Lightweight wearable neurostimulators for applying transdermal electrical stimulation and methods of using them to derive cognitive effects are disclosed. These devices are lightweight, wearable, worn on the subject's temple and configured to fit securely and comfortably to various head sizes with the electrode assembly. These neurostimulator devices may include hardware, software, and / or firmware components configured to safely and effectively apply a high current intensity (e.g., using a high voltage source). These devices may also be used to deliver complex (e.g., ensemble) waveforms that may include capacitive discharge components to uniquely identify which electrodes are coupled to the neurostimulator (in any case) and to increase user comfort Lt; / RTI > |
