If they can stick a battery in there so the plectrum wiggles itself up and down for me, then I'm sold.

The concept reminds me of this weird old thing found in a vintage tenor banjo case. It's some kind of early plastic (I think), maybe bakelite or similar, with a thick leather handle part that flexes slightly. It's interestingly loud and plunky on banjo or archtop guitar, and almost useless on anything else.
