Protect Your Family from EMF Pollution

Recommended EMF Meters

The following are the EMF meters I recommend for your use (Updated August 2021). They are sensitive/accurate enough for most people, but will not break the bank. They will also allow you to correctly measure all four types of electromagnetic fields. These are simply the best EMF meters I have found over the past ten years of work in this field.

You get a 5% discount on the listed prices below when you use my distributor code of EMFA at checkout. Your meters will arrive from Safe Living Technologies in Toronto within a few days. SLT is a very reputable company, which is why I work with them for EMF meter and Bed Canopy purchases. Any questions you have about your order or the meters will come directly to me. I will also send you a free copy of my book and provide helpful instructions for the meters once you make your purchase.

Recommended EMF Meter Packages:

Package #1 is my preferred EMF meter combination as it is quite sensitive/accurate. However, if this is too expensive for you, Package #2 is a good compromise.

Package #1  (Recommended):

With your 5% discount, the total price for this very accurate EMF meter package is $1,010, plus shipping from SLT.

I also recommend an AM radio, which can typically be found on ebay for about $20. You want to get the Radio Shack AM Radio Model # 12-467 or 12-464 model to detect EMI on your home wiring (newer AM radios have noise suppression technology). This TECSUN shortwave radio is also good for detecting EMI. Contact me to learn how to do this.

** The ME3830B is an accurate, easy-to-use, single-axis meter for measuring electric fields. However, if you want a more sensitive meter, with readings to 0.1 V/m, I suggest upgrading to the ME3851A ($410). This is the digital electric field meter I use, as seen in the images and video below.

The following are pictures of the meters with the ideal measurements for your home.

[At left the Safe and Sound Pro II (I have the beta version) shows minimal RF levels (below 1 uW/m2). The Alpha Lab UHS2 measures 0.02 mG for magnetic fields, which is excellent (below 0.1 mG is ideal).  Finally, at right is the grounded Gigahertz Solutions ME3851A with an electric field reading of 2.1 V/m (below 1.0 V/m is recommended for sleeping/work environments). You can learn more about using these meters and what can be done to reduce EMF levels in your home in my my book, “How to Find a Healthy Home.”]

[The above image shows how I use the meters to measure my computer workstation. It includes the Safe and Sound Classic and my AM radio.]

[The above photo is the Alpha Labs Line EMI Meter. At left is a high EMI reading (homes with solar systems – or that have neighbors with solar systems – can be as high as 2,000 mV). At right is an ideal EMI level, which is considered to be excellent power quality.]

Package #2  (Mid-Range):

The total price with discount for this mid-range EMF meter package is $489, plus shipping from SLT.

I also recommend an AM radio, which can typically be found on ebay for about $20. You want to get the Radio Shack AM Radio Model # 12-467 or 12-464 model to detect EMI on your home wiring (newer AM radios have noise suppression technology). This TECSUN shortwave radio on Amazon also works well for EMI. Contact me to learn how to find and eliminate EMI sources with the radio.

How to Use Your EMF Meters:

Here is a short video where you can easily learn how to use the meters I recommend above:

In the following images, you will see how beneficial having such EMF meters can be. The top picture shows the initial EMF readings at a home I recently visited (at my bed). These levels are much too high for an electrically sensitive person and unhealthy for the general population. RF readings are 1.0 V/m (3,000 µW/m2); Magnetic Fields are 0.70 mG; and Electric Fields are over 18 V/m. Line EMI readings were 300 V/m, which is acceptable.

I then went about my investigation of the home and found that there was one wiring error causing the magnetic field. I simply unplugged everything from the affected circuits (If it were my home, I would have an electrician fix the error). I then determined which circuits were causing the high electric fields and switched off one circuit affecting the bedroom. Finally, I put Naturell shielding fabric on two walls (I could have also used my bed canopy), which significantly reduced the RF exposure, as you can see below:

After less than one hour of detective work, I was able to bring the RF levels down to a healthy 0.02 V/m (1.0 µW/m2); Magnetic Fields to a very acceptable 0.04 mG; and Electric Fields to an exceptionally low 0.4 V/m. I then slept deeply, woke feeling refreshed and had no brain fog or head tension while at this home. In most cases, you can do the exact same thing in your home with these EMF meters and/or the help of an EMF professional.

What about cheap EMF Meters?

Inexpensive combination meters such as the Cornet ED88T Plus, TriField TF2, GQ 390 and ENV RD-10 and are just not accurate enough for anyone who truly wants a low-EMF home. They are excellent meters to help you start learning about electromagnetic fields and to see if there is a major problem in your environment that needs to be addressed. However, if you are electrically sensitive or have health issues, you ultimately need more accurate meters such as those outlined above. If you hire an EMF professional (contact me for a referral in your area) they will have professional meters like this set.

This video shows why I don’t recommend inexpensive 3-in-1 EMF Meters:
