well, Since the advent of power electronics, it has become difficult to draw a boundary between electrical and electronic devices. An approximate boundary can be drawn on the basis of the power level — 20 watts can be set for this purpose.
Those devices operating at less than 20 watts can be said to be electronic and devices above 20 watts are electrical devices.
A further classification of such devices is on the basis of operating voltage i.e devices with low operating voltages are electronic and those with high operating voltages are electrical.
a device that accomplishes its purpose electronically
answering machine - an electronic device that answers the telephone and records messages
beeper, pager - an electronic device that generates a series of beeps when the person carrying it is being paged
defibrillator - an electronic device that administers an electric shock of preset voltage to the heart through the chest wall in an attempt to restore the normal rhythm of the heart during ventricular fibrillation
device - an instrumentality invented for a particular purpose; "the device is small enough to wear on your wrist"; "a device intended to conserve water"
video display, display - an electronic device that represents information in visual form
display adapter, display adaptor - (computer science) an electronic device that converts information in memory to video output to a display
dongle - (computer science) an electronic device that must be attached to a computer in order for it to use protected software
doubler - an electronic device that doubles the voltage or the frequency of an input signal
generator - an electronic device for producing a signal voltage
deaf-aid, hearing aid - an electronic device that amplifies sound and is worn to compensate for poor hearing
logic element - an electronic device that performs an elementary logic operation
computer mouse, mouse - a hand-operated electronic device that controls the coordinates of a cursor on your computer screen as you move it around on a pad; on the bottom of the device is a ball that rolls on the surface of the pad; "a mouse takes much more room than a trackball"
multiplexer - a device that can interleave two or more activities
artificial pacemaker, pacemaker - an implanted electronic device that takes over the function of the natural cardiac pacemaker
