Obi TENS
This tens unit is a single channel device. This means that all four electrode pads are controlled together. When you increase the intensity on the unit all four pads will increase or decrease in intensity.
Boost mode -When experiencing a contraction, simply press the ‘boost’ button located in the middle of the unit. The Obi TENS will then switch automatically into the BOOST mode for that extra surge of power required to combat the pain during contractions. This will feel like a continuous sensation.

The Elle TENS
This unit is a dual channel unit. This means that the upper and lower electrode pads are independently controlled by two channels. For example: You may prefer more intensity on the bottom set of pads and less intensity on the top pads. The Elle TENS unit allows each channel to be controlled independently.
Boost mode – There are two mode ranges available on the Elle TENS, each with a Burst and Boost function. Mode 1 (BURST 1 and BOOST 1), which is primarily used for the earlier stages of labor. Mode 2 (BURST 2 and BOOST 2) usually used when your labor advances and your contractions become more frequent.
Optimax – gives an extra pulse of pain combatting power in the stronger stages of labor when you need it most. Optimax also features in both the Elle TENS 2 and the Elle TENS+
