Sex toy cams

In these rooms the tip jar is wired to the show. The model wears an interactive toy that reacts to tips: a small tip gives a short, gentle buzz, a large one a longer and stronger reaction. Everyone in the room sees the effect, and the viewer who sent the tip knows exactly what he caused.

Lovense cams: the best-known interactive toy

Lovense is the brand most models use, to the point that viewers say "Lovense cams" for the whole category. The toy pairs with the cam site, which reads incoming tips and translates them into vibration. Other brands work the same way. Whichever is in use, the model publishes her levels in the room: a table of tip ranges with the intensity and duration each one triggers.

Interactive toy cams: reading the levels

Levels climb in steps. The lowest is a few tokens for a second or two. The highest is a long, strong pattern, sometimes with a special name. Some models add random levels or a "control" option: tip a set amount and you steer the toy from your own screen for a minute or more. Our tipping guide explains how to read a menu like this without overspending, and how tokens work covers what a token costs you.

Where to find them

LiveJasmin, Camsoda and the Streamate network reached our counting ceiling for the sex toy tag in the first readings; ImLive had about a dozen. The table below shows the averages.

Do you have to tip?

No. You can watch a toy show for free while others tip, and many viewers do. The room is more fun when you take part, though, and a tip of a few tokens is enough to see how it works. Live chat rooms explains what you can do in public chat before spending.
