super conductive
This thing feels at a 6 the same as the sticky pads for my tens unit feel at a 20 (max) wet the pads on it and sprits with conductive spray. its intense!

Not bad
It works well until it starts to dry out. I got it to wear to work discreetly, but because you have to re-wet it, it isn’t the best choice for work. Part of the problem is that you have to wet the pads but it also gets the strap wet. Obviously that soaks into your clothing. It would be nice if there were some kind of sponge or pad with a waterproof backing that could hold the water and keep it from your clothing. It still works, but maybe not for use in public.

Winner
I love it. It does the job of the individual pads. I plan to use this when we travel (plane seats are uncomfortable to me) so I’m always suffering with back pain. It is getting to be a hassle putting on four pads, now just need to apply water soluble lubricant (if you don’t, it will feel like an electrical shock or pinching) and wrap belt around my waist. Recommend this belt highly, worth the money.

Had to use electrode gell to get a slight connection.
Great idea and concept however the leads that came with this had a small tube at the end with a hole.bthe hole didn’t connect to the leads I have. The leads I have did connect to the belt itself but I couldn’t get a connection even full strength. Then I added some electrode gell under the belt on my skin pretty thick and even then I could barely get anything. my unit is only two years old so I’m not sure if my unit is out of date or what exactly is the issue.

Does not work at all
I had high hopes that this would be an easier way for me to use my TENS/EMS on my back, but it simply does not work at all. It hooks up easily, straps on easily, but even with 2 different units hooked up to it and turned all the way up, you feel nothing at all. The instructions say it can be used wet or dry, and they recommend using an electrolyte spray for best results which I did not do, but I should still be able to feel at least a little something yet I don’t. This was a total waste.

Easy To Use And Works Great
This waist brace makes it easy to use your existing TENS machine on your sore back, just attach your TENS machine to the brace then cinch the brace around your waist. Once in place you can choose the settings you want and sit down and relax while it goes to work stimulating those back areas that have been so hard to reach.I took the manufacturer’s advice and used an electrolyte spray to dampen the silver pads before I put the brace on and it worked perfectly for me, I only had to use a setting of three (out of ten on my TENS) to get the stimulation I wanted. If you don’t have any, the spray is available on Amazon and is not expensive.The brace comes complete with a short cord snapped on it which has an adapter at the end so you can use your existing TENS machine if it has a plug-in connector, or you can remove the short cord and simply snap your existing TENS cords to the brace.This brace is a welcome solution to the problem of how to use my TENS machine on my sore back when there is no one who can help me get the sticky pads in place.

Nice idea for a longer lasting tens electrode pad, weak buttons caused the unit to fail too fast.
The strap worked for a few minutes, I just used some water to help with conductivity, which usually works fine, though it says to use gel, and it felt pretty good for a few minutes similar to the silicon pads, however after a few uses the ‘snap on’ button failed and completely broke/fell off, I tried pressing it back on but ultimately keeps falling off, the material is a nylon band type material that’s kind of elastic and just one end has the Velcro hoops, which can be confusing when trying to wrap it, the strap is a big size and should fit most people’s waistline, the electrodes are nicely spaced for back usage.Overall I don’t recommend at this time, while I do like the product idea, the button failed within minutes rendering the whole strap inoperable, it also needed a strong tens machine to push enough current through, once they fix the button issue I think it would be a good product, and would be a nice alternative to the silicone pads that constantly need replacing…

Nice Addition to the Collection
If you’re here, chances are you have an ever-growing collection of TENS-related items. Yeah… Me too, thanks to a decades-old back injury. Not having a TENS belt yet, I jumped at the chance to request one when I saw this available on Amazon Vine. I’m glad I got it.The belt is elastic in its entirety and 2″ tall. It attaches to itself by hook and loop. Although it attaches securely, the hook portion is only 1.5″; a bigger hook portion would go a long way in the perceived stability of the belt.As it is, I won’t be wearing it out of the house, but it will get plenty of use while I’m at the computer, watching TV, or even doing low-impact chores.To get a good level of stimulation from my TENS unit, a light misting of water over the silver electrodes of the belt is enough for at least one hour of use, so I haven’t had to use conductive gel. If I’m going to reposition the belt to a different area, I reapply water first.In my use case, these are the benefits: I can put this belt on (and adjust it to find the “right spot”) faster than adhesive electrodes, and without assistance. This belt will also save money by having to replace said adhesive electrodes less often.This is by no means a “holy grail,” “endgame,” or [whatever] TENS accessory, but I’m happy to have it in my arsenal. I think you would be, too.
