We found another ECT unit. A much smaller piece of kit, this was the handy,
portable, battery driven "Transindolor B225", with attachments for two sets of electrodes.
Click on the image for the full sized picture and check out the logo. These days,
the image of a person being electrocuted by the potential difference between the ‘S’ and ‘C’,
would simply not be allowed. Even if the apparatus in question was for... erm... effectively
electrocuting people.
I wish I’d kept this - it’s just so amazingly nasty.
However, all is not what it seems.
"...However I have come to notice that you are mistaken in thinking
that the two electric machines (Progressive Treatment Unit and Transidolar B225) were not as uou assumed ECT machines.
They are infact muscle stimulators intended to build up strength in wasted muscles of invalid
or non ambulatory patients (not unlike the Slendertone or Ab Exercise Machines available today).
Obviously much larger in size due to them not having the benefit of the minuture components and
intergrated circuits we take for granted these days."

"I have been looking into ECT machines and I can assure you that the machines
you mention on your site are ECT machines and not muscle stimulant machines." Gary
However, a Transindolor is described as a muscle stimulate machine here.
