Appliances Introducing Stealth EMF Into Our Homes

Your trusty washing machine- now hazardous to your health?

This morning we received an open letter from Sage, Principal of Sage

Associates, an environmental consulting firm based in Santa Barbara.  What

she reports below is very disturbing- that appliances are already being

fitted with transmitters to connect to the ‘smart’ grid via the ‘home area

network.’

The problem here is that these decisions- to install smart meters, to have

your washing machine chatting behind your back with your utility through

the “Home Area Network†(HAN)- have all been made behind closed doors- at

exclusive resorts and conferences where utilities, regulators and appliance

manufacturers hatch ambitious schemes without any consultation with the people

whose lives will be affected by these technologies. We can catch a glimpse

of the arrogant mindset behind this truly stupid program from reading through

PG & E’s internal presentations on the SmartMeter program.

Moral of the story- beware when you buy any new appliances- they may come

with a nasty electromagnetic surprise inside.  Always ask before buying, and l

et them know you don’t want wireless!  Corporations should be even warier. 

As the hazards of wireless technology become well known throughout society-

hopefully this will hit these companies in their bottom line- about the

only thing they appear to pay any attention to.   Boycott the HAN!  Refuse

Smart Meters!  -SSM!

From Sage:

Dear Friends,

This is a personal story.  We just purchased a new Bosch washer and dryer –

for delivery next week.  Sam Milham happened to call this morning and said

the following:

“I’ve just tested a home with an oven and dishwasher that had

continuously radiating RF from internal power transmittersâ€.  He could verify

the RF

signal was continuous, and only stopped when he threw the circuit breakers for

those appliances (turned off the electricity to them).  He could say with

certainty the RF signal came from the appliances, because the signal was

strongest at the appliance and attenuated with distance.

We have been told that these power transmitters will – in the future – be

placed on appliances to monitor and report their energy usage to a wireless

smart meter. Further, they should only be giving off RF pulses (the signal)

very infrequently.  According to Tell, an electrical engineer

formerly with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) — in a 2008

report

on Smart Grids for Hydro One Networks, Inc./Toronto — antennas on appliances

may transmit at a density of .18watts, each at ballpark 4.5 seconds per

hour.  Well, these appliance power transmitters are, in at least some cases,

transmitting CONTINUOUSLY.  This puts them into a category more like wireless

routers and WI-FI.  No one is going to tolerate 12-15 such power transmitters

inside their homes that radiate full time.  These are appliances you come

into close contact with while you cook and move around your kitchen. 

Multiple, continuously transmitting RF sources are absolutely unacceptable to

people with EHS and some ADA people with medical implants.

Bosch customer service confirmed that both the washer and dryer we have on

order contain power transmitters. They cannot be ‘deactivated’.  We

cancelled our order this morning.
