Re: Advocates of HK Zapper, enjoy.
Actually the interesting part is here:

From this picture:

it is interesting the figure A, electron which is outside the cell with two-directional arrow, see? In zapper case it is one-directional, since the famous "Positive offset". In other words there is a kind of "shaking" of electric field in their study, and shocking periodic hits in zapper case. Differences could be explained like (50% duty cycle assumed for zapper, same frequency):
NovoCure:
half of the time of period electrons in field going in one direction;
half of the time of period electrons in field going in opposite direction;
in both periods current starts from 0V, going up to 2-10V/cm2 and back to 0V on sinus function.
Zapper:
half of the time of period electrons in field going in one direction;
half of the time of period there is no flow of electrons;
in first period the current increases at once from 0V to 9V and falls at the end of period to 0V, while in second half it remains 0V.
