An interesting item - I mean the built-IN TA-counter. Never seen one before built IN.
But I prefer to buy an other Co$-item - a bottle of Dr. Hubbard´s "Psycho Juice" :
How does it taste ?

I don't know if you're serious about the TA counter or making a joke -- but not all Mark V's had a built in TA counter (the kind that was reset with a button). Some had a cruder kind that was driven by a small rubber belt that went around the tone arm and was reset by turning a little gear, much more low-tech.
That's how I remember it anyway. It's been over 30 years. :wink2:

The one above I remember, but the TA-counter was mounted on the outside of the front-panel.
The "sophisticated" built-IN-version I have never seen before.
Wow, I see it has already been sold now.

How much you get?

If the question was directed at me: Nothing, because I was not the seller (see first post). The asking price on evilbay was £79.99 (click on "here" in the first post)

I hooked up mine to my two tomato plants, one lead on each. I strung a string to the tone arm. Every morning I check it, and sure enough I get on average 2 1/2 TA divisions per hour.

I don´t know if the seller is a HE or SHE, and I don´t know how much (s)he finally got - but as I already wrote:
If it is very important to you and you have an evilbay-account my tip is that you could write the seller and ask him/her there for details.

I remember that, and feeling pleased that I had a British Mark V. Late 70s, wasn't it?
Now, whether the complaint was true or not is another question. Possibly it was a false rumour started by a competing manufacturer. I don't know either way.

At least some (british) Mark V were a safe risk because they didn´t use an isolation transformer or an external adapter for charging. They were directly connected to mains for charging.
So if you would connect and touch the cans while charging, you would get a real "excited feeling".

Probably that feeling came from re-stimulation of an event involving electronic theta traps... or it was your nerves reacting to the electricity which is what they use to communicate with the brain. One of the two. ;-)
Luckily mine has the 12v adapter.

funny.
But just on an aside, I wouldn't sell any scientology stuff on ebay or elsewhere to make a buck or recover my monies that I paid full price for.
I just don't want to spread false technology.
