Still want an EV?

I have a video of me testing the microwave, wifi and other devices in my house - it absolutely doesn't "pick up" random FM transmissions. Ya'll are WILD with these comments.

Back in the 80s I was using equipment with costs around $500,000 to measure microwave equipment, I doubt I'd trust a $200 meter of that sort with no frequency tuning to tell me more than there is a bit of RF.

Back in the 80s a VCR costs $200, and a TV cost over 1000 (before adjusted for inflation) A cell phone was thousands, and calculator hundreds.

You don't have to trust anything, but it seems like you trust all these products are safe without doing any research or testing for yourself. And since I have (and clearly you have not) you want to s**t over all the links, equipment and methodology used without providing anything of value.

Be sure to track down every RF source in your local area of operation. That neighbor's smart home system? Cut the wires in the night. The wifi-enabled EV charger? EMP it.

Hope you don't own a Fitbit. Maybe you have ceiling fans that use IR remotes or physical switches, not RF remotes. Be cautious of all remotes in the house, too, along with any video game systems, stereo receivers, or your DVR. Your dog might even have a ping-able microchip! Hope no one drives past your house with their blind-spot monitors emitting RF. Don't stand near any car as it parks or you might get splashed by its ultrasonic parking sensor's deathrays.

Take it from a licensed RF engineer, man. You can't escape simple RF bouncing through your windows from every which source, even if it's not 'high power'. Getting gaslit by the RF-equivalent of a Fisher Price children's phone is just as unhealthy as sitting on top of some EV batteries as every car around you washes you with RF from their blind spot systems, safety systems, and adaptive cruise control.

I can walk up to my smart meter and see it peg the charts at the high end. Then walk outside near my neigbours house and pick up readings while in range of his wifi.

On the flipside, I can go turn off my wifi and go into an closet and get a low/no reading.

Good news, I don't have any of those nor do I have those issues.

Gaslit? Again, did I mention that my wife (and sister) have EMF sensitivity? Do you know what licensed Engineers say? Get a RF meter, test it yourself and try to mitigate it by either turning it off, or using something else entirely.

You know what's funny - people who have one ZERO research on any of this, telling people who have tested it (including the videos I posted with much more expensive equipment than mine) that there is nothing wrong.
I'm not stopping you by from putting microwaves in your brain - but don't mock me because I don't want to.

I just noticed - these two guys were located in CA - I'm not surprised they would tear down any type of concerns that effect their precious EVs.

For everyone else - I wouldn't drive an EV, and sure as hell wouldn't be in one while it's charging.

How does he use the internet if he’s so afraid of EM radiation?

I'll say a thing about mobile phones in that when it is on me it is switched OFF, I turn it on say every hour to catch any messages then it goes off again and in the car it goes in the glove box switched on that I can still make or receive a call hands free.

And yet, generalized anxiety disorder is very treatable. There is no reason for so many of you to stay so brutally fearful.

Life is good.

As the saying goes 'there is nothing to fear but fear itself' but how fear is seen by ppl is another matter.
As far as EV's are concerned there is another 'fools rush in where angels fear to tread' which stands out in red letters to me.

I'll get us back on track. I see no point to buying an expensive vehicle that has a low range vs. recharge ratio, especially since the ratio is significantly variable dependent upon the weather. None of that is fear, rather its just common sense.

Engineering jokes don't go over so well; I was pretty much being sarcastic. I doubt there is any real concern with magnetic fields in any EV.

I think it’s clear I’m not responding to that. Very clear.
