Amak - Low emf products

CHELSEAPAUL
I have found a company that produces low emf monitors, televisions and other useful products.

http://www.engelsk.dinstudio.se/news_1.html

Quite expensive but could be worth it for anyone who works in front of a computor all day and finds that this is the main cause cause of their electrosensitivity (like me).  If anyone has any experience of these products please let me know as I am quite tempted by the monitor in particular.

Thanks

Paul

Yes a computer monitor that didn't burn my face would be nice. Let us know if you get one & if it works. Loni

Low EMF display

There ought to be some cheaper monitors if you do some online shopping. Try to get a TCO compliant LCD flat panel display: http://www.tcodevelopment.com/pls/nvp/Document.Show?CID=4146&MID=467

Benefits:
"Reduced electric and magnetic fields"  
"Low user exposure to electromagnetic fields"
I believe the max exposure is around 2 mG.  

For max comfort, check for .29 mm dot pitch or better supporting 75 Hz frequency with 1200x1024 or better resolution.  I'm guessing the regular AVI interface might be more tolerable than the DVI interface, but I don't know for sure.

My experience is different...

- the less the resolution is, the better.  In this case, resolution is
  determined by the video card output (set in the operating system),
  not the actual resolution of the monitor.

- the lower the refresh rate, the better (60 khz looks fine on an LCD,
  although you'd probably need 70+ khz on a CRT)

- larger screens are good, because you can move them further away from
  you and still see them.  I used HDTV's as computer monitors, as they
  are large and low-resolution compared to "real" computer monitors.

- I do think the old 15-pin VGA video cable interface is more tolerable
  than a DVI or HDMI cable.

Re: Low EMF display

TCO certification seems like a good idea, but for monitors
I'm afraid it's useless... unless you are sitting very close
what matters is the RF radiation and their standards are
the same for that as all other monitors.

For keyboards it might make mores sense, but even there
they should add RF limits.

A lot of people do need faster refresh for their eyes to
be happy, though for me it's not a huge issue.
