Some people cannot be around strobe lights, they set off visually triggered seizures.
Strobe lights are known to have neurological effects, and are not allowed to be sold if they strobe at a rate above 10 pulses per second. The “smart” meter pulses can go off at a rate of 2 to 20 per second. The spiked pulses are like a strobe light, which also emits spiked pulses, about 1/2 millisecond each. At least 90% of the pulses are not your data, but the “mesh network” talking to itself-also known as network “chatter.” The 2-millisecond spikes of RF (radio-frequency) it emits are randomly assigned to a pattern of alternating frequencies-the pulses keep shifting which frequency they are using. The PG&E Silver Springs Network “smart” meter operates in the 902-928 MHz range, near the range of most cell phones, and in the radio-frequency microwave range (300 MHz to 3 GHz). Q: What frequency do they operate at, and what sort of radiation do they emit? This is for the convenience of your utility, and its effects on you (and other living things) apparently were not even considered when they were designing the mesh network. Recent information “off the record” from PG&E confirms our suspicion that at least 90% of the RF emitted by the “smart” meters is NOT transmitting your electrical usage data, but is part of the “mesh network” talking to itself, and includes a lot of redundant “chatter” between your meter and other meters. The rate and intensity of the RF radiation is also not under your control, and we are coming to learn, it is not under the utility’s control.
And you can’t turn it off once it’s installed.Ī “smart” meter is a device you cannot turn off or move, so your exposure to this source of RF is out of your control. But most people are not offered a wired “smart” meter. Growing public awareness of RF exposure has led people to choose a wired internet connection or use a wired phone at home. But people are becoming increasingly aware of the potential harm done by chronic exposure to RF radiation-emitting devices and are taking steps to change how they use them. “Smart” meters are unlike cell phones or WiFi in their bizarre pattern of sharp spikes of RF.īoth of those consumer devices (cell phones and WiFi) can be strong RF emitters. The figures for RF exposure given by utilities are time-averaged numbers which hide the peak power of the “smart” meter, and disguise the fairly continuous nature of the pulses. In some cases this is true, and in some cases not true. Q: My utility says “smart” meters emit less than my cell phone or WiFi.
Why is RF radiation bad for people (and animals and plants)?.
How high are the pulses on “smart” meters?.But my utility says they only emit for about a minute a day? Which is true? I see videos online of “smart” meters pulsing a lot.Why do the utility websites say that “smart” meters have low RF emissions?.My utility says they will shut off the “radio” part for a fee.What frequency do they operate at, and what sort of radiation do they emit?.My utility says “smart” meters emit less than my cell phone or WiFi.
