hello I have just removed my first body hair using this DIY hair electrolysis machine I built. The current is controlled by how hard you squeeze the pop can and the power source is a car battery. I intend to improve this but for a first attempt I cannot complain

@n3tcat do you use the can as an electrode in your hand? when I built a diy electrolysis device years and years ago I used a tens pad stuck to my jaw, from what I know the electrode has to be as close to the treated area as possible

@Critias yeah I was grabbing the can with my hand and removing the hair from the back of the same hand. Tbh I don't think the distance between the electrode and the needle should matter too much, so long as you have enough voltage to push the desired current. Of course, if your heart is part of the circuit, then you really need to trust your current limiting. An overcurrent event when the electrode and needle are close should be much safer
