Dangers of wi-fi

[beesonthewhatnow]

Just found this site

http://www.powerwatch.org.uk/

and yep, it has THE tinfoil hat

Yet you still view it as a credible source of information?

Is that not just a beekeeper?

From what I have seen it looks well-researched, is there anything in it that you object to? Other than the most amusing head screening product of course.

Other than the basic concept of the site, not a great deal, no

Still think wi-fi is the same as a microwave oven Jazz?

He didn't say that.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi uses the spectrum near 2.4 GHz....
The frequencies for 802.11 b/g span 2.400 GHz to 2.487 GHz.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_oven

A microwave oven works by passing microwave radiation, usually at a frequency of 2450 MHz

So wi-fi does work in the same frequency range as microwave ovens but hopefully at a lot lower power.

cunt off.... oooh shiny thing...

Where!?

My egg has been sat on the router for 45 minutes now.

Who wants to guess how long til it's cooked?

Hmmm,

Lets see Wifi is regulated in the UK to a max of 0.1 watts. Often output is one tenth that.

Microwave ovens are 650 to 1000watts. But are, of course sealed so no radiation escapes from a certified, annually checked oven.

I would say that....just a minute, I need to turn my 60watt light bulb on operating at a much mnuch higher frequency than my wifi to read this.

Yes, I'm afraid you are in danger. Be especially careful during the day,you may see a large yellow object in the sky. It is zapping the whole planet with radiation.

don't look at the numbers look at the name giga hertz mega hertz...

don't look at the numbers look at the name giga hertz mega hertz...

So 2450 MHz doesn’t equal 2.45 GHz then?

 

[cybertect]

2450 MHz = 2450 * 10^6 Hz = 2.45 * 10^9 Hz = 2.45 GHz

Been sat too close to the wi-fi router?
