In 1892, Nicola Tesla, the man we owe (among other things) the development of AC household electricity to, traveled through Europe, lecturing. He met with Paul Marie Oudin and Jacques-Arsène d’Arsonval in Paris where they discussed ways of building electro-therapeutic devices.

Originally used as a holistic practitioner's curative violet ray set, complete with tesla coil, these classic sets produce more ozone and bite that can be hoped to be achieved by any modern / solid state device. MIRAGE Have you been afraid to try a Violet Wand? Don’t be! An introductory set at a special price.The device is also a rather loud. Again, this can’t be helped, it’s just a matter of having a big electronic thing. Thankfully I’m in a situation where I don’t have to worry about discretion, but if you do, keep that in mind. This kit will operate all Violet Wand Accessories that we carry and works with any other 7/16″ American Standard size Electrodes and Accessories. You can get some fair intensity at the upper range, and this type of wand is more than for many people, exciting nerves and sending sparks. If you have to turn down a heavy-duty Tesla wand a bit so that you can play with a Violet Wand, then this is ideal for you. Not everyone needs the top ‘painful’ ranges and are looking for the excitement and intensity instead.

Nobody builds Violet Wands. What a few (not too many as it turns out) manufacturers do build are devices for other purposes, which. when used for electrical play in the SM scene, are called “Violet Wands”. There are several devices available from one manufacturer, which are similar to Violet Wands as we know them, but have quite different characteristics and looks. Beware of cheap imitations that do not have the power to be effective for therapy. Concluding Remarks from the Readings The Mirage Pro Violet Wand™ has a 48kv max output, more than most beginner Violet Wands. This is at the upper edge to do all Violet Wand techniques and use all Violet Wand tools. So, you can still experiment with all kinds of other Violet Wand techniques and tools, and the wand will grow with you. If you want erotic lush fizzing that feels like champagne bubbles, this will be perfect. If you want to try some intensity as well, the Mirage will do that too.This really is a very high quality violet wand machine, output regulated by way of a potentiometer. We recommend potentiometer controlled violet wand devices like this machine, as they provide smooth even output transmission, which is vastly superior to most lesser devices, making for a much better end-user experience. On the other hand most can only run for a very limited time before they need to cool down. This can often be mitigated by limiting their output potential. If you decide to buy one of these devices, make sure you discuss run time versus maximum output and your other needs and wants with the restorer before deciding which unit to buy. This classic violet wand machine has been lovingly restored in the UK to it's original performance for you by Bound2tease. Produced in France in the mid 1930's, this Irradius is a compact device, superbly designed for transportation. Includes 8 treatment electrodes. The high frequency electrotherapy treatment electrodes are all seated on the new crimson cotton velvet lining. The electrodes are all guaranteed as fully functional (please note: the metal bar in some photographs is for illustration purposes only).

A number of other precautionary measures are mentioned throughout the readings, such as not using the violet ray on the same day that one is taking Atomidine or “during the times [when] the [spinal] adjustments are being taken!” (1584-1) One individual asked if “the yoga practice of Kriya [is] causing any ill effects”; she was told that “this is very well…for these exercises have a stimulating effect. However, do not use these during the period the Violet Ray is used, for that week!” (813-2) Though not mentioned in the readings because of modern medical procedures, persons with pacemakers should not operate the device or receive a treatment, and those with lens implants are advised not to use the eye applicator on their eyelids. fulgurator electrode(metal-tipped this one burns - is used to cauterize warts or verrucas - also used in fireplaySome individuals were told not to use the violet ray until they had established a better cleansing and elimination process in their systems. One woman was told “not [to] use the violet ray through the hot weather.” (3450-2) another reading explained: “When the body gets the sunshine it is not necessary for so much of the violet ray.” (325-58) also, “…if the X-ray flashes are used we would not use the violet ray…leave off the machine while the X-ray treatments are being given!” (325-64) Suitable for novices and the more experienced alike, this professional violet wand set’s control unit can be removed from the case and placed on a suitable surface during treatment.

Electrotechnic Products aka ETP in Chicago started producing the Bleadon-Dun Violet Ray devices in 1942 for industrial use, first just as testers for the neon industry, later and up to today also as leak and pin-hole detectors, neon testers and for physics science classes. Most of their units are based on the antique medical units and, as far as their model BD-10A goes, with few changes till today. Probably with ETP’s knowledge, but no official approval, they are also being sold as healing devices. Electro-mechanical Violet Wands operate on electro-magnetic coils, heavy duty components which allow for their longer life span. The sparks feel ‘thuddy’. They have a great deal of personality and a bit of a learning curve to operate, however. For that reason, they are best for advanced users, or people who are serious about their scenes. On the other hand, Solid State / Electronic Violet Wands operate on a circuit board, which makes them easier to use and economical. The sparks feel ‘stingy’. They have consistent output and require no learning curve to operate. They are best for beginners through intermediate users. One of several electrical appliances recommended in the Edgar Cayce readings, the violet ray is a rather unique instrument; during Cayce’s day it was available for use by physicians and laypeople from pharmacies or electrical appliance stores. Today, because of its positive effect on the skin, cosmetologists, beauticians, and aestheticians use it for psoriasis, acne, and hair growth. Heat, created in the device’s generating part, may be only slightly discernible to the person receiving the treatment. As noted earlier, this increase of heat stimulates superficial circulation (lymphatic and capillary), resulting in toxins being carried away and the body’s organs being strengthened. Indications for Usethe hand piece, while it looks the same as the BD-10A minus the adjustment knob at the end, weighs just 13 ounces (370 grams) compared to the BD-10A’s weight of 1 lb 7 oz (650 g). Be careful though: There is an old version, which is called BD-10 and BD-10S respectively (without the “A” after the 10) and those units are very old). If a unit is sold with the original ETP electrode and you see in the picture that the electrode has a red connector between base and tip as in the following picture, it’s a very old unit.
