Re: Metal Bed (Earth Calm Products)

steve
I tried getting 3 of them but the cheap plastic in the strip outgassed and made me a little sick, so i returned them and just got the one 3 plug.
I've been moving it around to see where it helps the most-it didnt help in my bedroom, it helped by the TV a little but helps most by the fridge

So it's the 8-outlet version that smells of chemicals, but the 3-outlet
version does not?  You could just use multiple 3-outlet ones then.

When I bought these (8-10 years ago), none of them smelled of chemicals
(they were all based on Power Sentry models back then).

Yes, the strip smelled bad. I could use more of the 3 outlet ones but when I tried one in my room I didn't like it-for some reason was more agitated although it could have been a coincidence

With the Quantum 3-outlet plug-in, I have experience "hyper-ness" and
an inability to fall asleep when it is plugged into a power outlet
in my bedroom.  However, I also feel bad without it plugged in due
to the space heater.  So my solution to this was to put it on a
timer -- I have it automatically turn on and off about every
20 minutes throughout the night.  The result -- less feeling bad
from the space heater, plus I can fall asleep.

I was thinking of trying the earth calm in my bedroom to see if it would help with insomnia as they say. They also said it helps with the smart meters which is my main problem right now. i call quantum to see if the quantum home helps with them but haven't received a reply yet.
I would prefer not using a timer since I think i would react to it coming on and off

The only reaction I have to the timer is the noise it makes when things
get turned on/off, but both my wife and I seem to sleep through that
without problems.

I've never noticed the Earthcalm plug-in causing the "hyper-ness" that
the Quantum Products can.  It has it's own unique side effects... :-)

That noise would wake me up, I'm a very light sleeper.
And what would those unique side effects be pray tell? :)

Of the Earthcalms?

In our experience, I've noticed bad side effects from me,
my wife, AND our cats (!).  Typically they are things
like nausea, headaches, "feeling bad", etc.  Typical
"detox" side effects.

Solution?  Use it less.

I just got the pocket polarizer. Which side is supposed to face your skin if its in my pocket-the copper color side or black? Is it OK to just stick it in my pocket like that?

In the past, the advise has typically been:

  1) put on left side of body
  2) have the "front" (is there a design on it?  that's the front) facing
     away from the body

I'm not sure that I've ever noticed any difference doing it the above
way or not!  I just put them in a pants pocket.

OK, thanks, lets see what happens.
Oh, I just ordered the Furman PST8D from Amazon for $141. Good price, just $70 more than the Tripplite Entertainment Center with 10 outlets.
The Brickwall is going on ebay.
