Re: Re: Faraday Cage Idea!

Faraday cages can be tricky. First there is the issue of the bed. A regular bed

has metal springs. The springs act as antennas. Then there is the frame and

support panels. These are often made of metal. The best way to do this whole

thing, is to have a non metal spring bed (futon mattress pad is one example), a

wooden frame with wooden slats for support. This takes care of the metal in the

bed issue. Then there is the issue of wiring in wall and nearby outlets and

nearby lamps, clocks, etc. Clocks inside the cage should be battery operated.

The cage should NOT be located near wall outlets, or walls with wiring in them.

MOst all houses have wiring IN the walls...and often, also IN the floors beneath

the bed, and sometimes, in the ceiling too. So if a bed is next to a wall with

wiring in it, and you put a " cage " around the bed- you will be essentially

locking in all those emf's INSIDE the cage. Best to move the bed five feet away

from the walls.

Some people can turn off the circuit to their bedroom, which kills the power

going to that room. HOwever, if the bed is near a wall where say, the hallway

light wiring is INSIDE that wall..this can be an issue as well. **And of vital

importance...is to make sure that your wiring is properly done and there are no

wiring mistakes. Wiring mistakes are common, and you can buy a 3 dollar OUTLET

TESTER at HOme Depot, and plug this tester into outlets, and it will tell you if

the outlet is wired properly. However, checking the wiring in a ceiling light,

either in the bedroom, or in the hallway, is not that simple. You need an

electrician to check the wiring in those light fixtures.

As for using the carbon paint, I don't have personal experience with this; but I

have read of many using this paint, only to find it made things worse for them.

It does have to be grounded..and I think this is going to be an issue that is

greatly dependent upon the individual, how the house is wired, the location of

various cell towers and antennas in the area, along with neighbors sattelite

dishes which can reflect various emf's. And too, there is now the added issue of

smart meters.

What would be the wrong thing to do? Is there anything " bad " about being in a

cage? I have read somewhere that our own beds act like faraday due to the metal

- and it keeps out the good stuff as well as the bad? I have no idea where I

found that little nugget. I can try to find it tho.

Is there any reason you may not want to stay in a faraday cage? Does it stop the

good qualities of earth's magnetic fields *or something else? from occuring too?

For I was considering making my daughters room close to a cage as possible. Tint

on windows, carbon paint on walls, fabrics on floor and windows etc. But could I

be doing more harm than good?

Could I be TRAPPING the bad in there with her?

Yes I was told that when you make the room a faraday cage by putting the

blocking on the walls, ceiling, doors, and then sheilding on the windows that

you are trapping the bad signals in the room and they will bounce off.

 

I did that in my master bedroom and it did not work for me. Just my experience.

I think a hardware store would have some. Has anyone insulated w steel wool &

noticed a difference?

Where would you get the steel wool at.   I got a wall I’m planning on

making thicker in my next project. Instead of adding more insulation I’d like

to try putting in some steel wool if it was cheap enough just to see what effect

it had on me.

Loni,

Do you have tint on the windows? Believe it or not the Gila  from Home Depot or

Lowes helps me. Try the mirrored, so you won't feel like it's a cave.

I tried both sleeping faradays from LessEMF  They didn't help when we had smart 

meters.

I don't know if they would now since ours are off.

Oh wow, you have a smart meter?  Can you remove it. I don't think you can block

it enough. they are dangerous and lots of areas are offering opt outs!

 

You don't have the wifi in use do you? 

 

You could also try turning off the electric at night by breaker to cut down on

emf's.

Thank you Loni. I really need to do more investigating. I did the obvious:

bought wooden bed, latex/cotton mattress, removed ALL electrical items - there

is only the ceiling light and one lamp. There is nothing underneath in the

basement - I moved it (wifi) into her dad's workroom where no.one.ever.goes.

There is a pulse on her closet wall (inside). Shares the wall with the smart

meter reading unit attached to the house on the other side *of her closet wall.

Would REALLY love to do something possible to stop the pulse from going into the

house and letting it shoot straight out somehow.

What are snap on ferrites?  Loni

I’ve been working on my faraday cage for a long time. It takes a lot of work.

I would agree that you can’t just put up some aluminum siding and expect it to

work for you. I shortened the wiring circuit in the bedroom. I have one outlet

that works on the other side of the room. All the other outlets on the circuit

that were near the bed were removed by disconnecting the wiring at the first

outlet that fed the remaining outlets. I agree no outlets should be near the

bed. I’ve had to do a lot of work to remove the bad energy and electricity

from inside the faraday cage. So I agree with all the above posts. But if you

are willing to put in the time and effort to make a good cage then to me it is

well worth it. Also I have mostly the old technology in my home. It’s the new

technology and the new electronics that make me ill. I have old tvs. None have a

digital tuner in them. Plus I’ve also learned that snap on ferrites over the

wiring to remove the

noise off the wiring is just as good and maybe even more important than stetzer

filters.
