I've used them. And I know enough about electricity and the conductive properties of the body to know that a) No one can guarantee you that any electrical activity is 100%, guaranteed safe. b) But if done properly (and I'll explain my definition of "properly"), it's "safe enough for me". (And I'm paranoid.) All my estim power boxes are ErosTek. Every one of them has two outputs, and every one of them has completely isolated outputs. (Each output is two wires. You can think of them as a positive and a negative, even though they're AC. "Completely isolated" means that power only flows from A+ to A-, and from B+ to B-. It cannot go from A+ to B-, for example.) I've used these electrodes: Folsom (I think I bought them from a different company, but it was those electrodes.) Those electrodes look kind of like the traditional "aligator clip". But the two halves of the clip are the two electrodes. So the power only flows from one side of the electrode to the other. Now, I consider this use to be safe. But I didn't consider it to work very well. For one thing, the contact area of the clips are very small, and they have a heck of a "grip". In short, they hurt quite a bit, just when you clip them on. (And my nipples are about half dead from playing so hard. Most nipple clamps don't hurt me at all.) And, in my experience, the estim rarely worked. Often, no matter how I dialed it up, no feeling at all. I assume that that was because my nipples have lost a lot of sensation, or because when clipped on, the two electrodes were so close together that there just wasn't any sensitive tissue in the path. On the occasions when it worked, it was a really intense experience. But it worked so rarely that I've pretty much abandoned it. Of course, your nipples may vary.
