No. The only way to (indirect) use a wand of teleportation on yourself
is if you have read a scroll of punishment, and zap's the wand on the
heavy iron ball. This will cause the ball to teleport away, with you
following. (This is the only good use of a heavy iron ball that i have
found -- It's another way of getting out of a shop).

This is very interesting -- I knew you could throw the ball and be yanked
along, but this is the first I had heard of teleporting it away and
and following it.  However, I must differ on the utility of the heavy
iron ball.  Wield it as a weapon;  it makes a two handed sword look
like a willow wand!

 Another use of heavy iron balls would be to pick it up and throw it onto
the monster, it will usually kill the lower lever monster if it hits.

 Of course I do suggest that you wait until the monster is next to you
before you throw it........
