No, dear. Spooky2 cannot be used as an ultrasonic machine.
There are two problems.
1. The generator doesn't have enough power to drive an ultrasonic wand directly.
2. The generator doesn't have enough power to drive a heating element directly.
This type of use would require an amplifier -- much like how the Central acts as an amplifier to drive the plasma bulb.
Yes, the central has an ultrasonic output, but it is not a direct frequency output port.
It will run the ultrasonic as a harmonic of the plasma input frequency, which limits its use for independent use. As a compliment to plasma, a harmonic works.
In the fast mode, the harmonic is 1/16th the input frequency. In the slow mode, the harmonic is 1/256th the input frequency.
So while the ultrasonic wand goes up to 1 MHz, it is essentially limited to the following ranges:
Fast: 6,250 Hz - 187,500 Hz
Slow: 390.625 Hz - 11,718.75 Hz
As you can see, only about 20% of the wand's output frequency range is utilized.
