The vibrator is universally accepted as the best, most versatile sex toy that you can use today, but all those vibes need a reliable power source. The battery-powered models are okay, but you need to stock up on compatible batteries and dispose of the used ones, which can be a tedious task. Enter rechargeable vibes. These come in a great variety, but they have a thing in common – a rechargeable internal power source that provides hours of use time on a single charge. So, here we discuss the main things to know on how to choose a rechargeable vibrator that you’ll be happy with.
What Is a Rechargeable Vibrator?
The rechargeable vibrator is a sex toy that uses a rechargeable internal battery as a power source, providing longer work time and more reliable use. The rechargeable vibes come in a significant variety, and you have so many options to play with these. There are some key aspects to know when selecting a rechargeable vibe, which we’ll outline below. Still, here you need to note that the rechargeable vibes today come with better internal mechanisms and more reliable high-tech lithium batteries that will last you for a couple of years or more.

How to Choose a Rechargeable Vibrator?
Choosing a rechargeable vibrator is not such a challenging task, as you first need to decide the type of vibe you want, and then you can look at the other features. Here are the key aspects to note, and below, we’ll outline the different types of rechargeable vibes you can find today:
- Power – the main thing with rechargeable batteries is the power and the expected use time. For example, you can find high-quality rechargeable vibrators that have a long battery life and either come with a charging station or come with a USB charging cable. The highest quality rechargeable vibes come with magnetic chargers, so you simply stick the charger to the charging spot on your toy, and it will do its thing.
- Charging time – the charging time plays a critical role when you choose a rechargeable vibe. It is convenient if you get a rechargeable toy with a USB charger, as then you only need to plug it into a USB charger or your laptop to charge. But when you make your selection, take a look at the charging time we have listed in our product descriptions, and look for a toy that has the optimal charge/use time ratio.
- Vibrating options – the rechargeable vibrators come with a great variety of options, as more come with variable speeds and multiple vibrating patterns. Another good aspect of rechargeable vibes is that many of these come with wireless remote controllers you can use to play with and facilitate your sexy time.
- Material – we always recommend you get a vibrating toy made from body-safe material like silicone, as this is non-porous and effortless to clean. There are good quality rechargeable sex toys that are made with a combination of silicone and ABS plastic, and many of these look exquisite.
- Design – we’ll outline more on the design of rechargeable sex toys later on, but here, we need to mention that you have an abundance of models to choose from. There are plenty of choices of rechargeable sex toys for women and sex toys for men, so you need to pick the model that appeals to you the most.
- Waterproof rating – the waterproof rating is important for the longevity and use of your rechargeable vibrator. We recommend you get a waterproof toy that usually has a rating of IXP7, meaning you can fully submerge it safely in up to 3 feet of water. Thus, a waterproof vibe will allow you to use it in different environments, and is also effortless to clean. There are also splashproof rechargeable sex toys that have an IXP5 rating, meaning you can wash these under running water, being careful not to get water into the control buttons or in the charging port.
Types of Rechargeable Vibrators
The rechargeable vibes come in an excellent and exciting variety, and here are some of the models we carry for you:
Benefits of Using a Rechargeable Vibrator
The question “Why use a rechargeable vibrator?” has a simple answer – it is more reliable, more versatile, and more comfortable to use such a sex toy and let’s face it, it is more fun. The rechargeable vibes come with a more significant number of vibrating patterns and intensities, and you can employ more playing options.
Use the low settings on your rechargeable bullet vibe to tease yourself or your partner’s erogenous zones, or use it during sex to enhance the pleasure. The same goes for any vibrating toy you have, as you can use the low buzzing settings to tease and arouse and use the high vibrating settings to go over the crest.
Another thing where the rechargeable vibes outplay their battery-powered counterparts is that these not only have higher intensities, but when the battery level falls, they don’t lose their vibrating power instantly but will slowly lose power. Some models also come with a battery level indicator, so you’ll know when it is time to recharge them and see when they are fully charged and ready to go.
Tips for Using a Rechargeable Vibrator
Here, we need to share some essential tips on how you can use your rechargeable vibe with ease and for maximum pleasure:
- Charge the toy fully – some rechargeable toys come partially charged, and you need to charge them fully to get the toy’s maximum potential. So, when you get your new toy delivered, first place it on the charger, per the manufacturer’s instructions, and wait for it to fully charge. Please note that the initial charging usually takes longer, while subsequent charges will take less time. The usual charging time of most rechargeable vibrators is about 1.5 to 2 hours.
- Learn the controls – after you charge the toy, you need to test the controls and learn what each button does. Always scroll through all the patterns and intensities so you know what to expect and when to apply each option. Some rechargeable sex toys come with a boost button that you can press when you need the turbo power to get you over the edge.
- Add lube – we recommend you add lube any time you use a vibrating toy. The lube will make things more comfortable, mainly when you apply the vibrations to the clit, the vagina, the testicles, or the perineum. The lube acts as cushioning and protects the clitoris from excess rubbing, providing an overall more pleasurable experience. We advise you to stick to water-based lube that works with all sex toy materials and all skin types and is perfect for vaginal use.
- Experiment & Enjoy – don’t be shy, but experiment with your rechargeable vibrator. Test its options and see what pleasures await you. The toy’s design is crucial here, as a small bullet vibe is handy for foreplay, while a G-spot or a rabbit vibe means more pleasurable masturbation. At the same time, an insertable or wearable vibrating egg can also be used during partnered sex.
- Clean your toy – always clean your toy before and after use. You can give it a thorough cleaning after use, wash your rechargeable vibe with sex toy cleaner and warm water, and you can store it in a safe sex toy storage bag. This way, it will be ready for you the next time you want to use it, and you can wipe it with an antibacterial wipe, and it will be prepared to use.
