Yes, the Stetzerizer filters are unique. They are designed to nullify
the specific range of frequencies that have been found to be associated with
RF Sickness. And they are designed to be placed in multiple places in a
building, to deal not only with the electrical pollution but also that created by
electronics in the building. They are also made of very high quality
components and materials.
Yes, the technology has been around, but the same technology can be used
to make items that vary quite a bit. For instance, think of all the water
or air purification systems on the market.
Dave did indeed post instructions, several years ago, on how to make
your own filters. You would be making one of the initial "models" of the
present Stetzerizer. The final model is patented.

I was referring to "Power Conditioners", which are popular in high-end
audio. These are not surge protectors, but things that actually clean
up the AC signal which is powering your stereo system. The problem
with these is that they cost a lot of money (in the hundreds or
thousands
of dollars):

Besides the german alternative to Stetzer filters, I now have found a dutch
alternative filter.
They are going to send me a sample, so I can test the working of it.

I still regard the Stetzer filters in the european version as *sloppy* and
*dangerous* in make.
