    I see where the confussion arises... once I saw dundees link...
    Tori my thoughts - personally I wouldnt play with it... there are other proven methods that work... and the gadges to me are just like an e collar. If I dont know how to do it, I wont play arouns with it.
    Might do more damage than good...
