      I need EEG machine! Help

      I want to buy EEG machine to track my sleep stages and my brain activity. Something simple capable of measuring deep sleep duration for example. I've looked on ebay, but I have no experience yet, so anyone has please?

      Maybe this is a good place to start looking / asking around for a setup:

      Zeo is out of business so the device can't be used properly as I understand from reading an Amazon review.

      Are there any other devices on the market?

      Yes, eeg-smt works well. Zeo headbands can still be bought on eBay and the app is still available on the play store for android. Mine still works and I did manage to buy a new headband for it some ago.
      Or, build your own from the openeeg info.
      But, working out when you are in REM is not quite as easy add it sounds with a simple eeg machine.

      EEG - electroencephalograph... records electrical activity along the scalp.
