Novel (or maybe not) uses for...

So, what does this have to do with HAD?I intend to take my love of electrical stimulation to the next level. TENS is fun, as is e-stim, and the always wonderful "violet wand".
Let's discuss TENS breifly. Transcutaneous Electronic Nerve Stimulation. This is a medical equipment device that applies low current signals via a pair of electrodes. These signals interrupt or simulate normal neurological signals. This can be used for chronic pain management, among other uses.For us kinky folks, it can stimulate a number of neurological responses. Literally the full range from ecstacy to agony.
What if, using best practices for the application, I were to use a common off-the-shelf microcontroller and some parts-bin bits to create the same effect? This would allow a nicely open format for signal generation. Sawtooth waves, square waves, sine, etc... Most TENS units operate with one, or maybe two of these features.

just a thought, also... the stack editor gets goofy on firefox for android after the first few lines.
Are you sure? yes | no
same here - also firefox
Are you sure? yes | no
I'll put in a ticket for the bug. fyi - Bugs reported on #Feedback - Hackaday.io are likely to get picked up quicker than on the stack.
