Compilation Of EMFs Of Common Everyday Objects

[Cirion]

LOL yeah. I wonder if a pickup line such as "Hey baby, wanna see my Faraday cage?" would work on anyone except a physics major or another fellow health nut... hey, at least you could screen early... learn from my mistakes and make sure your girl is also a health nut or at the very least, very accommodating. My last girl I had basically led to a decline in my health because I ended up compromising my diet, environment, sleep hygiene for her etc. So honestly, if a girl can not accept a faraday cage, that's a good screening tool haha.

Haha that's a good one! I image searched that term and found some pretty cool and incospicuous "canopy beds".

I'm being a bit harsh, put it down to skipping lunch. It's frustrating to learn EMF is everywhere and that making minor changes might not be worth the hassle. I also felt that if we're quibbling about whether to stand 3 or 4 feet from the oven, we may have lost touch with the bigger picture. But more power to all of us.

This is not true. There are lots of small changes with big impact. For example, having your cellphone with WIFI and 4G close to your brain or balls for hours a day, versus just a couple of minutes every day.

EMF intensity is exponential with distance. So a small in increase in distance can a have big decrease in damage.

I feel like I have said it a lot of times, but taking selenium, zinc and magnesium can help a LOT with emf sensitivity. Small change, big impact.

I have almost finished the EMF book I got, very good, I highly recommend it whether you're on the fence about EMF's and don't believe they're a problem or if you're like me and already do believe they are a problem and just want to get more informed.

My parents and brother all seem to think I'm pretty crazy, but the book is so well written I believe strongly that if someone were to read the whole book they'd be convinced, but my brother already told me he won't read it. Whatever, you can lead a horse to water but can't make them drink as they say.

Anyway... Waiting on my improved scanner to come in the mail and I'll probably do some more measurements now including some electric field / RF/ dirty electricity measurements as well (only had magnetic field scanning capabilities previously).

I will say - I've permanently turned off my router wi-fi and I definitely feel calmer, more energy, less fatigue / brain fog. I highly recommend anyone else to at least try this and see if you don't see any health improvements also. I just use ethernet now. The author of the book also recommends switching from 4G to 3G (I disabled 4g on my phone). 3G has 84% less RF emissions than 4G.

I find it interesting that just about every country except ours (well mine at least, I know not all of us here are from USA) seems to care about our health.

Out of all countries, Israel seems to have the most restrictions on EMF. Just to give you an idea, our limits are like 9000 mG for magnetic whereas its 2 mG for Israel. (The book didn't list limits on electric fields or RF but prolly also way less).Israel in general seems to care a lot about their citizens too. I heard Israel came up with a cure for cancer a while back too. Of course, you won't hear about that on CNN or any other news network here in the west. Sometimes I want to move to Israel... one of the only things holding me back is the threat of constant war from all the neighboring countries lol. I'm very conservative and generally pro-capitalism but the fact that big cell phone companies etc couldn't care less about our health and only about $$$ from the upcoming 5G just disgusts me.

I can relate with your critque of corporate America, as a consumer and as someone who worked for a major corporation. For me, the most unconscionable aspect of corporate business is the “health” field. It’s not even close—it’s clearly high-profit big business and not a calling.

As for switching from 4g to 3g, I’ll have to look into how to do that for my phone. Thanks for the suggestion and info on that.

Oh yes the health industry is one of the biggest jokes. They are not good at treating much of any disease - including but not limited to diabetes, cancer, chronic fatigue, and many others. Funny, the author of the book had something to say about the health industry too - specifically the big irony is that many large hospitals drown you in wi-fi while also often containing several large cell towers on top of the hospital (the studies he discusses suggests you should be at least 300 meters away from a cell tower, if not 400-500 meters or even more. People with EHS (extreme sensitivity to EMF) could be affected by EMF / wi-fi that is more than 1500 ft away. He shows a cool looking 3-d plot that shows how occurrences of symptoms exponentially increase as you get closer to a cell tower (just a few meters away, nearly 100% of people complained of fatigue). It took 300+ meters for most occurrences of symptoms to go away. If a cell tower is on the frikkin roof, geez, that would easily be 50 meters or less away.

In my iphone, it's fairly easy to turn off 4G just go into the settings page and its pretty much right there, wasn't hard to find.

