alarm clocks

Auntie Patricia
my roommate has a digital plug-in alarm clock.
i explained to him about EMF and showed him
how high the reading was for the alarm clock.
he was impressed.  
then we tested a battery-run clock that has
hands that move like a wind-up clock - it too
had SPIKES of EMF - EVERY SECOND - every
time the second hand moved, the EMF spiked.
i was shocked.  
then we tried a little battery-run digital alarm
clock and it measured nil.  so i loaned it to him.

alarm clocks
hair dryers
vacuum cleaners
fans in anything, anywhere
anything that makes heat
automobile brakes

want to add more items to the list?  feel free.  

but those are the things i have noticed are
the worst for me.  i don't have a smart meter
and pray that i never will.

Well, just because something registers on a particular meter
doesn't mean that you're going to have a negative reaction
to it.  I've used a plug-in digital alarm clock for years, with
no obvious reaction to it, although I'm sure it would register
on your meter.  Meanwhile, I've tried Blu-ray players that
don't register on any of my meters (or AM radio), but seems
as deadly to me as anything that's been discussed here
lately (smart meters, new cable modems, laptops, etc.)

perhaps the blu-ray players are emitting something
other than EMF?  

perhaps it is not EMF that you are sensitive to?  

marc, what exactly is a blu-ray player?  

how far from your alarm clock do you sleep?  work?  

how close to the blu-ray player do you sleep?  work?

Possibly, although EMF is the most likely culprit.  I just
don't have the right kind of meter to measure whatever
frequencies it is putting out.

> marc, what exactly is a blu-ray player?  

Do you know what a CD player is?  Something that plays CDs (music).

Do you know what a DVD player is?  Something that plays DVDs (movies).

A Blu-ray player is something that plays Blu-ray discs (high definition movies).
Essentially it is a computer, as it has a video decoding chip and runs Java
applications (and the newer models have Internet access, ethernet jacks,
and wi-fi)

It's about 4 feet away.

> how close to the blu-ray player do you sleep?  work?  

It bothers me from 10 feet away.

marc, it would be interesting to see how much EMF each puts out.
how high do your meters read?

I don't really trust meter readings, as none of the meters I
own are very expensive, and also meters are typically
designed to measure things that probably aren't
what I'm reacting to in the first place (e.g., low frequencies
vs. high frequencies, magnetic fields vs. electric fields, digital
waveforms vs analog waveforms, scalar information, etc.)

In reply to this post by Auntie Patricia
I got extremely bad magnetic readings from two uninterruptible power
supplies I had.  It went off the scale, and one of them was sending the
magnetism to other outlets and I was getting high readings from
appliances that were plugged into those outlets.  I got rid of those  My
microwave oven that I rarely used was leaking very high levels of
microwaves.  Gone. And those curly fluorescent  light bulbs were sending
out high EMF and RF frequencies.  Replaced.  That was the worst stuff I
found in my house.

thanks, tom.  
i added your items to the list.  
tom, what is an uninterruptible power supply?

An uninterruptible power supply is sort of like a giant surge protector
for a computer that has a big (usually lead-acid) battery in it to
supply temporary power to computer if the mains power goes out.
