Just like our other tDCS devices, The Brain Stimulator v3.0 uses a standard 9-volt battery. But to improve efficiency, special voltage boosting technology has been implemented, allowing the device to operate internally at a full 12-volts (+/-0.5V). So regardless of the electrode position you’re using, you can be sure the device will produce accurate current. Additionally, we reprogrammed The Brain Stimulator to include a “constant-voltage” system so the device operates continuously at 12-volts, regardless of battery health. This means that, unlike other tDCS devices, you will receive the same level of effectiveness out of The Brain Stimulator v3.0 each and every time you turn it on.

The Brain Stimulator v3.0 features intermediate current stepping in-between the four selectable current options. In other words, when you increase the stimulation current from 0.5mA to 1.0mA, the current output pauses momentarily at 0.75mA before reaching 1.0mA. This provides for smoother transitions and an incredibly comfortable tDCS experience. Additionally, you can put away that kitchen timer because we integrated a 30-minute session timer! This new feature gently lowers the output current and turns off the device once the time limit has been reached.

Finally, we've included some of the most advanced safety features in the industry, such as Reverse Battery Protection, which prevents the device from operating should the battery be installed incorrectly. Over-Current Protection, which prevents the device from ever exceeding 2.25mA at any time. Over-Voltage Protection, preventing the device from ever exceeding 13-volts at any time, and of course, the 30-minute session & safety timer. Once the time limit is reached, the device will slowly ramp down the current and power off the device.
