The Arcwave Ion 2 is a male masturbator that you don’t stroke. Inside the soft silicone sleeve, Pleasure Air sends pulses of air pressure, and you hold the toy still while it works.
It is one of the most bought male toys right now: Lovehoney US ranks it #10 in its Top 10 sex toys for him. Beyond the air pulses, the Arcwave Ion 2 adds Smart Silence and an Autopilot mode.
PLEASURE AIR INSTEAD OF STROKING
Most masturbators need you to move them. The Ion 2 does the work with air pressure while you hold it. You set one of 8 intensity levels with + and −, or press the A button for Autopilot, which runs through 3 modes on its own.
SMART SILENCE AND AUTOPILOT
With Smart Silence, stimulation only starts once the Pleasure Air sensor is fully covered. Arcwave says this makes it more discreet in use. Autopilot hands control to the toy, so you can stop thinking about the buttons.

CLEANING: TWIST, RINSE, DRY
Twist the top to open the toy and rinse the sleeve. Both parts are IPX7, so once separated they can go under water. The DryTech stick takes out the last water droplets so the sleeve stays in good condition. Use water-based lube only: Arcwave warns against silicone lube, perfumed or alcohol-based lubes and massage oils.

ARCWAVE ION 2: COMMON QUESTIONS
How is the Arcwave Ion 2 different from a regular stroker?
It doesn’t need stroking. It uses Pleasure Air, pulses of air pressure inside the sleeve, while you hold the toy still.
What does Smart Silence do?
The Arcwave Ion 2 won’t start until the Pleasure Air sensor is fully covered, so it stays quiet until it’s on you and pauses when you take it off.
How do I clean it?
Twist the top to open it and rinse the sleeve with water. Arcwave says both the device and the sleeve are IPX7, so once separated you can submerge them to clean. The DryTech stick removes the last drops.
How long does the battery last?
Up to 90 minutes per charge, and a full charge takes about 120 minutes on the magnetic cable. The LED flashes when the battery drops below 25%.
Which lube should I use?
Arcwave recommends a water-based lube. Avoid silicone-based lube, perfumed or alcohol-based lubes and massage oils, which can damage the sleeve.
What’s the warranty?
Arcwave lists a 2-year warranty on the Ion 2.
