I do not know if they will work but they look like the same type of connectors?

Im going to pull the trigger on this woot!
If anyone knows if the pads i found will work let me/us know so when i need new ones well have a cheap place to buy, looks like they had some oval and circular ones as well.

WOW THESE GUY TRIPLED THERE SHIPPING CHARGE AND ARE OUT OF THE 2x2 PADS. GUESS I SHOULD HAVE ORDERED BEFORE THEY GOT GREEDY!

OR they should send me a free set for all there free publicity!

SECOND THOUGHT BOYCOTT THEM THERE TAKING ADVANTAGE

I agree. It didn't take much on my shoulders for me to feel it, but I need a higher setting on my waist.

It has a timer. Once the timer ends, you have to turn the knobs off and then turn them back on again. You will also have to select location and massage/beat/knead again.

Had a PT session today and showed it to him (the massager that is). He looked it over, put it on my hip, and showed me what setting to use, and recommended that I use it twice a day. "$20 well spent" he said. I have to agree.

I am trying to get the answer myself.

Although I had reservations about electronic gadgetry and their real potential to solve anything, I have been using this thing and it's really helped my lower back.

I thought I would need to go to a Chiropractor for what felt like sciatic nerve pain and this solved it in just a few sessions.

A friend of mine recommended using this in combination with an ice pack and I'll give that a try next time around.

Will this be available in the future?

So far so good....my wife has been using it daily since it arrived at a setting around 2.5.

The 1st set of pads stopped sticking well after a week of use. (Note: She did not take any real precautions to clean her skin or immediately put them back on the plastic)

A quick wash of the pads with some soap and water made them sticky again....we'll see how long they last.

Researching a supply of pads of different of different sizes from a variety of links supplied here.

My wife loves it...I may have to buy another unit if it comes up for sale again in the next Wootoff!

To save you peeps some time....these are all the useful links posted in the discussion thread:

I still haven't received my massager. My FedEx info just shows initiated on March 28th but no other information. My card has been charged for this item. Any advice? I'm in Georgia.

I'm pretty pleased with it. It'll definitely make your muscles flex and get the kinks out. (or make them sore, if you're trying to work them)

People keep coming over to my house to use these... I may need another set or two. Hoping I catch them on sale again!

Just received my two units today!! SmartPost must have sent them on a sailboat across the Pacific...

Huh? You quoted my post but did you even take the time to actually read it before making a self-contradictory reply? Sure doesn't seem like it.

On a separate note, this device appears to be an excellent unit. I can't tell any intensity difference from what I've experienced from professional PT units for lower back treatments (which is all I can comment on). I like the varying pulse, knead, etc.. programming that the professional PT units (at least the ones I've experienced) didn't have. One constant non-varying setting can feel irritating IMO.
