The DGLab Coyote 3 Estim Control Box is a powerful, compact device loved for its wireless features, customizable waveforms, and advanced control options. But if you’re pairing it with E-Stim Systems electrodes, you might hit a slight snag: incompatible connectors. Don’t worry—this post walks you through exactly how to connect these high-end products safely and effectively.
What You’ll Need
- DGLab Coyote 3 Estim Control Box.
- E-Stim Systems electrodes (e.g., insertables, pads, or surface electrodes).
- E-Stim Systems connection cables (typically ending in 3.5mm mono plugs), or a 2mm to 4mm adaptor if using the wires that come with the Coyote.
- If using E-Stim Systems cables, a 3.5mm mono female to 2.5mm mono male adapter (one per channel you plan to use) is required.
- Conductive gel or lube (for insertables or pads).
- A fully charged Coyote 3.
Equipment Recommendations
A superb cable option when using E-Stim Systems' bipolar electrodes is the Low Profile 4mm Cable.
You will need a 2mm to 4mm adaptor if you are using the Coyote cables
Getting some 4mm Low-Profile Adaptors is an excellent idea, as it makes sitting with the electrodes inserted a simple task.
Step-by-Step Setup Guide
1. Understand the Connector Types
- The Coyote 3’s output sockets are 2.5mm mono (not 3.5mm as commonly found in other e-stim gear).
- E-Stim Systems cables typically terminate in 3.5mm mono plugs.
- This means you need a 3.5mm mono female to 2.5mm mono male adapter to bridge the gap.
Important: While mono (2-pole) adapters are best, you can also use stereo (3-pole) adapters.
2. Connect the Cables
- Ensure the Coyote is switched off.
- Plug the E-Stim Systems cable’s 3.5mm mono plug into the female side of the adapter.
- Insert the 2.5mm male end into one of the channel outputs on the Coyote 3.
- Repeat for the second channel if you’re using dual-channel play.
3. Attach the Electrodes
- Connect the electrode(s) to the opposite ends of the E-Stim Systems cables.
- Apply conductive gel or lube generously if using insertable or skin play electrodes. Electrogel is not needed for self-adhesive electrodes.
- Position electrodes correctly based on the type (monopolar vs. bipolar) and intended effect.
4. Power On and Configure
- Turn on the Coyote 3 and access the control menu (locally or via Bluetooth on your phone/tablet through its app).
- Choose a waveform mode and start at the lowest intensity setting.
- Slowly increase until the desired sensation is achieved.
General Safety Tips
- Never place electrodes above the waist unless you are confident that you know your equipment and your abilities.
- Use only approved adapters and cables to avoid damage or unintended stimulation.
- Clean all components thoroughly after each use.
- Start slow—the Coyote 3 is powerful, and intensity builds quickly, especially with metal electrodes.
Wrapping Up
While the DGLab Coyote 3 and E-Stim Systems gear use different connection standards, a simple mono adapter makes them completely compatible. Once connected, you can enjoy the best of both worlds: the Coyote’s advanced features and E-Stim Systems’ trusted electrodes.
Whether you’re an experienced e-stim enthusiast or just starting to experiment with electroplay, setting up your gear properly takes a few moments and ensures a safer, smoother, and more enjoyable experience.
