Materials And Design

These insulator and conductive rubber loop combinations are made from several body-safe materials. The plastic insulator bodies are made from PLA or vapour-smoothed ABS depending on the model. The conductive rubber loops are made from high-quality British conductive rubber.

Conductive rubber (a silicone elastomer) is created with carbon particles suspended within the silicone blend; this carbon element turns silicone into conductive silicone. In use, some black residue may be seen on your fingers or other body parts; this is normal and a result of outer layers of carbon shedding due to stretching and flexing.

The plastic insulators are used to better control the current flow and isolate nerve groups such as the dorsal nerve, allowing you to create interesting current paths.

General Safety Considerations
DO NOT CONNECT ANY ELECTRICAL DEVICE TO ANY LOCATION ABOVE THE WAIST (ACROSS THE ARMS COUNTS AS ABOVE THE WAIST!), BUT ESPECIALLY DO NOT CONNECT ACROSS THE HEART (FRONT TO BACK, OR SIDE TO SIDE), CHEST, NECK OR HEAD. DO NOT USE IF FITTED WITH A PACEMAKER OR OTHER ELECTRONIC MEDICAL IMPLANT, ARE EPILEPTIC OR ARE OR MAYBE PREGNANT. REMEMBER YOU USE THIS DEVICE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Instructions For Use

Fitting

You must ensure that your control box is switched off and power level knobs are set to their minimum position before fitting electrodes! A second electrode will need to be used to create a circuit when using a monopole electrode.

  1. Attach one of your channel plugs to one end of the conductive rubber tubing. Note: Only fit one plug from a channel into each electrode, or you will create a short. This will mean you do not feel anything. You also risk damaging your control box if you create a short in this way.
  2. Apply conductive gel/lube to the contact surfaces touching your skin.
  3. Slide the loop into place and adjust the conductive rubber to achieve a snug fit. If needed, apply extra conductive gel during your session.
  4. Turn on your control box and adjust your controls.
  5. Enjoy and adjust the fit of your electrode during the session if required.

 Removal

  1. Ensure the output of your control box is set to zero, and ideally, switch off the control box before removing your electrodes.
  2. Unplug your cable, loosen your electrode and remove it.
  3. Wipe down the electrode to remove excess conductive gel.

Cleaning

Wash in warm, soapy water and dry the electrode before storing it until your next session. The conductive rubber can be removed to aid cleaning, but when refitting it, use a push-pull action to minimise stretching of the conductive rubber. Do not use abrasive or caustic materials on the conductive rubber or plastic components.
