Tingled, Sizzled, Or Sued?
Given my technophilia it was a given that I would read Bacchus’s In Thrall to the Machines post from yesterday, and equally given that I would follow the link for the Hitachi Magic Wand whereupon, on a page dominated by a comely nude model prominently displaying Hitachi’s doubtless fine product, my eyes were drawn straight away to…
For North American use only, on 110-120 volts. Do not use with a voltage converter. Any use outside of North America voids warranty.
And immediately I started wondering “Oh yeah? What happens if I do use a voltage converter? Are the untoward consequences legal in nature? Technical? Sexual?” (Note: I am not recommending anyone actually try this.)
And why am I looking at this piece of text and not at the pretty girl? Hmm. Do I have perhaps…unorthodox obsessions?
Though the second thing that came to mind was perhaps a little more normal, at least for anyone who was an adolescent guy once.
As the robot famously said to human paramour “Earth women who experience sexual ecstasy with mechanical assistance always tend to feel guilty.”
Not anymore, apparently. Good.

while the first image eludes me, the second one I definitely know as I spent a great many years search for the original heavy metal, as it was tied up in litigations over royalties. It’s nice to see it is still being used, and I can think of no finer place for it to be, than here.
On that same line of thought, I cannot help but to remember the lovebot from AI talking about “once you have a lovebot, you’ll never need anything else” or something along those lines (too many quotes get jumbled sometimes)
Voltage converters convert the voltage to the 110-120 volts the Hitachi wants, but will not convert the frequency. American line voltage is 60Hz (meaning the AC waveform fluctuates 60 times per second), many foreign countries use 50Hz. That may make the motor in the Hitachi run slower, or overheat.
A quick google brings up Australian sites that sell the Hitachi Magic Wand along with a Step-Down converter to let it run on Southern current.
Warning, using a Hitachi Magic Wand may cause you and/or your partner’s bodies to rotate and flex in a clockwise rather than anti-clockwise direction, if your pleasure approaches cyclonic force. Position padding around your place o’ pleasure appropriately.
In addition, not all the “Foreign adapters” are voltage converter. Some are simply plug adapters that do nothing to the current. They will let the 220 go straight on through and cook your motor. Also, for planning purposes, I have run into a grounded plug, the equivalent of our three prong, which cannot be used with the plug adapters in most converter kits.
Unless they are going to be there long enough to justify the purchase of a Eurasian version of the Hitachi, it seems to me that the ladies would be better off just packing a battery operated type – atteries are pretty much available anywhere and the battery operated types would be more easier to pack (pesky weight restrictions on airline luggage.)
The wand is even on sale…oh yeah the girl is cute too.
The first image is that of Rotwang, the mad scientist from the famous silent SF film Metropolis. He is the creator of the Robot Maria, the sexiest automaton in film history.
thank you petronius. one of the few sci-fi movies I still have on my “to-do” list
I can agree with the comment that they get hot on Australian power; several sites here now sell an adjusted ‘medisil’ model that still gets hot.
Is it just me, or does that guy in the black and white photo look like William Devane?
