Milgauss & Hybrid Cars Info
*** SAW THIS ON ANOTHER FORUM & THOUGHT I'D SHARE ***
** Hope I'm not breaking any forum rules. If so, Mods please delete ** "Just noticed this article in the NY Times re electromagnetic fields inside hybrid cars. "E.M.F. levels of up to 135 milligauss at the hip and up to 100 milligauss at the upper torso" quoted on field strengths. From Wikipedia: "The earth's magnetic field is 0.5 gauss, a small iron magnet is about 100 gauss, a small Neodymium-iron-boron (NIB) magnet is about 2,000 gauss, a big electromagnet is about 15,000 gauss." The measurements in the hybrid are clearly much lower than these levels. An interesting topic nevertheless. Toyota says there's no problem. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/27/automobiles/27EMF.html"
