Pad Placement Query
Posted: Tue Jan 02, 2024 11:15 pm
Sorry to be a nuisance with the rambly post.
I have acquired a conventional domestic TENS unit with multiple channels -- ( tinyurl.com/auvontens ) at a discounted price before the New Year, thought it a good idea rather than sinking more money into a more expensive 'made-for-play' unit without prior experience).
Newbie questions:
1) Let's say, for instance, I placed A1 above the penis and A2 on the perineum, will the current only take a direct path from positive to negative (hopefully through the prostate), or disperse somewhat, stimulating the surrounding areas? (How much dispersion occurs?)
2) Let's also say that at the same time I hook up B1 on my left inner thigh and B 2 on my right, with the intention of a path from thigh to thigh via genital region, but say B1 is positive and A1 negative, will this cause a diversion of the current away from the above intended paths?
In other words:
If I have four pads (A1, A2, B1, 2B) arranged as the points on a diamond, positive and negative from each channel opposite each other, will the current from A1 (+) flow to A2 (-) through the middle of the shape, or will it flow to terminate at 2B, taking a path along the perimeter of the shape? (Thus the interior of the shape is not stimulated.)
Will the current flow from a positive node of A channel to the negative of B channel, ie forming a circuit to the nearest negative node, regardless of being from a different channel on the power box?
How would you recommend setting the pads of this device up for first time use?
Particularly for use in conjunction with a thrusting/vibrating prostate massager (non-e-stim).
Was also wondering what the relevance of AC versus DC is for e-stim, and whether a conventional domestic TENS unit typically outputs AC or DC.
Which is the best for erotic stimulation?
Sorry, I don't understand anything about electricity. I have been lurking enough to know the safety basics etc. but a bit confused as to how the flow of current works, particularly in the four-pad design described where the paths could interfere(?).
Looking forward to responses.
