Cell phones are very high emitters of electromagnetic radiation, especially when in active use (talking, streaming, surfing). So when we hold these devices close to our body and actively use them, we are exposed to levels of radiation much higher than what research shows us to be safe. Using a wired connection for your iPhone is a simple and effective way to dramatically lower your exposure to this microwave radiation. Simply plug it in and switch your phone to airplane mode (checking that Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are off) and you’re good to go.

Note: While in airplane mode connecting to cell towers for calls / texts, on a phone plan, will not work.

Compared to regular routers these models from JRS Eco Wireless can significantly reduce your total exposure levles. They accomplish this with a variety of built in features. When they are not being used they switch to standby mode and do not emit RF (Radio Frequency) radiation. They also reduce the pulse frequency of the signal, resulting in less radiation. The white D2 model has a few extra features, including a wireless on/off button. For those not willing to go totally wired these are a great option.

These Powerline Adapters turn your home’s electrical wiring into a network connection. You simply plug your router into a PowerLine adapter, using an ethernet cable, and then any outlet you plug another PowerLine Adapter into will be live with internet, ready for a wired connection. These filters produce dirty electricity, so plugging a Greenwave or Stetzer filter into the same outlet can be helpful.

When you’re looking to expand on the number of wired connections you can have, especially when the router is not in the same room as you, an Ethernet Data Switch or Hub is what you need. You simply plug an active ethernet connetion into one port and then this hub will allow you to split that one active internet connection into 7 more. These can be great additions to expand on your wired internet setup.

Note: Ungrounded devices, such as this, will produce elevated electric fields. Ensure the devices you have connected to this are grounded or you could ground this Hub itself with a USB Grounding Adapter from Electrahealth.

Don’t forget to also use the shielded and grounded ethernet cords which can be found above.

When working to limit our exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation, the first step is fixing the sources which come from devices within our home. After this issue is addressed our focus can turn to outside sources of RF. To mitigate these external sources, special materials are often needed. Safe Living Technologies offers a range of materials that can be used to accomplish this task.

Any shielding materials that are being used should be installed by a professional and proper readings should be taken before and after installation to ensure it is achieving the desired effect. Improperly installed shielding can increase your exposure levels, sometimes dramatically.

When using a laptop that is plugged in, ensure that the power cord is grounded (3 prongs instead of 2). By grounding your computer you give the electricity a better route out and drastically reduce your body voltage.

You can purchase grounded extension cords for Macs below (as newer model MacBooks don’t come with a grounded plug).

Another option is using a grounded USB cord that runs from the USB port to a grounded outlet. They can be ordered from LessEMF. Under ‘EMF Shielding Products’ click on ‘Earthing Products & Ground Cords’ then scroll down to the USB Ground Cord.

If you’re looking to extend the reach of your printer, or other USB connected device, these extension cables are what you need. 

You can purchase 10ft or 32ft foot long USB extension cables below. 

These switches allow you to turn off the power to any devices plugged into a certain outlet. This can be useful in a bedroom to help eliminate AC electric fields from power cords around your bed or for use in shutting off power to devices that continually emit RF radiation, even when switched off (e.g., many Smart TV’s).

There is a manual option which requires pushing a switch at the outlet while the second option uses a remote control. These can be handy for hard to reach outlets or for those with mobility issues.

Note: These remotes use a quick burst of RF but don’t continually emit, however this may be an issue for the electrically hypersensitive.

These, more affordable, radon test kits require being sent to a lab for results. One option captures air in your house for 3-7 days before being closed up and sent away to the lab. They will give you a snapshot of what your levels are like at that time. These can be a useful way to gauge whether further investigation is necessary.

You can also order a month – one year long test kits (the longer you test for the more information you’ll have). These long term tests are more useful in determing seasonal exposure level changes, however you will have to wait a while for the results.

HEPA vacuum cleaners, with a totally sealed body, have become the gold standard in the vacuum cleaning industry, especially for those who suffer from indoor allergies and asthma. The difference in quality between brands can be considerable and you often get what you pay for. These are two great options.
