Let's start with tDCS

After all, FOC.US are acknowledged as the company that started the consumer tDCS market. Foc.us did tDCS first.

tDCS mode in V3

The secret to safe tDCS is maintaining a constant current throughout each stimulation session. The minimum requirements of a tDCS stimulator are simply:

  • Accurate Actual Current Display

If you cannot check the actual current during a stimulation session then you are not getting tDCS.

The foc.us V3 shows you a live graph of the actual current delivered during each stimulation session.

Why is a current display important?

Target current is not the same as actual current. Ohms Law dictates that the actual current is equal to the voltage divided by the resistance.

The resistance comes from the cable, electrodes, sponges and impotantly your head!

What is the resistance of my head?

The resistance of your head includes hair, skin, bone, blood and brain (great name for a rock band). The most important thing to know is that the resistance is constantly changing.

Back to Ohms Law, to get a steady current with a changing resistance requires a dynamic voltage.

The Proof is in the Display

Designing a tDCS stimulator to accurately control the output current is difficult because of these changes in resistance. If the voltage is not set according to the measured resistance you will receive current spikes.

So a realtime current display is essential for assurance, safety and honesty.

Really Accurate Current

The foc.us V3 is the most accurate tDCS stimulator available. From any manufactuer. Bar none. 

Why?

  • 50,000 Reasons

The V3 measures the resistance in your head 50,000 times per second  and alters the voltage 50,000 times to ensure the target current is met. 

Result: accurate, stable, tDCS current.

The actual current is displayed on the screen and logged to file. You know you are getting tDCS with foc.us

10 reviews for focus V3

  1. David –

    Feels good

    This is an early review after a few days use.
    Device feels solid and is easy to control. Very similar to V2 but with rippled contours.
    Screen is a little distorted in the center line and unreadable in bright sunshine.
    The electrodes, cable and headband appear to be the same as in other foc.us kits.
    No instructions included but maybe that was just mine?

    Not sure if 3rd Eye program works but it’s why I purchased it so will keep trying.

  2. Debbie –

    Lot of features

    The V3 is really quite good. It has got a lot of functionality for the price. So much so that I haven’t tried all the modes yet.

  3. W –

    highly recommended

    Really pleased with the V3. I’ve been using v2 for a few years but the battery life was showing its age. v3 works the same as the v2 for me.

  4. jasonm –

    Good enough

    Just got this after a very long wait! Focus asking for a review. Well, its a good enough product. Not the easiest thing to get started with but a heck a lot of features. I have been using the go flow to manage my moods with some success, but wanted to try alternating current modes. So far, I’m happy. tACS feels really different! Can’t say yet if its better.

  5. Geary –

    early impressions are good

    Possibly too soon to ask for a review as only received the V3 earlier this month, however first impressions are good.
    Device feels solid and easy enough to use. Lack of instructions could be an issue for some people.
    Maybe better to review in a month after more use.

  6. Green –

    Like v2

    If you’ve used a v2 you will find the v3 very familiar. The menus are the same and the device is the same physical size, give or take. The electrodes and cable also appear to be the same. So basically v3 is a lot like v2 as far as I can tell.
    The main difference appears to be the change from a charging dock to a charging usb cable, and the new modes. The price is about the same, since all the accessories are now included.

  7. George –

    tdcs calming

    I find tDCS makes me feel extremely calm. Not relaxed calm, but tranquil calm.

  8. happy –

    love it

    I love it!

  9. Marcelo –

    Preferred v2

    Balancing the warped screen view against the extra features I think I prefer the v2 model.

  10. Yu –

    Possibly great

    This may be a great device but it’s quite hard to know with so little guidance.
    If I want to try the other modes like tACS and tRNS where can I find instructions and placements?
    I hope you are going to give more information.
