Question 1

How long can electrodes be used?And can electrodes be charging and repeated used?

Accepted Answer

I've found a few ways to keep pads in good shape for about 30 applications.  First you need to be sure to prep your skin by wiping off any moisturizers or lotions from your skin...having lotions on your skin can decrease the effectiveness of the electrodes and decrease the adhesiveness of the electrodes.  Second, always place the electrodes back on the plastic sheets that they were packaged with immediately after use...limiting time exposed to air, dust, dirt, etc...  Third and probably most important is to keep electrodes out of the sun / heat...try to keep them at room temperature 72 degrees or colder. As mentioned I have been able to use my electrodes about 30 times to answer your repeat question.Not sure what you are referring to with regards to "can electrodes be charging"Hope this helps

Question 2

How high can you set it? I've bought hand helds that werent as strong as i need. (I want one that makes my arm twitch like at the physical therapist)

Accepted Answer

Be cautious and start low and gradually intensify. If you get carried away and use too high before you are ready you will be so sore you won’t even believe it. The only effort is dialing up intensity with your finger unlike with neurally mediated contraction and especially on strength and explosive strength programs you recruit very large very powerful motor units that may not get recruited volitionally very often.   What Compex was able to do was to use alternating polarity stimulation so it’s less painful than a Monophasic estim like in PT but don’t let that fool you.

Question 3

Where do you learn where to attach the electrodes for the various functions? The downloadable manual didn't have details about where to attach them.
