I have hyperhidrosis of the hands and feet, meaning they sweat excessively and for no reason. I've lived with it for my whole life up until this week, when I discovered that if you run an electrical current through your hands and feet it just fixes it for some fucking reason.

I knew this was an available treatment, I didn't know anyone DIYed it! Probably won't myself because electricity is scary.

It's just a 12v battery! I'm scared of electricity too but honestly this has been incredible so far, and super cheap too. It isn't enough power to hurt you.

Be careful what kind of battery you use. I'm not sure if it's the battery's internal resistance that protects you or if it is somewhere else (the salt water or your skin, for example), but a 12V car battery could potentially be pretty dangerous if used this way.
