  The at-home devices are available online and typically range in cost from as little as $40 to around $500
  
  these are a scam, then. made to cash in on the idea of direct brain stimulation while doing basically nothing. 
  your brain is wrapped in a substantial layer of strongly insulating bone. making an electrical device that can safely overcome that resistance is hard enough. I don't know that you could make such a device for $40. 
  what you could easily do is make a piece of junk that passes a superficial current across your scalp, maybe gives you some tingles too convince you it's doing something.
  more importantly, if they could make these devices so cheaply, they'd undercut every medical device suppliers in the country.

  Fox said he would prefer that people interested in brain stimulation use it under medical supervision.
  
  We're too broke for that, dude. >

  Wait what? I can buy something that'll send a mild shock to my barely reinforced thinking sponge??? Sign me up mofucka!
  Seriously, is this legit? I have a bunch of 9volts that might save me a few bucks. Should I start licking these like it's honey or what? >
  
  Only to test them.
  Here's how to interpret the results.
  *Nothing, just feels like putting your tongue on a spoon or something: battery is completely dead
  *You can sort of "taste" something sour or acid-y: battery is weak
  *A noticeable sting: battery is good but not 100% charged
  *A noticeable sting and your tongue twitches a little: battery is perfectly charged >
  
  dude how powerful are your batteries tf >
  
  Always have to check to make sure your car battery isn’t dead. >
  
  You best start believing in cyberpunk dystopias >
