has anyone had any experience of these little electronic gadgets that
are suppposed to stop bites and stings hurting.

Yes, I've got one. If you click it five or six times (as per instructions),
it works for me.

They are obviously a little piezo-electric device that give you a
small shock to the skin.

If you put it anywhere too sensitive (e.g. inside of wrist) it gives you a
big shock :-O The instructions with mine say not to do this, so I got the
boss to try it :-)

Yes, fantastic fun...particularly if you are the one giving the shock. I
think they may have some use(confusing the brain pain signals) for stopping
the itching but I cant say they helped a lot with the bad bites and where it
was hot and people itched worse.
