    How is that one you got there? Effective?

    I still get lasting and nagging pain in the upper back neck area, obviously from my neck surgeries combined with sitting upright, likely improperly. I've been told that these things are great for such pains. That's not a bad price at all for finally getting myself one. I'm a wimp, so if running for a tad, I'll also have 'er on a very low setting!

    Use a heating pad that can be damped.
    Never use salve when using the Pad, such as 'Icy-Hot'.
    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    It works great! You can use 2, 4 or all 6 of the pads, and it has a bunch of different patterns for electro-massage. I use it all the time, and the pads are super sticky and you can use them over and over, and the battery seems to last forever before you have to recharge it.

    They say that electro-massage will even block the pain signal going to the brain, so that's another plus. I had a cervical discectomy on my neck so I suffer from almost constant neck pain, and it feels great when I use it on that. When my back hurts, depends on how many pads I use. I usually use 4, but have used just 2, not so great for the back, and all 6, and that feels awesome.

    Yeah that's a great little unit, easy to use, great price, I'd recommend it. They do caution about hooking it up going across you heart.

    Years ago we had a black lab rotweiller mix named Bear that loved to wander off and too many times to count I would get calls to come get him. We put electrical wire along our fencing around three sides of property and put in an invisible fence across the driveway that worked with a shock collar to warn him when he was getting close to fence.

    Worked good most of time ... but when he saw something that excited him he would run right through it (weighed 120 lbs). We couldn't max it out because we had mini schnauzer (weighed 12 lbs) on it as well.

    When Bear decided to eventually come home he would not be as excited and would just mosey on down the driveway and then refused to cross the fence. So during these times we received calls from neighbors to shut the dog up because he would sit at end of driveway and bark to let him back inside.

    We finally fenced in the front of property and put in electric gate to access property. That didn't settle him down because he would jump fence. My hubby was deployed for awhile and I asked him frequently if I could have him neutered. Nope, not going to do that!

    Well, within a week after he got home Bear lost his wanderlust ... it only took three times of hubby getting up in middle of night to go get his dog before he was neutered!
