[Amps] Experience with Heart Pacemakers?

[John Lyles]

Being an old schooler myself, I tried to reason with a 'specialist'. I 
explained that some of the equipment they were labeling would emit far 
lower RF levels than their smartphone, comparable with radio noise that 
might show on S meter on a receiver.

They had a mandate to label everything that was above 1 V/m which is far 
below the 1 or 0.1 mW/cm^2 power density that RF safety regulations from 
OSHA, FCC and IEEE are concerned with. There is not a chance for 
reasonable science when someone has picked a number from the air (pun) 
like that.
