Curiosidades
Dr. Granville's electromechanical vibrator was portable but had a wet cell battery that weighed about 40 pounds.

Pifias
The film suggests that the Granville Electric was the first mechanical vibrator. While it pioneered the use of electricity in the vibrator, hand-cranked models existed before the Granville.

Very interesting

This is a very interesting portrayal of a little known but highly interesting medical history. It keeps a serious tone, but it still makes you laugh by the strange medical concepts that prevailed at that time.
