Anyone informed enough want to comment on the "tDCS decreases IQ" study? I was seriously considering seriously considering this, but this makes me think it's still all too novel and risky to use effectively.

I've got my custom build device for sale for about £65. If anyone's interested I can post some pictures, it is 18V (2x 9V batteries) and it has blue light multimeter build in and can be adjusted between 0.8 - 5mA.
