    Iontophoresis Device to treat Hyperhidrosis

    Excellent article found Ramuna, I've read it through. The reason I want to have more current available is: If I have not treated my hands for a few weeks, I have difficulty in conducting more than about 10mA. For some reason, as the treatment progresses, the current rises and needs to be...

    Iontophoresis Device to treat Hyperhidrosis

    The mark II version will use a DC to DC converter, probably at 30 volts to get a little more current. I'm a bit wary of mains units. What did you use to limit the current? LM317? I like the idea of a timer etc...

    Iontophoresis Device to treat Hyperhidrosis

    It's basically 4 x 6 volt lantern batteries in series with a 10k lin pot together with 0 to 30 mA meter in series wired to two stainless trays filled with water. Turning down the current before removing limbs results in no shock. I'm wondering what an electrolytic in parallel with the trays...

    Iontophoresis Device to treat Hyperhidrosis

    That's the set-up I have at the moment. Providing the current is reduced to near zero there is no shock. It would be nice to add something to stop the effect. Do you know why this Electric fence effect happens?

    Iontophoresis Device to treat Hyperhidrosis

    Hello all, I've had a look around the forum and have seen the above subject mentioned, but have a question. I have made my own device to treat this condition and it works well and I am very pleased with it. For those that don't know, Hyperhidrosis is excessive sweating, usually of hands or...
