Reminds me of Wilhelm Reich, who believed in "orgone energy". He built these "orgone accumulators", which were boxy, small-phone-booth-looking, Faraday Cages. You'd sit in them for hours to accumulate your orgone energy and it would increase your libido. According to Wikipedia, "A professor at the University of Oregon who bought an accumulator told an FDA inspector that he knew the device was phoney, but found it helpful because his wife sat quietly in it for four hours every day."