He brings up a lot of topics which suggest that EMF can be a major aggravator of SIBO/candida and other conditions because EMF may induce leaky gut. EMF can also apparently cause leaky BBB (blood brain barrier). I wonder if a lot of my gut issues were aggravated due to sitting so close to an active router a lot. An active router could easily drown you in 1000-10,000+ the recommended limit for RF radiation. Needless to say, upon reading that, that's what led to me quickly turning it off.

What do we do if they decide to roll out 5G in space? he talks about how animals are arguably even more affected than we are by RF radiation - at the very least, they're more aware / in tune with it. If we drown the whole planet in wi-fi, we may not only kill ourselves, but also the entire eco-system of the planet. Tell that to the next tree-hugger who is all worried about global warming. Whether global warming is a thing or not, I now believe 5G is the greatest threat to our planet... Sending those 5G satellites into space may just be the dumbest thing we will ever do as a species...

Israels internet providers also block pornography by default which you can not simply bypass by proxies and VPNs. You have to exclusively tell your IP to unblock it if you really want to go that road. They seem to really care about their inhabitants in contrast to every other overly liberal western country.

I have an iphone as well and have turned off 4G. For others intersted, it’s:
Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Options > Enable LTE: set to off. (I would imagine there may be slight differences for the various carriers. )

Thanks for the specifics on the cell towers. That is of the most concern for me, as I have one viewable from my back yard. Using Maps, I’ve determined it’s about 900 feet from me, max. So, not quite the 300 meter minimum. I’ll have to see about taking further steps to block the signal.

For the wi-fi, I’ll have to pick and choose times to turn it off. As I need it at least for my phone, which I have a limited data plan for and would not have enough to cover my usage.

That 5G satellite concern is eye-opening. Let’s hope we find a remedy for that.

Btw, I suspect vibrators and similar have a very high EMF output, and in a vulnerable place too.

Yes you're probably right. Not a female so I don't have one to test though. Actually this is a very important point, and I think it is useful not to avoid this topic of discussion for fear of being prude. After all, a female could be using something like this for even longer than we guys use a razor, and if it emits comparable levels as a razor, it could cause all sorts of problems - cancer, infertility, possibly even damage/destroy the supply of eggs (unlike men, women cannot recuperate their loss of eggs, once destroyed they are gone forever).

As nicolas pineaut so eloquently puts it - one of the easiest and cheapest contraceptives available is simply to put a laptop on your lap, or a cell phone in your pocket all day.

My EMI (dirty electricity) monitor came in today. My EMI readings put me at around 250-500 GS units in most of my house which is about 10x the recommended amount. I may consider investing in some EMI filters soon as such...

I’m curious, how do you think the more expensive meter compares to the cheaper one? Were there significant disparities?

 

[Cirion]

The EMI meter is separate from the new MF(magnetic field)/EF(electrical field)/RF(radio frequency) scanner I bought. I have not yet received my MF/EF/RF scanner, it arrives in the mail tomorrow, so I cannot comment on it. Plus, it's basically comparing apples and oranges anyway because all I had before was an MF scanner. I have had no means to compare the EF/RF readings to anything else, since I have not measured any EF/RF levels in my house as of yet. I would be able to compare the MF readings to the MF readings on my old device though. I expect the new scanner will be significantly more accurate in MF readings, in part due to the fact my new one will be 3-axis measurement rather than 1-axis.

I am hoping measuring EF/RF levels is going to be enlightening. I have a sneaking suspicion that even though I turned off my router (which was above my bedroom), that my PC and TV etc are still radiating me with EF's through the ceiling, but I won't know for sure until I can measure it. I swear I can feel a slight tingling in my brain at night that's why I suspect it. My CPAP may also be blasting me with EF's. I mitigated the MF's, but from what I've read EF's have a larger sphere of influence than MF's and are always associated with MF's (wherever there is an EF, there will be an MF essentially, according to physics). MF's typically fall off within just a couple of feet but EF's may (can't say for sure till I start measuring things) extend up to several dozen feet. RF's can extend hundreds, even thousands of feet in some cases, which is why cell towers and whatnot can be so deadly. Luckily, cell phone RF's and router RF's aren't quite as brutal, but they still have a pretty large sphere of influence, maybe up to 50-100 ft (again, won't know till I get my scanner).

Ok. I appreciate the thorough response. It will be interesting to see what you find.

