I wish they would release the placement they used for the testing. I would be interested in trying this out at home with my tDCS device. My guess is they are using one of the following placements: Accelerated Learning (DARPA) F10/Left Arm - http://tdcsplacements.com/placements/accelerated-learning/ http://tdcsplacements.com/placements/accelerated-learning/ "Savant Learning" (Chi & Snider (2011)) T4/T3 - https://www.reddit.com/r/tDCS/comments/2e7idx/simple_montage_list_with_electrode_placement_and/ https://www.reddit.com/r/tDCS/comments/2e7idx/simple_montage...

Where did you purchase your device? Or did you build it?

  I purchased it. I am hesitant to recommend a particular device because I am not a medical professional and there are inherent risks involved in using any of the devices. I would encourage you to check out www.reddit.com/r/tdcs and do some research yourself. In their FAQ they list several devices that you can start looking at. Sorry, I know that isn't a satisfying answer but it's the only one I am comfortable with.

Placement isn't that interesting: F3->bicep (pg2).

  Thank you for the links Gwern! You're right, the placement is the same as previous studies. Though from what I remember those were testing for the alleviation of depression, so it's nice to see there are other positive effects with that placement.
