Phones emit non-ionising radiation which was thought to pose danger to humans only in high doses. Now, we know that even smaller regular doses can cause DNA damage that may eventually lead to various health risks including infertility and various cancers.  The problem now is two-fold, phones emit radiation almost constantly and we use them more than ever, keeping them next to our bodies almost 24/7. One alarming recent study by Childwise found that more than half of children sleep next to their mobile phones.  The truth is, we really are maximising our chances of exposure to harmful mobile pho ..read more

If you want to avoid cell phone radiation a common piece of advice is to put your phone on airplane mode, or flight mode. But is there cell phone radiation in airplane mode? What is airplane mode? Airplane mode cuts external communication with your cell phone. It’s a shortcut that you can press and your phone will switch off its network, WiFi, data, GPS, and Bluetooth. So it cuts connectivity. Originally – and the reason this is called airplane or flight mode – this was a requirement on airplanes. It’s also sometimes a requirement in hospitals, on petrol station forecourts, and other sensitive ..read more

Are you worried about phone radiation near babies? Unfortunately, there’s a lot of research but very little awareness of all the problems that can happen when phone radiation is near babies. Let’s have a look at the issue, and what we can do about it. Why is phone radiation near babies a problem? Mobile phone radiation, also known as electromagnetic frequencies, or EMF, are produced by all electrical devices. Mobile phones also use this form of radiation to communicate with the network to send and receive signal and data. The issue with this is that multiple scientific studies and lots of medi ..read more

When mobile phones were in their infancy it was phone tower radiation that received most of the health news. But the demand for better signal, coverage, and new 5G rollouts means that might be about to change. In the early 2000s there were lots of news stories about phone towers. Public concern about their dangers were high, and research was often reported. Locals mounted campaigns to oppose the construction of masts and it was a hotly debated topic. The concern was that the masts used and attracted huge amounts of mobile phone radiation. Much as our phones have an electromagnetic field of mob ..read more

If you don’t want to give up your phone you need to balance it with EMF safety. WaveWall is dedicated to keeping you safe from EMFs and our anti-radiation phone cases and other products are just one way of doing that. We also have lots of information on the blog covering frequently asked questions about mobile phone radiation, the danger of EMFs, news about mobile phones, and health issues that can be caused – like male infertility. We also look at the science behind mobile phone radiation and EMFs and try to raise awareness so people can make informed choices that are good for their health. F ..read more

What does a scientist born in 1791 have to do with your mobile phone? For WaveWall and anti-radiation protection, it’s a lot. Michael Faraday is that scientist. He died in 1867, ten years before the regular telephone was even invented. Faraday had little in the way of formal education and was notoriously not very good at mathematics. He was originally an apprentice bookbinder. But his discoveries and inventions in electrochemistry and electromagnetism are still used regularly today. While Faraday was studying the newfangled direct current (DC) electricity it was still mostly an academic phenom ..read more

Is laptop heat bad for you? If you’ve ever felt the heat from a laptop and wondered if it was actually a good idea to have that in your lap… you’d be right. And laptops give off much more than just heat. So let’s have a look at the heat from laptops, what else laptops radiate, and what you can do about it. Is laptop heat bad for you? Have you ever had second thoughts about putting a laptop in your lap because of the heat it was kicking out? That’s a good instinct to have. Depending on your laptop’s make, model, design, and age, it might give off more or less heat. In order to keep laptops slim ..read more

You might have heard that there is a link between phone radiation and the level of your phone’s battery. Does the phone’s charge affect the radiation? So we’re going to find out is phone radiation higher when battery low? What can affect phone radiation? There are lots of factors that affect the level of phone radiation. But is the battery one of them? Phone radiation is the electromagnetic field that the phone uses to communicate with the network. It also produces a small amount of EMF itself, as all electrical devices do. But the difference between a phone and other electrical appliances is ..read more

What’s the difference between mobile phone radiation and WiFi? We face off, mobile phone radiation vs WiFi, to find out. Mobile phone radiation vs WiFi – what are they? First of all, let’s talk a bit about mobile phone radiation and WiFi, what they are, and how they work. Both are on the electromagnetic spectrum that contains visible light, infrared, X rays, radio waves, and so on. They sit between radio waves and micro waves. It’s not in dispute that electromagnetic radiation can be damaging. Gamma rays, at the most extreme end, are deadly. X rays are limited because they are damaging to the ..read more

What’s the worry about getting phone radiation near testicles? Most of what you’ll hear about mobile phones is to do with cancers and tumours. Phone radiation near testicles: what’s the problem? We can’t afford to be squeamish here. Male infertility is a growing problem all over the world. Talking about it gets the newspapers imagining the apocalypse. And it causes heartbreak to would-be parents who struggle to conceive. It’s a problem that affects individuals and couples but it concerns all of humanity. So anything to do with male infertility needs to be talked about. One of the lesser known ..read more
