Nadia Bokody has been exploring sex and debunking several myths over the years, meaning she has built up a relatively large collection of sex toys.Despite her being an expert, she admits she's made the odd mistake along the way, with the Australian star confession her big sex toy error.Writing for The Daily Telegraph Australia, she said: ''About a year ago now, I made a terrible, terrible mistake."In her account of events, she explained that when leaving her apartment, she had gone through the usual list of to-dos."I closed my apartment’s blinds, double-checked the oven and hair straightener were off, and lovingly placed my favourite vibrator in its charging dock," she said.However, the vibrator move turned out to her crucial mishap, as back then she "still wasn’t aware of one of the biggest rules of vibrator ownership".This rule, she said, is to "never, ever leave a vibe on charge for more than two hours".She added: "Though it’s scandalously uncommon knowledge, most sex toys contain lithium-ion batteries – the same kind you’ll find in your laptop – which are sensitive to lengthy charging."Leaving your vibrator plugged in overnight, or for an entire weekend, can create an unstable environment inside the battery, increasing pressure and ultimately putting your vibe at risk of burning out."She says this means you could break your vibrator or significantly shorten its lifespan.Nadia also gave another sex toy tip, saying you should wait until the battery is low, but not dead, before you charge.She said this is because charging a vibrator from 0% can be just as damaging - so it's worth investing in a toy that has an indicator light to let you know when it’s getting close to running out.Nadia said those who really want to make.
