No one's saying you're trying to mislead. It's just that as far as I understand it, we can't conclude anything about the effectiveness of tACS until it's isolated from confounding factors. |

Thanks for kind words, SearcherTMR, it was never my intention to motivate or mislead people into building tACs devices or start a career as a tACs salesman. 40Hz symmetrical square wave is a good approximation to the sine wave, instead of the asymmetrical pulse wave, in fact I think some kind of 40Hz excitation to the pre frontal cortex during REM should work. |

I started to use galantamine with some WILD/DEIL/Raduga's techniques. |
|
The problems with galantamine (or at least Galantamind) is that many people (me included) have trouble getting back to sleep on it. If you can get back to sleep, the dreams G+Choline give are mind-blowing. But that's a big "if" at least for me. Anything that give a similar result without the downsides (having to wait 3-4 days between attempts, also) would be very welcome. |

I also experiment this difficulty to fall back to sleep, but I suspect the norepinephrin produced by anticipation/ self pressure being half of the insomnia origin . |

As FryingMan said, no one accused you - inspiring someone is not a bad thing at all. It would be better though, if you had mentioned galantamine in your first posts - so your success would not be attributed to tACS alone. |

I almost never try to WILD on galantamine. I wake up (sometimes with alarm since I tried to take it earlier and earlier in the hope that I'd be more tired), pop the capsules, and immediately aim directly for sleep, hoping for a DILD, and many times it's worked out well. But many times it hasn't. |

Yes, you have summarized it very well except about never had lucid again. Now when I am in REM dream I am somehow able to recognize its a dream and turn it into a lucid one. Not all the time but with intention and will...it is all about using the tACs power of association during REM and awaken the ability to recognize when you are in REM |

The guys from Luciding are handing them out now. One customer (someone from the german lucid dreaming forum) tested it last night and he had a lucid dream. He said that he felt a noticeable pre-lucid state which made it easy to go to the lucid state with a RC. Yes, that all could be placebo, but it sounds really cool. Lets see what time will tell us. |

Anecdotal reports really don't mean anything without a full disclosure, and even then, it's the long-term results that are important. |

Do you have any pointers to the LucidSage device? |

Ugh, podcasts...1 hour of time spent to gather maybe 2 minutes of useful information, and you have no idea where it is buried. Thanks for the info. |

Hi Guys, |
|
I'm back! Again? Uhhh..
Maybe they decided that guaranteeing lucid dreams every night was a bad business model, generating thousands of irate customers paying but not receiving the dreams. In any case, I'm very happy to see the "service plan" model gone. |

I envision a pop-up notification window appearing in the dream as things fade away: |

Hi, |
|
I had a high school chemistry teacher who liked to blow things up in class. He was pretty strange. He told his class weird things that he did, but I just now realized that one of them is apropos my LD hobby. He said that he slept with his head in between electromagnets in order to affect his dreams. |
