The ePlay Electro-Stim Controller is a plastic controller for the line of e-stim toys offered here at Eden. It feels like it is made of cheap plastic, but the weight and feel of the buttons and wheel are decent quality. The controller supports two toys at once, but currently Poly Hubby and I only have the one set of cock rings (review coming shortly). The toys plug into the top of the controller and resemble a headphone jack setup, only smaller. Be careful not to get any water or lube into these jacks as it could jack up your toy.

The front of the controller features 6 buttons including:

Power (click once for on, click once for off)
Tap (this is a tapping pattern that translates to the toy you are using)
Vibrating (this causes a vibrating sensation in the attachment you are using)
Massage (this provides a steady sensation the attachment)
Auto (this cycles through the above options - excluding power, of course)
Speed (this controls the speed of the option you choose above)

The buttons are made into the controller with no edge around the outside of them. This means that if you get lube or water on the face of the controller there is little risk of it messing it up. Finally, there is a wheel on the right side of the controller that controls the strength of the electricity. Personally, I do not like this operation for this option because it can be bumped up or down without meaning to. I understand that it is made this way to enable the user to a variety of strengths but it is a bit risky for my liking.

As I mentioned above, the controller is made of cheap-feeling plastic, but the weight of the controller and the feeling of the buttons makes up for this causing the controller to feel less 'cheap.' The buttons feel like there is a layer of plastic laid over the inner workings to create a flush look on the face of the controller and the wheel sticks out just enough to catch on the user's thumb without discomfort.

The back of the controller lists the toys information, everything from 'name' to 'caution.' The text is large enough to read comfortably and is in white which contrasts nicely with the black plastic. When I have a powered device there is a little bit of information that I like to have readily available, for chargers, this is the voltage and amp output, for toys, this is things like batteries needed and quick notes to remember. Thankfully, this toy makes it easy to find and note the things I like to have handy.

Be careful not to get any lube or water into the inner workings of the controller as this could damage the mechanics and render your controller useless. If lube or water does get on the controller I suggest wiping it down with a damp cloth. The battery cover on the back provides no protection against moisture, so take note to be cautions around that area as well.

The toy came to me in a plastic bag that I have opted to keep and use for storage. This keeps it away from potential lube leaks and makes it easy to keep my attachments nearby. Since at this moment I only have the cock rings, I keep them in the bag with the controller.

We no longer use it as much, not because of the quality, more because we want to find something with more zing.
