As I understood it, the mechanomancer taboo has more to do with the type of materials used in the clockwork than the time since a given device was invented, ie mechanical/clockwork good, electronics bad.  Incidentally, according to UA2, a charge-worthy photocopier could be built into a clockwork, as long as it doesn't actually photocopy.

The Mechanomancers must be squealing with joy:

1901: The vacuum cleaner
1903: The airplane (Orville & company)
1905: The hydrofoil
1907: The helicopter

Going to be a few years until the biggies hit -- 1923 for the TV, 1930 for 
the jet engine. 1938 for the photocopier . . . don't even want to think 
about what a Mechanomancer could do with a major charge off of the first 
photocopier . . .
