A battery devised to generate both galvanic and faradic current from six dry cells housed within a wooden case with a damaged leather strap handle. Upon opening the case, the main panel consists of a large oscillator coil mounted on a top plate, with an adjustable induction core. Two switches adjust the galvanic and faradic current to the connectable devices. Under the lid of the box are the instructions for use.
In a suitcase-styled box, lined with velvet, is a violet ray stimulator. Inside the lid, with a ribbon identifying the device brand as "OFRA", are several types of glass electrodes ranging from facial use to genital use. In the base of the kit, along with additional electrodes, including a hairbrush-style electrode as well as a rubberized bulb to use with the nasal electrode. The current for the device can be adjusted by a turn dial, allowing the user to vary between 110 and 250 volts.