Speaking of cell towers. I counted my steps to the one by my house and it’s 263z. So, that x the average male stride of 2.5 ft, puts me much closer that originally thought. As finances allow, I’ll get a meter(s), and see what I’m up against.

 

[Cirion]

2.5x263 = 657.5 ft. Nicolas pineault recommends at least 300 meters = about 900 ft away. I believe at 650 ft or about 200 meters the incidence of symptoms was still decently high (maybe 30%) I'd have to dig up the graph he made of incidence rate of symptoms. Not all towers are made equal though, so yeah, the only way to know what you're up against is to measure it. Some higher power ones might have influence up to 2000 ft, others you may be ok just 500 ft away, hard to say. Those numbers will change too with 5G. 5G I think has a large amount of radiation than 4G but from what I have heard the radius of influence is less which is why they will have to put up a ton of them up everywhere. It sounds good on paper that the radius of influence is less, but if the output is higher, that's bad, if they put those things up every block or two.

Unfortunately, the person who delivered my scanner yesterday didn't leave it at the door because I wasn't there to sign, so I have to wait until today to get it.

 

[Cirion]

Just received my new scanner.

Let's just say, wow, that is all. Here are a couple shocking facts so far already:

Cell phone emits 1,000+ times the recommended exposure for RF emission... when on 3G mode, which is 84% less than 4G. Remember this the next time you decide to put it in your pocket or against your head.

Microwave puts out 100-1000 times the recommended exposure for RF emission... ACROSS THE WHOLE HOUSE (30ft away). OMG lol. I'm convinced to ditch it now.

Even with my wi-fi off and cell phone off etc I'm still getting readings easily 10-100x the recommended amount. It may be time for the faraday cage...

I checked for the optimal placement of the bed. I have it deep against a corner in the basement that is basically sheltered from everything. Got RF emissions down to 0.005 mW/m^2 or so (Goal is 0.01, so scored there), got EF emissions to 0 V/m (perfect), and got MF emissions to 0.4 mG or so (I was hoping for 0.1, but at a minimum got under 0.5 which is OK). I am curious to see how I'll sleep now. I should note I am going to have to sleep on the floor (basically right up against the earth) since any amount of elevation doubles or triples the RF's.

Funny how ironically I kind of want to become a Caveman now. We started as cavemen... and maybe now we'll evolve (devolve??) to cavemen again, in order to hide from 5G lol

Getting one of those hobbit like houses would work too, use the earth for insulation from EMF

 

[Luna]

Does it measure how much the scanner itself emits?

 

[Cirion]

Either it doesn't emit anything or it is automatically calibrated, because I was able to get readings down to 0 in all the modes in certain places of the house (except RF, which I could not get below something like 0.002 mW/m^2 ever, which is pretty close to 0 though, I consider that close enough), and MF, which could not get below around 0.1-0.2. It's possible that the device itself emits 0.2 mG of MF, hard to say. RF emissions were hitting upwards of 30.000 mW/m^2 in some conditions. Even a ft or two away from the phone would easily see readings of 1-2 mW/m^2. Now I'll probably only use my phone when I have to, and never against my body, speakerphone always.

One thing I did notice that was interesting is that my own body had an electrical charge. When I would put my hand close to it, the reading for EF would increase - quite noticeably too (in some cases as much as 100 volts/meter. This makes sense, because I have heard that you can positively charge your body up to 100 volts or even more by being exposed to EF's. Being positively charged is detrimental to health but luckily you can drop charge quickly by being in a very low / zero voltage environment / ground yourself to the earth (I noticed this to be the case, the meter would stop increasing after I put myself in a 0 V location). I have my bed now in basically a grounded location, as close to the earth as I can get without being outside anyway.The only way to avoid the false EF reading was to grip the entire top portion of the device with my hand. Unfortunately many of us work in an office surrounded by electronics and probably carry a positive voltage for most of the day which is not good for your health. I will bring the scanner to work tomorrow to get some more interesting readings, this time for work. I am almost scared to though. With all those PC's, those electrical fields and RF readings in particular are gonna be... interesting.

First post is very informative, thanks for taking the time

A temporary solution to a charged body is methylene blue and red light

If you ever figure out any way to filter out outside EMF from entering your apartment, could you please let me know? You know a lot more about this than I do but what I do know is that EMF absolutely strongly negatively impacts me

Also if you don't mind sharing what is the meter you purchased?
