Electromagnetic fields from Monitors

I wouldn't worry about it, they get more from their electric blanket, heating pad or water bed than they do from monitors.

From the research I have done over the years on this subject. The miligaus's that are produced in 90% of monitors now are extremely low. (Most of the new monitors already are Low-EMF. Of course you buy cheap you get cheap)

But if they are still worried - then purchase a mili-Gaus meter - take the readings - remember most workers sit - 1 to 2 feet away from the monitors. Measure from there - Most of the EMF emmissions will come from the rear of the monitors not the front.

Researchers have not been able to link any form of cancer or birth defects to EMF from a monitor. (unless these folks sit on the monitor for a few years.) - But it sounds like the same hype the press released 6 years ago all over again. (Made me money on research projects)

Miligaus meters will run you a couple of hundred dollars - there are places on the internet that will tell you the recommended gaus output - and ways to reduce it... But I found (from hundreds of monitors) only high levels from the very old (before 1989) and terminals..(IBM 3278/3279 types)

Good Luck - and enjoy the research - PS Contact your local college and see if their research department has anything on it.. and happy reading...Hope this information helps..
