Description
Quick answer: The Drive Medical AGF-5X is a portable, digital dual-channel TENS unit that delivers mild electrical pulses through electrode pads for drug-free pain relief. Its two independent channels let you treat two areas at once, with five therapy modes and adjustable pulse rate and width to customize your session. It comes complete as a kit — carrying case, 2 lead wires, 4 pre-gelled electrodes, a 9V battery, and a manual — ready to use out of the box.
What is a TENS unit and what does it do?
TENS stands for Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation. It’s a battery-operated pulse generator that sends gentle electrical impulses through electrodes on the skin to reach the nerves, helping to manage pain. It’s commonly used for relief from arthritis, muscle strain, and chronic pain. The AGF-5X uses dual isolated channels so each lead wire can be adjusted independently for proper treatment as instructed by a therapist or doctor, and the digital signals can deliver three waveforms — asymmetrical, bi-phase, and square pulse — with a modulation selector offering five modes (Normal, Burst, and three modulation modes).
Key features
- Dual isolated channels — treat two areas at once with independent control.

- Adjustable pulse rate and width — fine-tune intensity and feel.
- Digital LCD display — clear, easy-to-read settings.
- Portable with belt clip — lightweight for use at home or on the go.
