How to Charge a Vibrator or Dildo & How Long Does it Take?

If you keep up with the latest sex toy trends, you’ll soon see that rechargeable vibrators are starting to outnumber their battery-operated equivalents. What’s up with dildos and rechargeable vibrators? It’s straightforward to use batteries; load the container and have fun! What caused the change?

Many people find the idea of including USB vibrators in a women’s sex toy catalog to be new, so today I’ll introduce you to the fantastic world of rechargeable vibrators and answer the two most frequently asked (and crucial) questions:

  1. How is a vibrator charged?
  2. How much time does it take to charge a vibrator?
  3. How is a dildo charged?

First of all, you’ll be happy to hear that rechargeable sex toys can generate greater power than battery-operated toys if you’re old school and concerned about incorporating this new type of women’s vibrator technology into your sexual life. Particularly the smaller ones, like the clit sucking toy, magic wand, or bullet vibrator.

Examining the tiny sex toy closely will reveal that batteries occupy a significant amount of inside space. The motor components may take advantage of this area!

A more robust vibrator implies more space for a better motor. You can see a comprehensive selection of sex toys that run on a USB connection rather than a battery by taking a short look at my list of the best vibrators for women.

How to Charge Your Vibrator

To charge a vibrator, the sex toy business now uses two main kinds of USB cables:

  • A USB cable that plugs into a jack
  • Magnetic USB cable

The typical USB type A cable that connects to a computer’s USB port or an electrical wall adapter that connects to an electrical outlet is known as a plug-in jack.

As in the previous example, the magnetic USB cable can dock on a magnetic charger or feature a type A USB connector that connects to a computer or wall adapter.

The USB charging cable will come with your rechargeable vibrator or dildo, regardless of the model you own. Power adapters for wall chargers are not included.

How to use a plug-in jack wire to charge a vibrator:

  1. Look for the toy’s port.
  2. It will be concealed covertly on the shaft, probably close to the toy’s base. The hole will only appear as a dimple and can even seem to be sealed. When cleaning or playing with your toy in the shower, this one-way aperture serves as watertight protection to prevent water from leaking into the dock.
  3. In the hole, insert the jack.
  4. You’ll feel the jack slip in smoothly after aligning the jack with the shaft’s hole. Naturally, you won’t be able to see this, but when the plug is positioned correctly, it will “pop” into place if you gently push and move it in a small circular motion.
  5. Connect the USB end to a wall adapter, computer, or mobile device.
  6. After charging, a light will blink; after charging is complete, the light will stop flashing.
  7. Please be aware that although the sex toy itself can be recharged via a cable, remote-controlled sex toys usually need tiny cell batteries to power the remote control unit.

How to use a magnetic cable to charge a vibrator:

  1. Attach the toy and cable’s magnetic ends.
  2. Connect the USB end to a wall adapter, computer, or mobile device.
  3. After charging, a light will blink; after charging is complete, the light will stop flashing.
  4. The toy may have disengaged its magnetic ends if it moves after you plug it in, so make sure it is lying down. Before you go, make sure they are in place.

A dock that the gadget sits on while charging is a feature of some rabbit dildos, bullet vibes, couples vibrators like the Plus One, and vibrating clit suction toys like the Rose toy. The fact that the Rose vibrator is round and may easily roll off the top of your computer makes it a handy feature!

How Long Does it Take for a Vibrator to Charge?

For a vibrator to run on high power for 40 minutes, it usually takes an hour to charge. On a low power setting, the same charging time will yield nearly twice as much operating time, but who wants to use their sex toy on the lowest power setting? Not me, of course!

Look for a tiny piece of paper within the product’s packaging that will tell you how long it takes to charge and how many minutes of run time you can anticipate afterward, in addition to providing instructions. The time mentioned above is merely the usual industry norm; I’ve seen sex toys take anywhere from half an hour to two hours to charge fully.

Typically, your new vibrator will be half-charged when it arrives. Before your motor strength runs out and needs to be recharged again, you’ll be able to go into bed and have a few satisfying spins and an orgasm or two.

How to Charge a Vibrator Faster?

Although some experts strongly believe that rapid chargers put undue strain on the motor and eventually reduce overall vibration strength, you can still utilize a quick charging wall adapter. I use fast chargers and have not noticed any changes over time, so I could not verify this as genuine.

We gain a new understanding of how delicate these tiny moving components are when we comprehend how vibrators operate, the complexities of the moving parts, and how a spinning weight produces those all-loved, sexually fulfilling vibrations! The components could be readily stressed if a quick charger is forced on them. But, from an engineering standpoint, it makes sense.

After a few years of operation, the motor will likely lose its charge if the product is of poor quality or is manufactured cheaply. Because luxury sex toy dildo brands frequently use better-quality parts, their motors last longer and can sustain several charges over time.

How to Charge a Dildo

How can my dildo be charged? Here, we’re discussing a penis dildo that looks realistic.

The USB port on a rechargeable dildo is typically concealed around the shaft’s base. It can be beneath the balls if the dildo has any. Plugging the jack into a concealed port at the very bottom of the shaft, next to the suction cup (if it has one), is the most popular method of charging a dildo.

In contrast to a standard vibrator, the dildo will feature a concealed port that might require you to insert the jack’s tip into the skin to break the seal. The dildo skin mold might have obscured the port’s entrance during production. Some folks need help finding the hole. Therefore, it’s crucial to know this before charging a dildo!
