Rechargeable batteries are usually slightly bigger than regular batteries, and thus they're likely to get stuck or jammed in your sex toy. The battery case in most sex toy is sleek and made for regular batteries, which makes is little difficult to insert rechargeable batteries.

Further, rechargeable batteries tend to produce less power, meaning not only will you experience weaker vibrations but you're more likely to run out of power much before your expected time and mostly at the critical moment, which can drain away your excitement.

Make sure the contact points in your vibrator are rightly touching the ends of your batteries. If you are not getting the connection right, twist the batteries and push them a little to sit rightly on the slot so that connection is established properly.

What is one important advice to smooth running of batteries and toy for a longer time and ?

  • Remove and store the batteries outside the toy to extend the life of the battery and the toy. Batteries should not be allowed to settle in the toy for a longer time. Battery should be removed immediately after using the sex toy for intended purpose.

What is one blunder that should be avoided to ensure better performance of battery and toy?

Many people will do this mistake. When the sex toy is running low, they ignore and allow them to run out of power. Instead, they should stop the sex toy, remove the battery and then keep the sex toy in its place. Leaving sex toy to run on low power can potentially damage the toy permanently. The reason for this is because the voltage keeps the motor spinning and when it is at a low pressure caused by low and almost drained batteries, it puts more pressure on your sex toy's components and can cause them to prematurely break. That is why it is better to use fresh batteries and take them out as soon as you notice decreased power.

What are the battery related reasons for which Sex Toy won't be working?

Many times, customer may return the sex toy deeming it not working. But commonly it could be due to their lack of knowledge about using the batteries properly. Whilst some sex toys do develop faults and need to be returned to the manufacturer to investigated and replaced, the majority of the sex toys are not faulty but just need to have the batteries put in the correct way. In many cases, customers may not have replaced batteries or they have not been unlocked or charged properly.

The following are some of the most common battery related reasons for non-working of sex toys"

  • The batteries have been put in the wrong way

This is the number one reason why products are returned so it is important to ensure the batteries have been inserted correctly. Many of the battery operated products have small plus and minus symbols on the battery compartment to indicate which way the batteries need to be inserted. The majority of products that take 2 batteries require the batteries to go in the opposite directions to each other, one facing up, one facing down and not in the same direction. So, it is enough if you could follow the + and - signs properly and insert batteries accordingly.

  • Toy doesn’t work after changing the batteries

Always check that you have inserted the batteries correctly. As mentioned above, many products have plus and minus symbols on the battery compartment to show you which way to insert the batteries. It is recommended that you use powerful batteries from well known brands, cheap batteries will not give you the power or last as long. Mixing old and new batteries isn’t a good idea either. It is recommended to always use fresh batteries. We also recommend removing the batteries when the toys is not in use or when travelling.

  • The paper battery isolator disc has not been removed

Many battery operated sex toys products are supplied with batteries already fitted. However, you need to open the battery compartment and remove the paper/plastic isolator disc/tag for the product to operate. This paper isolator is kept to avoid sex toy getting activated during transit accidentally.

  • You have not charged it for long enough

Many rechargeable products require a full charge before your actual use. As the length of the charging time varies from product to product, it is recommended to see the instruction manual of the product you buy to know about how long to charge your sex toy for. Charging times can vary between manufacturers from 2-8 hours. You follow recommended charging duration.

  • Batteries have not been charged at all

It is very important that the charger is fully connected to the toy and the power source. Needless to say, If the charger is not inserted fully or connected properly, it will not charge fully.

If using a pc or laptop to charge your product, the source needs to be switched on (not in standby mode) Also check the USB charger you are using as this can be the reason why your product is not charging rather than a faulty product or charging cable.

Most of the rechargeable sex toys will flash indicator light whie charging. Once fully charged the light will stay on.

How to dispose of batteries safely? Can it be dumped in land?

Batteries should not be dumped in landfills as it can pollute the environment much more than your wildest imagination. It can also pollute the environment. When batteries are dumped in landfills, when rain water enters it, chemicals in the batteries will begin to flow out and pollute the ground water, this in turn, can pollute your drinking water leading to health hazards. So, next time when you are going to dump yard with used batteries in hand, think about giving polluted water to your children. Batteries should be given to authorized recyclers in your area for eco friendly disposal.
