    Hi everyone. Please can anyone here tell me what equipment is this?

    I wanted buying some days ago, but because it was made in Japan, and everything written on it was Japanese, I did not buy it.

    Is this some kind of medical apparatus, or something to do with automobile?

    Thanks

    Doesn't look like anything too high-tech maybe some kind of low voltage battery tester doesn't look like anything that works on 260 volts it's certainly not a tech stream device pretty funny

    SM-A715F ?

    I know it is not techstream. This stuff also seems to use AC voltage. That thing like a small ball or so by the right hand side is what? Do you understand Japanese?

    sorry dont read japanese.

    But does the ball thingy look like it may fit into cigarette lighter?
    Maybe to test voltage with that needle meter?

    looks like there is a "output" on bottom left with the 1/4 inch jack....looks like one of the cords in the box,
    but separate then the one attached to the ball thingy

    Didn't understand 100% of it, seems like a Shiatsu device.. acupressure...
    a form of massage therapy in which static pressure is applied to specific areas of the body

    If the image was clearer, one could run the labels through google translate that might help
