@n3tcat this is awesome, I had wanted to do something like this myself but when I last looked into it there weren't any resources available for how one would make a DIY electrolysis machine unless you already know some electrical engineering. might try to replicate your build

@b @BabyFn0rd I unfortunately cannot sell, both because I'm scared of selling medical devices and because I'm a work visa that I would be in violation in by making money outside of my job. But it's all open source and reproducible!

@fiore the way electrolysis works freaks me out honestly, you stick the probe in the hole of each follicle
