In order to even start getting bonus dice with must devices you're going to need 5 successes (which gets you 1 die.) start subtracting dice for sustaining a spell (force 5 or 6 sustaining foci are pretty pricey,) and you start having a pretty useless spell quickly. I lnow you could have the spirit sustain it (or even cast it for you) but on it's own it seems like a fairly useless spell unless you can use it on low/no tech devices (clubs swords etc.)
