Imagine you’re enjoying one of your best ever sex toy sessions. Then, just as you’re about to climax the battery goes flat. It gets worse. You’ve lost the charging cable and have no idea which type to buy as a replacement.
Fear not, dear reader. Our guide to rechargeable sex toys will ensure that your sessions leave you saying ‘oh yes’ instead of ‘oh no’!
What is a rechargeable sex toy?
Now, we know you’re here for the must-know facts on rechargeable sex toys but we want to avoid premature explanation. So, we’ll run through a few alternatives first.
Vibrators and other sex toys with motors can be mains powered, meaning they are plugged into electrical wall sockets.
Meanwhile, other motorised sex toys may need disposable batteries, also known as single-use batteries, which are designed to be used until the power runs out.
Rechargeable sex toys also run on batteries, but these don’t need to be discarded after single use. Instead, they can be refilled with electricity or, in other words, recharged.
Benefits of rechargeable sex toys
Rechargeable sex toys have many benefits over the alternatives that rely on mains power or single-use batteries, in terms of environmental impact, cost and convenience.
As we’ve touched on, the batteries in rechargeable sex toys don’t need to be disposed of the first time they run flat. Unlike single-use batteries, they can be reused hundreds of times, making them ideal if you’re environmentally conscious and want to reduce your carbon footprint. You'll also save money and time by not having to keep buying new disposable batteries for your sex toys.
Rechargeable sex toys make it easier to give your device power exactly when you need it. This makes rechargeable sex toys particularly travel-friendly because, unlike mains powered options, if your destination has a different type of wall outlet to yours at home, then you won’t need to pack an adapter. Simply plug one end of the charging cable into your sex toy and the other end into the USB port on a laptop, for example.
Types of sex toy charging cables
At this point you may be wondering which charging cable you need for your sex toy. Sure, it may have been included with your purchase but exactly what type is it? And, what happens if you want a spare or replacement?

Safety and maintenance information
As with all electronic devices, it’s important to ensure safe use. At SVAKOM we recommend complying with the following safety and maintenance information for your rechargeable sex toys:
Fully charge your device before first use.
Only charge your device where the local mains voltage level is appropriate for the product specifications.
Only use UL certified or equivalent, 5V output USB adapters for charging. Do not use fast chargers or adapters with output exceeding 5V.
Do not use, clean, or immerse your device in water or other fluids during charging.
For optimal battery life, recharge your device regularly even if not in use.
Unplug the charging cable from the power supply immediately after charging.
Disposing of rechargeable sex toys
Although rechargeable sex toys are built to last a long time, they will eventually need to be retired. Due to their chemical composition, it’s important to avoid disposing of these devices in household waste. Instead, take rechargeable sex toys you no longer need to an appropriate collection point for recycling.
