... is quite uncomplicated and convenient to operate. Set-up takes just a few minutes, including a careful read of the users guide. Vector has the appearance and feel of a solid, well made piece of equipment - it's no toy. In fact the manufacturer advise it is intended for use by adults and should not be used by minors (read cautions). So, just follow the instructions implicitly and plug into a standard 110 volt outlet (power adaptor for other voltages) then :

1. set Vector to one of 7 intensity levels (there's a dial on front that turns clockwise);
2. coat the hair with of conductive gel (very important);
3. attach the ground wire to the patch electrode and stick this self-adhesive patch to your body (electricity requires this negative, or ground, point to flow);
4. grasp the gel coated hair with the tweezers applying power for a period of 6 to 30 seconds;
5. pull back on the tweezers and pluck out the hair.

To get a good sense of Vector: we used the highest intensity level - seven. Meaning two things, first it takes the shortest time (only 6 seconds) to treat the hair follicle and second, direct contact by the tweezers to skin will deliver the greatest sensation of electricity. Painless ? Yes, unless you touch skin with the tip of the tweezers which are live with electric current when either: (a) the power switch is on , or, (b)the foot pedal depressed. Juiced to level seven, there's a burning / pinching sensation that's somewhat unpleasant. Lower power levels are less noticeable, so go that route if your uncomfortable with possible stinging sensation. Respect that Vector is an electrified piece of equipment intended to destroy hair follicles in a convenient and painless manner but if you touch skin with the electrified tweezers you'll feel it. Again, sensation varies depending on the power setting you select. Vector is a substantial, AC powered electric device (read cautions),not a low powered battery operated one.

Ease of use: You'll require a mirror for treating hair in awkward places, otherwise it's a very easy task to coat, grasp and hold hair. TESCO Ent. provides only the very latest Vector model which has improved tweezers for grasping even fine hair.
Using the tweezers: Each hair must be grasped firmly at the base once it's been coated with conductive gel, then grasp and hold the hair for the required period of time to pass sufficient electric current through it. See chart below. Then, pluck the hair, which will slip out readily if treated properly (TESCO Ent. provides the upgraded Vector set with improved tweezers).

What you'll receive: Vector Electrolysis Deluxe Kit includes 56 self adhesive electrode patches and 3 tubes of conductive gel, enough to keep you going for a while. Should you require more patches and gel, initially, or later they can always be purchased here through the shopping cart. Most Pharmacies carry the electrode patches and conductive gel too.
* Customs broker fees: Vector shipments sent to customers in Canada and USA will not pay duty or customs broker fees. These fees are included in the product purchase price.

What to expect:The manufacturer, Divine Skin Solutions, state : This is a treatment process and it will take time. Vector will effectively reduce hair re-growth and permanent hair removal cannot be completed in a single treatment of the area. Electrolysis permanently destroys hair. However, even after you completely clear an area in one treatment you will see some re-growth. New growth that you see is not the same hair that you treated originally but fresh anagen hairs, which were resting at the time of the original treatment, not all hair is growing at once - hair grows in cycles. It usually takes 3 to 4 months for all hairs to go through a complete growth cycle and all hairs will need to be electrolyzed before they stop their cycle. After each treatment you will notice about a 20% reduction in hair growth in the treatment area. This reduction is permanent and will compound until there is no more hair growth in the treatment area.

Voltage: Vector is designed to accommodate 110-220V. However, up to 240v should still be ok if the voltage is very stable. The problem is that voltage in some countries is not stable, which may come to 250v or 260v, which can cause the machine to burn. Therefore we do not recommend the use of the Vector System in places with unstable voltages higher than 220V without a converter.
