ElectraStim Silicone Fusion Viper Cock Ring Review

Personal Experience

Straight out of Cyberpunk.

When I first saw the Viper electro sex toy my immediate thought was, wow that looks cool. I wanted to try it out. The stark red and black colors caught my eye, and the engraved pattern on the front accentuates the the V shaped profile. My mind was flashing images of a futuristic neon scaped city, and me wearing this sci-fi cock ring basking in the electric sensations it would bring me.

All that glitters.

Eventually, after several horny daydreams about cyberpunk-esque electrifying cock rings that also look surprisingly like armor for your junk, the Viper arrived. It looked both larger and smaller than I thought it would. I was a bit disappointed that it didn’t come with anything aside from a storage bag. That might seem bougie of me, but it should be noted that the Viper can’t function on it’s own. It requires a Electrastim power unit to actually be able to use it. I knew this from the get go, but it would have been nice for ElectraStim to include an adapter cable with the Viper at least. After getting past that minor annoyance, I tried the Viper on, and it didn’t really fit. It fit like a shoe that was two sizes too big. It stayed on my cock, but it in no way acted like a normal cock ring, actively trapping blood in my cock and making it bigger. The Viper just kind of stayed on. I also tried getting the pronged ends to go around my sack, but I soon discovered that there was no way that was happening, the prongs were too flexible and wouldn’t keep anything in place. Finally I tried hooking it up to a power unit and seeing what the e-stim part of the Viper had to offer, and boy didn’t that hurt.

A nice sharp burning pain.

I’ve used bi-polar e-stim cock rings in the past. The cheap pair of them I have along with my cheap TENS unit from Amazon is one of my favorite toys that I have. The feeling of using bi-polar e-stim cock ring can vary a lot in sensation. When around the balls it can feel like really intense squeezing almost like using elastrator bands. When around the cock and balls it can feel anywhere from the pins and needles type of sensation when your arm falls asleep all the way to a really intense hand job with no one touching you. No matter where you have the rings located, if you don’t have a good connection with the skin, whether from bad placement, poor fit, or too much hair, once you turn it on you’ll get a sharp burning pain where ever the ring is touching akin to plucking out hair with tweezers while getting poked with a hot needle. And that’s all I felt while trying to use the Viper.

Trying to make lemonade.

Turns out the Viper had a wicked bite (who could have foreseen that), but I was determined to try and find a way where it didn’t hurt. I was freshly waxed down there so I knew hair wasn’t the issue, that meant I had to keep fenagling with it to see if this was a position or product issue. First I had tried it with a Electrastim brand power unit. The second time I tried it with my own power unit. The quality of the current was better, but it still hurt. Then I tried flipping the Viper over so the curved face facing inward instead of out. The only difference was the pain was on the other side of my cock. Then I tried using it with a different cable and also tried alternating what holes I put the positive and negative leads in. Same issue only now I knew that the current seemed to only be going through the middle pad on what ever side the negative lead was, leading to the burning pain. Next I tried it with some conductive gel. Instead of hurting just in one pinpoint spot on my cock, it hurt on one whole side. Next I tried it while also having a second cock ring going around my cock and balls, and the Viper on my now engorged dick. The Viper fit more snuggly, but it was still the same pain. I even had the thought that maybe it’s me, maybe my cock just doesn’t work with this toy, so I tried it on my wrists. Now I was stretching the Viper to it’s limits and all six of the conductive pads were in full contact with my skin. No change. In the end with a frustrated cock and heart, I gave up. I just couldn’t find a way to make the Viper not suck. There still is a chance that all of this was due to poor quality control, but most of me doubts that. I think the main issue the Viper has is that it only has 6 points of contact for the electric current to go through. The bi-polar cock rings I’m used to use up the entire surface area of the inner ring aside from two small strips to keep the internal wires from touching themselves, which leads to a much more evenly distributed current though ones cock. Having only three points of contact per side like the Viper does means that all the current HAS to go through those points, causing it to go from zero to painful in a hurry.
