Lo, Jon
V offers these for sale on ebay sometimes, get on his notify list when he has
one. it uses 4 9v's but you can remove 3 of them. but it only offers 1/30 herz
or 4 herz.
building using my ripped down beck board will be hard to do with just one 9
volt, as the electronics need 27 volts or so to operate, I think. but it is
modifiable for speeds easily, as Dick pointed out.
It's a small learning curve of a few days' tinkering, but is rewarding fun. I
once made one by just soldering the parts together using wires without any board
at all, just a chip socket and tiny potentiometer, with the rest of the parts.
but it's sort of silly, getting that small.
there are smaller 9 v computer batteries using the NiMH chemistry which would be
a way to miniaturize this down to a small board with the batteries taped onto
the back of the board, or some other packing scheme. you would unplug the
batteries and recharge them as needed, but they last almost forever.

Yes you can build a Beck to do almost anything you want, using various resistors and capacitors.
Years ago, when that's what we were doing on this group, I built one, with BG's directions with 6 different frequencies, and variable current up to about 10mA, or more. With which I promptly burned some holes in my wrist, trying to see how much I could stand. I could get my thumb to contract into the palm of my hand, if that's a benefit.
If you ask me how I built it, or the directions, I will have to send you to BG or V.

I've been using Beck devices and Godzillas in various forms with great success for the past fifteen years. I'm particularly impressed with the fact that on this website the Godzilla has become simpler and more effective.. This suggests to me that the mechanism by which it works is fairly well understood. In contrast, for example, to the various Rife-type devices which seem to grow ever more complicated, embrace more variables, without becoming more effective.
That said, for experimental purposes I want to build a small solid state Beck-type device that switches polarity -- like the original ones only smaller.
