After reading about the Pavlok in a reply by @Thatgirl, I decided to ask Mrs. F for one for Christmas. She surprised me with it, because I really didn't think she would go for it. My primary initial objective is to make myself averse to porn as it has continued to be an issue for me. Later I want to work on personal focus at work. First let me say that after charging it according to the directions, I had trouble getting it to pair initially which was required to get the first firmware update to work. It worked from the morning of the 25th until around the same time a day later, at which point it became completely unresponsive. I followed the directions on the Pavlok website and let it drain overnight before attempting to recharge it. (Recovery was not according to their more optimistic estimates of 4-5 hours, which I initially tried.) It finally accepted a charge and then I was able to get it re-paired with my phone. I played with the levels a little initially. It starts out at 30%, which I thought was nothing. I quickly ratcheted it up to 100% which will get your attention, but isn't super long lasting. I shocked myself once on the 25th after pulling up a pornographic image of one of my favorite models and did the same thing on the morning of the 26th, before it died. Today after getting it to come back to life, I decided I would try to place the plate against the back side of my scrotum underneath the cage. Initially the connection was inadequate and it would not deliver the charge. After a minute or two I was able to give myself a zap at 100%. At the time it, "got my attention" more forcefully than the shock to my wrist, but it wasn't excruciating. I gave myself a second zap about 30 seconds later, closed the website I had pulled up, and set the device aside. As I was writing my previous post in a different thread, I began to feel a dull ache in both testicles like I had been kicked moderately. The feeling increased over the next five to ten minutes. It's now been close to 30 minutes and my balls still throb somewhat. I can function fine, but they definitely have my attention. I will likely use this mechanism for administering future shocks over the next week, as it seems a bit more intense and certainly longer lasting than using the wrist. I may try it on my glans or shaft at some point if I'm unlocked, although that would be impractical for general use and I honestly, can't imagine it hurting worse than on the scrotum. I'm sure that a KH, could use it as a powerful training tool, were she of a mind. I'll be curious to see what others say.
Sounds good to me. If there are plenty of porn etc websites loaded to trigger up it should work well. Scrotum is obviously the best place surely?
Make sure to download the Chrome extension for it - you can enter porn sites in the extension and it will give you a zap! As far as the pairing and whatnot, it has be so-so for us as well. Hoping future firmware updates will take care of that!
Yeah, so about that... I have no idea. It's dead again. I have only done perhaps five, but I have no idea how many it could do. The first time it died I had to let it sit overnight. This is feeling more and more like a public beta test that I paid $180 to participate in.
Also, I did try two shocks to my glans this AM, but honestly, the scrotum is much more effective. I would say the effect on my wrist is more long lasting than on my glans. The sack is definitely the way to go.
So Pavlok recommends training with the device for five minutes each day doing the activity you want to condition yourself to avoid and administering shocks regularly. So I tried that this morning and gave myself 21 shocks in the 5 minute period. I'll try to increase that tomorrow.
Pavlok made a major update to the iOS app yesterday and it seems to have dramatically improved connectivity. They also appear to have improved other aspects of the app and retooled the sleep functionality. I administered 61 shocks to my scrotum over today's five minutes of intentional porn viewing.
I looked at this thing and would be interested. I can't figure out how to attach it to bf's penis securely. Bf saw it and says he can't see how you do it, either, and he's pretty good at figuring out these things. I'd want to use it with his cage on. Bf says he could figure out how to do it, but it would be complicated and need alot of work to the chastity device.
So they recommend that you purposefully engage in the activity for 5 minutes for 5 consecutive days. So yes it was painful, totally attention getting but not to the point that I was crying or anything. I can say since completing my last series of 5 minutes on the 31st, porn really hasn't been desirable. It could be that I'm just at a low point in my "cycle" because it seems to be a cyclical issue, but time will tell. @Thatgirl has the right idea. I'd strongly recommend placing the metal plate on the scrotum against the testicles after you have him in the cage. As @Thatgirl wrote in a different thread about you can use nail polish or something similar to mark the strap once its secured over the top of his cage, so tampering is evident. You might also be able to run a plastic security lock through it.
