How To Electrify Your Brain To Be Smarter With a 9-Volt Battery

Transcranial direct current stimulation DIY tDCS User-Built tDCS Research Device | SpeakWisdom I’ve been tinkering with tDCS for several months now – including doing lots of reading and building of prototype devices. I also have a number of friends who are giving it a try. Along the way I’ve learned a number of things that could be useful to others: 1. Read, read, read. Lots of tDCS articles and dialog are on the web and more every day. 2. 3. 4. 5. tDCS devices built around the LM334 seem to work very well and provide very smooth adjustments to current level 6. In conjunction with the above, here is the schematic I use to build devices to tinker with. (This is my favorite design. (Almost done. (Completed except for labeling. (Digital meter in place of analog.) (Same basic design, just digital mA meter.) And finally, here is a link to a bit of doc I’ve written for use with the home-built tDCS research device and ActivaDose II. Comments and suggestions are welcome. Like this:
