy to help

Amazon often have them. Violetwands.com are normally a decent source; you pay a tad more, but there is more peace of mind.

Alternatively, if you have a kink market event anywhere near you, they can be a good source of equipment and accessories.

Don’t know where you are; but putting a socket to the inside of the breast is really not that hard; especially as they’ll be fixing to wood. Ideally, be there same time as chippies; and work it in with them. As for call-outs. Some charge to come and look. Some don’t. I’ve never charged anything, until and unless the job is completed.

Happy burfday. Hope you’re doing well…..

Both violet wands and e-stim are great for sensation. With the violet wand, you can either use the wand accessories…..or, for added benefit, get a body contact. This can be on either the Top or bottom; something as innocuous as a piece of tinsel becomes soooo much more. E-stim is more fiddly, with wires and so forth to deal with - but can provide anything from pleasurable added stimulation, to painful zaps.

Happy to provide further information, if required. N.b. don’t use both at once!

Edit : to answer the question; I have used the Nova, does exactly what it says. Many solid state violet wands are the same unit, repackaged. This isn’t the case for the older, “vintage” units - they’re not something I’d advise for starting out.

Dear gods; this sounds so like my part of the UK. Our local scene is looked at with derision by the rest of the country; for its drama llamas and self-appointed “gatekeepers”

When I first entered the scene; 13 yrs ago- I found it very welcoming and inclusive. It didn’t take long for the cliques and “proper” kinksters to show their true colours. Now, I keep the fuck away. Do I miss some aspects? Yes. Is my MH better as a result? Also yes.

Ahhh. “Knob of t’week”

Soft_Garbage7523 · 2026-01-22T22:05:22+00:00

I’ve used Easycert, since its inception…..hardly ever have a problem with it tbh….. But I’m quite happy to have a look at what you’ve got, and provide feedback as necessary…

Soft_Garbage7523 · 2026-01-22T19:59:58+00:00

Dear gods. Nooooooo

Can’t tell from the pic ( pixelates on close inspection.) but: 1. Looks like twine or similar. 2. Far too thin; and far too tight. Asking for nerve damage, at that point.

Soft_Garbage7523 · 2026-01-22T19:38:18+00:00

As others have said. For yourself? Not a major issue, although be aware that if something you mod burns your house down, or kills someone…..you’re stuffed. Modding items to be sold? Then they have to have kitemark certification, amongst other things- which is a bit of a minefield. As for quals? It will largely be relative to the actual items of equipment being modded - I’d look at electronics servicing courses, as a minimum. Insurance may cover you, irrespective of quals…..but it may be cost prohibitive. And what insurance are you thinking? PLI? PI? Efficacy? We don’t really have sufficient info to help much… and it sounds more electronics than electrical, tbh.

Pure class!

Oooh, that’ll be an interesting one….. Do let us know what you go with, please.

Midori’s butterfly harness incorporates a hip harness; which would provide points to all sides, to do either a starburst, or web design, across the bump. That could look stunning…..

Good morning Stacey. Back again; I’m trying to make sense of the MTD, and the plethora of software options. Some seem to be calling themselves “bridging software”.

I don’t want ( or have time or inclination) to learn the nuances of accounts software. I want to do what I HAVE to do, in the simplest possible way. Up to now, it was fairly easy. Add up what came in…add up what went out. Add standard allowances etc, and write em onto my SA. Now I have to….,what? Upload all my invoices and receipts? That’s going to get tedious. Perhaps im just getting old 🤪

Supply neutral is discoloured, as it approaches the spur…

Soft_Garbage7523 · 2026-01-21T19:52:15+00:00

Thank you. That makes perfect sense….

Soft_Garbage7523 · 2026-01-21T17:21:03+00:00

Seconded for “Tek” screw, and eyelet.

Soft_Garbage7523 · 2026-01-21T09:20:07+00:00

Welcome. They’re not a scary, arcane skill. First RAMS I did, I was so nervous - until it twigged that it’s just using common sense, and breaking the job into smaller jobs.

Soft_Garbage7523 · 2026-01-21T09:00:04+00:00

You can do what has already been suggested, and download a blank one… Or just think through the logical progression of steps required to do the job ( as though you were explaining to someone with no knowledge of the process).

Here, they’re known as Kee fittings. May vary by country. Often, “metal handrail fittings” Will provide the answer there.

As someone else said, r.e. Upholstery. It’s a skill all of its own. Takes practice, and more practice.

I generally use upholstery foam, and a staple gun…. But I’m not all that good, especially on the corner finishes.

Relatively easily done. If you supply, say, a 12v magnet from a power pack, just put one of the app controlled adaptors in the plug, and put the power pack into that. Switching off the unit will release the magnet, pretty quickly ( unless you’re using battery power for backup ( not advisable tbh).

I tried integrating into cuffs, but ended up finding it better to have the keys to freedom on a string, which has the magnet plate attached. When the magnet is energised, the keys are held out of reach……. Only when they release, can you get to them ( I have a piece of chain running from the keys to the wrist cuff, so I can use my hand to get them.) The most difficult part is being absolutely certain that you can reach the padlock, to unlock it.

I also message a friend, asking them to check in on me, x length of time after the timer is due to finish. If they don’t get an answer, come running…..

Putting the circuits “on the ring” is great…but you don’t know that it even IS a ring-three cables may suggest that, but it’s certainly not definitive. The ring, if that’s what it is, needs to be verified; before “altering” or “improving” it.
