TES carbon electrodes

Post by Karen »

Has anyone found an alternative place to order the self sticking carbon electrodes besides Mayatek? They have recently had a price increase and we do not get any insurance help.

Thanks
Karen

Karen, my DME provider through insurance has to order them for me through Mayatek. I personally don't know of any other company that makes them.If anyone does it would be nice but since Mayatek makes the machine it's not likely.LeeAnne

Karen, wanted to let you know that if you use the carbons and you rip off the gel layer once it's had it...and start using TAC GEL as the adhesive- the carbons can last for about a year or so! Ain't no better deal than that!

TAC GEL is the only ADHESIVE out there right now - the best price I've found for it is at Scrip Inc. (the other gels listed there are NOT adhesive gels)

Here's the link to Scrip...
