Congratulations! You have just acquired NeuroFit.

The most advanced direct-to-consumer tDCS device on
the market today. Our latest v2.0 tDCS includes several
advancements that users have been asking for,
including; automatic “ramp-up AND “ramp-down”
capabilities at all times during a session (for comfort-
able use), backlight flicker switch (for nighttime
readability), end-of session beep indicator, and
upgraded electronics circuitry. These new features
vastly improve your tDCS device’s performance, as
well as your comfort level and usability.

NeuroFit is based on tDCS technology, and enhances it
with a sleek, new compact design, modernized
user-interface, on-board safety features & flexible user
options.
Unlike other rudimentary devices still being sold online,
NeuroFit has a 20/30 minute count-down timer - a very
important satfety feature that ensures you receive a
session that automatically ends & shuts down the device
in case you lose track of time or fall asleep
during use (this is a common occurrence!).

Another modern safety feature includes a sensor that

will automatically pause the device if the electrodes are
not being worn, or if they are applied incorrectly.

NeuroFit encompasses the latest technology and design,

while remaining true to the tDCS vision, which includes
numerous studies representing thousands of hours of
testing.

It is important to know that montages, where the

electrodes are placed, are the basis for the specific
benefit claims of tDCS.
