Re: [PSES] RF shielding in clothing.

[Doug Powell]

Larry, Thanks for your responses. I have seen this sort of thing before. I seem to recall someone selling a type of RF absorbing ointment for your skin, a power cord that cleans the power from your outlet before it gets to your audio system and so on. While there may be some effect, I think this is mostly snake oil. Thanks, - doug Douglas Powell http://www.linkedin.com/in/dougp01   From: Larry K.

If the fabric really did work, then your battery would be dead because it would be in constant high power mode trying to find an available cell tower, which means each time you placed it in this magic fabric you would have to turn your phone off. Now wouldn’t that accomplish the same goal?

I ran across this article that claims to shield cell phones from hackers at specific operating frequencies.    ‎http://www.engadget.com/2014/09/04/1984-anti-surveillance-fashion/?utm_medium=feed&utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_campaign=Engadget&ncid=rss_semi   Has anyone here ‎had experience with this fabric and does it actually work?   Thanks, - doug Douglas Powell http://www.linkedin.com/in/dougp01   - ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
