I looked into estim a few years ago. I made my own electrodes, and since I'm a guy, you know where I put them. I'll get back into it someday, but I can tell you it was something. I can also tell you there is a threshold you don't want to cross. I had urethral electrodes, and that can be quite sensitive.
My generator is a Wavetek model 111, which is for electronics, not this. I think it goes up to around 30-40 volta output. It has sine, square and triangle waveshape outputs, and they each feel different at different frequencies. The square and triangle waves "bite" but with the level and the frequency set right, were "awesome" as much as I hate to use the word.
The sine wave which has no harmonics was the most comfortable. It seemed the higher the frequency the higher output level required. It seemed to penetrate a different way though, something that is difficult to even begin to describe.
It still takes two wires to make a circuit, and the urethral electrode was only one. I tried a few things around the glans and wherever, but it all seemed like the contact area was too small. Finally I made some pads. Strips of tape, made into a sheet several widths wide. I stuck a smaller area of multi layer clothe or paper towels to them, smaller than the whole pad of tape, and then wet the tissue/cloth with salted water. Now down there they can be applied to the upper legs or butt, and seem quite safe because it is nowhere near the heart.
This would not be possible for the nipples, and that is a big problem. The most effective electrode is the smallest. Small ones almost anywhere can burn or whatever, this is from not making good enough contact. Well with the pads, all you feel is the small electrode because of the smaller contact area.
Aside from being a floating source, one electrode must be the "ground". It simply must efficiently source or sink the current, while the working end must have really good contact, the smaller it is, the more concentrated the effect. You can equalize the size of the electrodes and have two of course. But on the nipples with one channel the danger is obvious. So chucking that plan for eternity, you are left with the option of providing that "ground" on the front of the body, as close to the "working" electrode(s) as possible.
The magic wand effectively uses the whole body as a ground because it puts our RF. Your body is effectiviely an antenna, and the load it presents is the ground.
Tell you what everyone, if you decide to try some home brew contraption, I urge you to post or send me a drawing of it before you try it. I have been working with electricity and electronics for over thirty years now, and I have one thing to say : You don't want to learn a healthy respect for electricity the hard way.
And when it comes to electrodes, if you saw the movie The Green Mile and understand why that original warden had to leave, you know what I mean. A solid connection is essential.

All the accounts that I've heard of people being injured have involved the use of power sources not designed for estim....there are people who certainly manage but it's not something that I'll ever try. So good luck with that.
