Muscle Stimulators

Looking to get a good, easy to use muscle stimulator for less then $100.
Anyone have suggestions?

I have got different ones off this website... they are portable, you can get some that plug into walls, and some that just run on batteries, or both! I'd check out this website!

For those of you using the LG-7500" Electronic Muscle Stimulator and ordered the included battery charger...Is the charger and battery worth the $20 or should I buy better quality items from someplace else?
