Pointer Excel II
The latest and most advanced user friendly hand held locator and stimulator. Features a built-in, 0.35" x 1.0" LCD digital meter which displays both frequency and location.
The meter reading increases in relative value from 1 to 500 (at max sensitivity setting) due to a lowering of the electrical resistance of the skin at the treatment location. Besides the meter, location is also indicated with sound and a pilot light on top of the unit. Location sensitivity is adjustable.
An effective push button adjustable stimulation offers immediate treatment. Based on the setting of the output dial, either normal milli-amp output or micro-amp current output is produced (ie, blue zone on the dial is microamp).
This new device also includes more advanced features. The frequency is adjustable (1 to 16 Hz) and is also displayed on the LCD digital display when the stimulation button is pressed. Furthermore, a polarity reversal switch offers the options of tonification (-) or sedation (+) treatment.
Unit features two grounding plates on the unit (allowing use with either left or right hands) as well as a hand probe with grounding pole and attached wire. Two probe tips are included with unit: ear 2 mm (0.08") and body 4 mm (0.16"). Other standard accessories include 9 volt battery, carrying case, and instructions.

Frequently Asked Question:
What is the Milli-Amp and Micro-Amp used for?
It depends on what school of thought you come from and the preference of the practitioner. Micro-Amp is a very small wave that can treat and stimulate without being felt by the patient. Milli-Amp is similar to TENS units, in which the patient can feel the treatment.
NOTE:
Federal Law restricts the sale of TENS, EMS and Micro-Current devices to or on the order of a licensed physician.
