Welcome to the Yahoo Microelectricitygermkiller group. We all hope you enjoy this, benefit, and are inspired. The sections of files and photos contain a wealth of info. If you experience any effects, good bad or none, it is crucial to report here, with as many relevant facts as possible. This is so others can have a better start in their efforts than just trying something already tried as if it were brand new. New members are moderated awhile until they post results, then usually allowed to post freely. Off-topics, and ads are dropped, and spam results in banning the member from the group. WARNING: No medical advice. We can't even say what is the "right" way to use these devices for medical conditions. FDA approval is needed ("safe and effective") before any device can be sold legally. The most frequent question is "what's the difference between this and other devices?" To help answer that,here's a note from Dick Rochon, a longtime pioneering member here, and a very nice guy: "Date: Mon Nov 25, 2002 10:18 am There is the "Clark Zapper", which originally was a 30,000 hz, dc device, which means that it cycled on and off 30,000 times a second, but did not alternate from positive to negative, just on and off to the same polarity. Dr. Clarks son now says that 2500 cycles might be more effective, and there are now Zappers with dual frequencies. They are usually used with the electrodes held in each hand, or applied anywhere on the body. The "Beck Blood Electrifier" originally was a 4 hz, alternating current device (it changes the current from positive to negative and back, four times a second), which was applied over the arteries on the wrist or ankles. Many users have modified this unit by adding various other frequencies, such as 100hz, 16hz, 1/30hz, etc. , for more effectiveness and fewer side effects. The "Godzilla" is simply four 9v batteries, in series, with various resistors and rheostats (variable resistors) which are also called potentiometers or pots, for safety and control of current. Some users have also added a meter, so current can be monitored accurately. They put out a direct current (DC), which is manually switched at least every 5 minutes to the opposite polarity (from positive to negative, for example). Current is applied to the arteries in the wrists or ankles, like with the Beck. The "Rife" machines are very complicated and expensive, but they can be constructed from old computers. They use various frequencies that have been claimed effective in destroying bacteria, virus and molds and other pathogens like , tumors and parasites. Although many people are doing experiments, I personally have not read of any "cures" from present day Rife machines. At the present time the Godzilla is the one that we hold out most hope for. It is cheap and easy to build ... uses DC current which is reversed about every five minutes, either by hand or in more advanced models, automatically. Hope this clarifies things. Dick" I want to add a few notes here to Dick's summary: Electrodes touch the body and deliver the current. It is crucial that they be sized, shaped, and applied correctly. Just wrapping a contact around the wrist, will NOT deliver current into the bloodstream, and handheld electrodes are even less effective. The diseases hep-c, and HIV specifically require pads on the intestinal area for HIV and the liver for Hep-c (or any hep). With best wishes, baby_grand (bob luhrs)
