Current Strength
edit"The voltage is 5–15 V and peak current is 1.0–1.5 A."
This can't be true. Lethal current is about 100 mA (0.1 A). Also heads resistance is not even nearly low enough to create such high currents with 15 volts. http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Electric_shock

- It should be mA instead of A. But while this might be a common current for tACS, it doesn't have to me 1 - 1.5 mA. --2003:51:4B36:AF00:5015:9BD1:FDD9:4A3F (talk) 20:17, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
what purpose and what frequencies
editWhy do this (eg research, diagnosis, therapy) ? and what frequencies are used for different purposes ? Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS). Antal 2013 looks useful. - Rod57 (talk) 02:28, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
