ORIGINAL: celticlord2112 The idea itself wasn't stupid--but the implementation was. With proper TENS unit, electrical play can be done with fairly low risk of death. Ahh, but in the U.S., you're supposed to have a prescription for those. Wouldn't want anybody hurting themselves, yanno Actually, Extreme Restraints sells a fairly respectable device for around $250. No Rx required. Oh, i know there are plenty of ways around it. However, a lot of medical supply sites refuse to sell them without a prescription, and ebay is rather vigorous about killing auctions for TENS boxes. You certainly can't pick one up at the local pharmacy, or get them near anywhere cost (based on the electronics involved, i guess the basic two-channel model is down to $18 or so, fresh off the boat from Ghangzhou) Friggin' AMA. i used to wonder how they could sleep at night. Then i realized: on a huge pile of hundred-dollar bills. Just have the help fan the rotting-corpse smell away. If one is sufficiently knowlegdeable about electronics, building an effective but relatively non-lethal device would not be hard--nor that expensive. The key word there, of course, is "if". Personally, I would rather spend the extra $$ and buy pre-made.
