Aluminum Foil and my computer mouse.

Hello All,

I think I read a post that talked about wrapping aluminum foil around the
inside of the mouse. Did I get that correctly? Or is it on the outside of
the mouse? My guess is that the foil acts as a barrier,

I read this once before and I thought it said to wrap the outside of the
mouse with the foil.
Now I'm not sure what to do. My mouse, the roller ball kind , bothers
me. My hand tingles and swells a bit when I use it.

If anyone can tell me how to remedy this I'd be grateful. I'm very
sensitive now because of the problem with my phone and I'm trying to lighten the
electrical load on my body. My nervous system is fried.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

puk replies - wrapping mouse in tin foil will not work for the lower  
frequencies, earthing the mouse on an earthed mouse matt might help though,but  
the earth would have to be a whole lot better than the draw from your body  
! you could try and source a battery powered infared mouse.

You could use shielding gloves like these

Where do I find an earthed mouse mat? I tried a battery operated mouse
and it's no better.

You can use this one, just trim it to the desired size with a sturdy
scissors:

I used to use the gloves, and I think they helped, even
when not grounded. A chemically sensitive friend
was concerned about what was in the gloves.

If it's a laptop try running it on battery.

A grounded shield can help with electric fields
but it will create a magnetic field.

I wish someone would make a heavy aluminum mouse
with fiber optic connection to the computer. This should
be affordable in the next couple years with Intel's' new
fiber optic devices.
