Appreciation post: got my first clean P300 signal after moving my setup

I mean, I was getting so much noise from my old apartment's wiring, idk, it was a mess. I moved the whole rig to my friend's place in Boulder last weekend, just a quiet spot in his basement, and ran the OpenBCI Ganglion board again. The signal cleared up like magic, maybe 60% less baseline drift. Has anyone else had to pick a whole new room just to get a clean read?

Oh man, the lengths we go to for clean data. I had to run an extension cord from my neighbor's garage once because my fridge was on the same circuit. Felt like I was stealing electricity just to get a decent EEG.

That would have changed my mind about extension cords.

So you had to move your whole brain to a new house? Guess @brooke71 was right about the cords. My place has the same wiring noise, drives me nuts.
