Blah. But the basic point was OMFG we had so much fun! We stayed up till 4am playing! I loved being grounded and having my body be electrified so when I touched her sparks flew off my fingertips!Shoshanna Evershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10172269305910566840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429156142967093682.post-58117810165761494502012-11-19T12:06:58.573-08:002012-11-19T12:06:58.573-08:00I think hers didn't work when she turned it on...I think hers didn't work when she turned it one specific way but I could be wrong. Thanks for the correction.<br /><br />We did do the electrifying someone thing, though you might be talking about something different. I'm guessing it had to do with trying to be as careful as possible...Cassandra Carrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11261191490396335404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429156142967093682.post-16554764244288989402012-11-19T11:22:07.700-08:002012-11-19T11:22:07.700-08:00We love our violet wand.

His died a few months back, and He needs to get it fixed.<br /><br />I'm surprised she made you take off underwire bras, etc. That's not an issue unless you're using the body contact probe on someone to electrify them. Which makes it fun playing with things like Mylar floggers. :) I also have the Edison adapter so we can use lightbulbs in ours, in addition to the standard electrodes.<br /><br />I also beg to differ with the info you quoted. The violet wands we've got (ours, and the Sir's, well, before it died LOL) will work regardless of how they're held.<br /><br />What they basically are used for in "vanilla" life are neon tube testers. (Which is why the electrodes look like miniature neon tubes and light up with different color gasses. *smile*)<br /><br />The old devices were used as patent medical devices back as early as the early 1900's (possibly earlier, but I'm not sure). My dad has one from the late 1920's that's still in the box and has the information. It was marketed as a "hair restoration treatment."<br /><br />Um, suuuure. LOL<br /><br />And ironically, it looks almost like the modern ones.<br /><br />http://www.drclockwork.com/Tymber Daltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11580702194703813388noreply@blogger.com
