I was dismayed to discover the rf frequency was microwaves and indeed causes tissue cellular damage, especially at the "safe" standards the US advocates. In the cellular studies California did, they proved cellular damage at the supposed "safe" levels. So what's my point? I had been using a Bluetooth mouse for over a year, and wondered why my palm was burning after using it for long periods when I never experienced that phenomen before, which lead me to do some research. So I decided to get rid of my Bluetooth mouse, and wouldn't you know it, my palm stopped hurting. I went to an $8 generic wired mouse with a big grip and am happy. Take care.
PS if anyone is interested, I can provide links, but I'm not at my computer atm.
Yeah I'd like to see those links.

Quote:Bluetooth uses the microwave radio frequency spectrum in the 2.402 GHz to 2.480 GHz range, which is non-ionizing radiation, of similar bandwidth to the one used by wireless and mobile phones. No specific demonstration of harm has been demonstrated up to date, even if wireless transmission has been included by IARC in the possible carcinogen list. Maximum power output from a Bluetooth radio is 100 mW for class 1, 2.5 mW for class 2, and 1 mW for class 3 devices. Even the maximum power output of class 1 is a lower level than the lowest-powered mobile phones.
Aloe vera is also on the IARC list of "possible carcinogens".
