Choosing the right male masturbator comes down to how you like to be stimulated. Every toy in the Arcwave collection is made with CleanTech silicone, a non-porous material that doesn't hold onto bacteria the way porous materials can. That makes these toys easy to wash and keep fresh.
Every toy in this guide is water-resistant or waterproof, so you can use them in the shower or bathtub and submerge them fully for cleaning.
All listed measurements are approximate.

Deep Dive: How to Choose Your Arcwave Toy
1. Select Your Stimulation Style
- Focused Frenulum Stimulation: Arcwave Ion 2 focuses on the frenulum, the sensitive spot just under the head of the penis. Instead of friction, it uses rhythmic air pulses for a sensation that feels different from a standard stroker.
- Customizable Grip and Tightness: Arcwave Voy has a manual tightness adjustment band. Men can twist through eight pressure levels to go from a gentle hold to a firm, tight fit.
- Controllable Vacuum Suction: Arcwave Pow uses a manual air release valve. Men can place a finger over the valve while stroking to change the suction strength from a light pull to an intense vacuum seal.
- Open Design and Deep Vibration: Arcwave Zing uses an open-sleeve design. Men can easily shift focus between the tip, shaft and frenulum while dual motors deliver deep vibration.
- Simple, Friction-Driven Play: Arcwave Ghost is a simple, no-fuss sleeve with two internal textures. Men can flip the sleeve inside out to switch textures and change up the sensation.
2. Power Dynamics: Motorized vs. Manual Control
- Powered Toys (Ion 2 and Zing): These are made for men who want automated variety. Ion 2 has smart autopilot modes that cycle through low, medium and high patterns. Its Smart Silence skin sensors turn it on only when it makes contact with your body. Zing offers 10 vibration patterns and 10 intensity levels using dual We-Vibe motors.
- Manual Control (Voy, Pow and Ghost): These toys are battery-free and always ready to use. They need no charging, operate silently and give men full control over speed, stroke depth and squeeze pressure.
3. Size, Storage and Discretion
- Ion 2 Storage: Arcwave Ion 2 measures 6.0 x 2.0 x 3.3 inches. It sits on a charging and storage base that looks like a sleek, modern item on a nightstand, so your privacy stays intact.
- Voy Storage: Arcwave Voy measures 3.3 x 4.5 inches and fits in the palm of your hand. It includes two protector lids with ventilation channels so it can air-dry quickly in a bedside drawer.
- Pow Storage: Arcwave Pow measures 2.8 x 7.1 inches to allow a longer, full-length stroke. It includes quick-dry ventilation lids to protect the inner chamber when it's not in use.
- Ghost Storage: Arcwave Ghost measures 1.6 x 3.9 inches. This lightweight, pocket-sized sleeve comes with a slim, ventilated travel case for easy storage on the go.
- Zing Sizing: Arcwave Zing measures 4.4 x 2.4 x 2.4 inches. The flexible opening has a relaxed diameter of about 1.3 inches and stretches to comfortably fit different sizes.
4. Cleaning and Lube
- Twist-to-Open Sleeve: Arcwave Ion 2 has a quick twist-to-open design, so you can separate the silicone sleeve and rinse it off.
- Quick Clean Helix: Arcwave Pow has a spiral shape inside the sleeve that lets you flush it clean under running water in seconds without removing the sleeve.
- Simple Washing: Arcwave Voy and Ghost have no electronic parts. Wash them with warm water and mild soap or toy cleaner.
- Zing Washing: Arcwave Zing has built-in motors, but like every toy in this guide it's made to handle water. Wash it with warm water and mild soap or toy cleaner.
- Use Water-Based Lube: Silicone and hybrid lubes can damage silicone toys over time, so stick with water-based lube for every Arcwave toy. Voy even comes with a small bottle of Arcwave water-based lube. Not sure which lube to choose? Check out our Lube Compatibility Guide.
