This question is especially for @Bob. I like to build a “coil-belt”, 4 pieces of 2x2 coils in a row.
My question: Is there something special to look out for?
Like always the same side up (little molds) - or does it not play a role? Or always the cables facing the same direction - or does this not matter, too.
Best,
Hans
I don’t think there is anything special to be concerned about from a technical perspective. But please do give it a try and tell us the results/observations.
Thanks @Bob! I have taped them together, but one coil is the other side up then the rest. So if it does not matter - like the nearby magnet fields disturbing each other - then I can leave it.
My better part will use it on the spine and attached over both shoulders. Will report here if something good comes up.
Best,
Hans
Yes, that should not be a problem technically. I am very interested to hear the result!
Hi @Bob
here is my setup. Feels fine and covers the area that hurts plus the are that may be the reason for the pain. I wear it as a belt with the provided strap.
Another question: Could a 4-times deep-field coil work the way I have positioned the individual deep-field coils? I then would build or tape 4 pairs of long coils together.
Best,
Hans
@hcf This looks great! Yes, you could do the same arrangement with the 4x deep field coils I think without technical concern…
The main thing to know is how well it works for you when you use it.
Thanks for your answer.
I will assembly a Quadruple-Deep-Field-Coil (QDFC) and test it. My better part has some spontaneous forming pain areas on her back which need a 2x2 coil, because it is hard to pinpoint them and then attach the coils exactly on that spot.
I hope to get even better results with the 2x2-deep-field and will report here if it seems that way.
And I really like the idea, that I can assemble the coils in a way that suits our (current) problems.
Hans, how are these various coil configurations working for you?
I liked my quad-deepfield coil on the B5. Had the feeling that it worked better at intensity 8/9 then the regular 2*2.
Did not use my 2 * 8 very much, because its a quite complicated setup with the neopren belt and while working outside.
My wife will soon try the 28 or 44 at night - we have to see what covers the problematic areas better while moving in the night.
Thanks Hans! I like the idea of the “quad-deepfield coil” setup. I will either build my own, or purchase a couple from @Bob and tape them together.
