Something for anyone else, that might be helpful for tv's; I have a
small ?13" one.
For years it has been on a high shelf to watch, base at about 6'
level. Never noticed more than slight discomfort from it.
I recently moved it down to waist level to hook up with other
equipment and have easier access to wiring. Wow, was I surprised
when I turned it on, how much it bothers me. It's going to have to
go back up high. Inconvenicence better than ill.
Just wanted to mention, in case it might work for someone else.
Larger tv's, I can't watch long, like at a friend's across a room,
mobile home width say, I end up 'sunburned' from them. Gotta be
further. I notice like with pc's some are much worse than others.
