Re: The dangers of zappers with some parasites
[EDIT: Sorry, I meant to post this further up! Like at the top.]
In a conversation about the effectiveness of zappers, I think it's only fair that you (and everyone who contributes) shares some information:
1. What zapper(s) are you using, and at what frequencies?
2. How long do you use each zapper at a time? For instance, do you do the 7/20 thing? Do you zap through your feet at night? Do you take breaks? Do you zap constantly for an entire month? (I've heard this is rather effective, from one source.)
3. What kind of conductors do you use, and how large are they?
4. What are or were you zapping for (if you know exactly)?
5. Where have you placed the conductors during zapping?
6. What health conditions do you have, if any (that you aren't specifically zapping for)?
7. What is the true voltage of your 9v batteries, if you're using 9v batteries. For example, some of them are 7.2v, some are 8.4v and some are 9.6 (probably others, too). I hear rechargeables are often (not always) lower. I don't know how much this matters, but someone told me it matters significantly. If you don't have the true voltage, maybe someone can figure it out. What kind of batteries are they (e.g. Duracell alkaline, Tenergy nickel cadmium 250mAh, etc.)
8. What other things are you doing to help you with your issues? (i.e. herbs, diatomaceous earth, etc.)
However, that's a lot, and I would be thoroughly impressed if anyone actually answered all those questions (and wouldn't blame you if you didn't have time). I know that some of this is answered below, but a uniform place for it would be nice (so we don't have to read the entire thread to figure it out).
