Jeff sent me a EV-806A tENS device pre-configured at 40 Hz, a Zeo along with some replacement sensors, a Yocto PowerRelay, a Bluetooth speaker and over 50 electrodes – early Christmas at the lab!

Hi again!
I will try to assemble a similar device myself (finally) and I would appreciate some help!
For now, just 2 questions: have you set the device in TENS or EMS mode, or in manual settings there is no difference? Also, the amplitude is in 2 mA like in Jeff’s setup?
Thanks!
It is set to EMS mode at 2 mA.
Thanks! Best of luck with your trial!
Hi, do you Have any updates on this experiment? Did you replicate Jeffs results?
Many lucid Dreamers – including myself – are waiting for your results!
Thank you!
I have not yet replicated the results, but have everything ready now and believe I am close. The Zeo Stage channel was giving me stick and not triggering! But that is finally working. Here are some of the other things I had to tweak: https://lucidcode.com/category/software/lucid-scribe-plugins/zeo-eeg/.
I have recorded many nights with the Zeo (but without 40 Hz or lucidity) and posted one of the better sessions: http://lsdbase.org/2014/10/06/2014-10-06-climbing-bpm/.
This is what my setup looks like now:

And this was an earlier version with the OpenEEG:

I also ran into some interference issues where the Zeo EEG picked up noise from being plugged into the EV-806A, even when it was off. So I am now also using the big electrodes to deliver the 40 Hz with the Zeo setup.
I had also thought about interference issues with Jeff’s setup but since he didn’t mention anything, I assumed it was fine…
Thanks for sharing your progress and pics!
Sure! Jeff is using an Arduino in his setup in place of the USB PowerRelay that I am using. Perhaps that doesn’t interfere.
