Trace the source of electrosmog and root out the cause of microwave radiation
The BR15 – ideal for use both at home and in the office.
The radiation spill that hit the headlines recently has caused many people to change their outlook and has made them more alert to the problems of radiation. But even these people often forget is that in today’s modern world we are surrounded by microwave radiation almost wherever we go.
Microwave radiation? Doesn’t that just come from microwave ovens?
The answer is quite simply “No”. We rely on cordless phones, mobiles, Bluetooth, wireless broadband and DECT telephones for entertainment and communication. Such cutting-edge technology can only work with microwave radiation. Similarly satellite TV, remote control devices, CCTV systems and anti-theft systems in shops also all work with microwaves. Did you know that?
Microwave radiation belongs to the category of high-frequency electromagnetic fields (HF fields). The term electrosmog is a reference to microwave radiation or the presence of so-called HF fields. And most experts are agreed that high levels of microwave radiation can seriously affect your health.
That’s why Germany has an ordinance for electromagnetic fields which is designed to protect the public against radiation emitted from fixed transmitters like mobile phone masts, for example. Before such a mast is installed, extensive testing is carried out to determine an adequate safety distance to residential areas so that, amongst other things, no one with a pacemaker is affected.
But how does microwave radiation actually affect your health?
Low levels of microwave radiation are considered harmless. That’s why legally defined threshold values (up to 5mW/ cm² depending on the source) are not allowed to be exceeded.
But despite the laws and ordinances that have been put into place to protect the public, some people who live close to such mobile phone masts still suffer from conditions like sleep disorders, migraines, heart rhythm disturbances, fits of tiredness and even exhaustion although there is apparently no organic cause.
What has been proven, however, is that heat develops in the human body. This is because electric charges affect certain molecules in the human body. This in turn leads to an increase in the temperature of the body tissue. Frequencies from mobile phones can penetrate human tissue up to a depth of approximately 10cm. When emission thresholds are adhered to, then the heat that develops should not increase by more than 1° C. If it were to, then this could seriously affect the health of the person in question, e.g. by effecting a change in the body’s metabolism.
So how can you find out if the thresholds that exist where you are are adhered to or not?
An old microwave oven, the broken display of a mobile, a mobile phone mast near you – how can you be sure if the electrosmog around you poses a health risk or not?
The BR15 microwave meter can measure microwave radiation both quickly and reliably. The value is presented on the easy-to-read display. If the measured value is above the ICNIRP maximum threshold value of 5 mW/cm², then the BR15’s acoustic alarm and the alarm on the display alert the user immediately to warn him or her that the protective threshold value has been exceeded.
More information on the BR15 – the pocket-sized microwave meter.
The BR15 is a real lightweight: It weighs only150g and because it is so compact (160 x 60 x 42 mm) it sits snugly yet firmly in the palm of your hand and fits easily into any pocket. In addition, it is equipped with a crystal clear, easy-to-read digital display with large numerals.
The BR15 does not come alone: there is a battery and a carry case included in the scope of delivery.
