The iReliev TENS Unit Pain Relief System is the simplest way into dual-channel TENS for under $60. iReliev lists it at $59.95 on sale, down from $69.95, with free US shipping on orders over $29.95. It offers 8 preset programs, including acute pain, chronic pain and an arthritis program, and 25 intensity levels, more steps than the Omron units or the TENS 7000. Output strength is listed at 80 mA. The backlit 1.43 inch screen makes it easier to read in a dark bedroom, and the kit includes 3 AAA batteries, two lead wires, four 2 by 2 inch pads, a belt clip holster and a tote bag. iReliev lists a 1-year warranty and 30-day returns. What you give up for the price is a rechargeable battery and EMS muscle programs, and peak output sits below the TENS 7000. For someone who wants to try TENS for back or joint pain without a large outlay, it is a sensible first unit.
