   I was hoping to hear some good news and probably a profitable
common project proposal...
BTW, Snail Instruments it's your ( personaly ) firm ?

        These medical apparatus have to supply on pacient (with to or
four electrodes ) more than 100 different tipes of currents (I do not
know if the terms are corectly translated ) , some of these curents
keep the name of inventors: Klotz, Faradic, Huffschmitd, some name
are usual like: galvanic (DC), diadinamic, interferential, tens,
russian, rectangle, triangle, trapezoidal, all can be modulated with
other tipes and must supply a patient resistance between 0.2K to 7K
and a current up to 100mA.  You may see the picture of them (and
my pH-meters too at:

I'm serious thinking to an industrial pH-meter with an electrode-unit
(adapted only for metalic electrodes) and a display-unit conected
with a RS485 (or other current mode transmition) with electrode unit,
I've think that romanian market needs something like that...
