Yeah, so I bought one of these. Just one more piece of evidence to archive in your "Dan, are you sure you're ok" file. It's an invention used in Hindu temples. Every temple must perform puja, or prayer, at various times during the day. But let's say you're running a small temple, nothing fancy, and you can't afford musicians on your payroll. Or nobody in your village has any rhythm. Or your musicians are always arriving late, complaining, and generally being flaky (Holler if you've ever tried to work with a drummer). Let me introduce what we call the autopuja, the pujamatic 9000, the dum dum drum machine, pujatron, etc.
Here's an article about these machines.

Dave and I spent all night taking TWO of these things apart and packing them in boxes so we could have our very own back home.
