The devices and systems designed to detect, amplify, or harness psionic energy, ranging from simple "orgone accumulators" (boxes full of metal shavings and resin) to complex "psionic amplifiers" that look like rejected props from a 1990s sci-fi show. These technologies promise to boost your mental powers, but their effectiveness is difficult to measure, as they tend to work best for people who already believe in them. The most advanced psionic technology remains the placebo effect, which is free, reliable, and requires no batteries.
Psionic Technologies Example: "He built a psionic technology device from plans found online—a copper pyramid with crystals at the corners, connected by wires to a headband. When he wore it, he felt a tingling sensation, which was either psionic energy or the headband being too tight. He chose to believe it was energy."
