May this lead to a safer, healthier world.\n\n\n--\nfinancial costs from acting on that conviction.\n\nElectric Vehicle\nI bought at 2017 Bolt EV on January 5, 2018 for $42,428.   I love the car! But within several months I realized I was becoming disoriented when driving it.  At one point I was lost in my own neighborhood. \nI had been hearing about the adverse effects of radio frequency (RF), so I purchased an EMFields Acousticom 2, which displays RF in volts/meter.  Inside the Bolt, the meter showed red light warnings of 3 to 6 V/m.   I turn everything off that seemed a possible cause for that reading but nothing changed.  I took the car to the Napa Chevy dealer where the technician was also unable to reduce the RF.  He called back to Michigan where they told him that the RF could not be turned off because the car would not work.  [Around the house I had started thinking I was getting old because tying my slipper laces had become complicated.  After I quit driving the bolt tying my slipper laces once again became quite easy.]\n\nFor someone who was not as aware as I was, they could have been diagnosed with dementia with the real cause unknown!\nMy brain was much more valuable than the car, so on 8/21/2020 I sold the car for $17,500 losing $24,959\n\nSOLAR\nIn the spring of 2018 I paid $19,350 for the installation of 16 solar panels. The installation included an Enphase solar reporting system with a clever app that would tell you how much each of your panels were producing and when.  \n\nHVAC\nHeat pumps are energy efficient heating and cooling systems. In May 2018 I paid for a ducted Fujitsu mini split HVAC system.\nBetween the solar and the HVAC, our PG&E bill was reduced and I was happy we were doing our part to reduce climate change.\n\nRF SAFE HOME?\nBY 2022 I was having adverse reactions to RF. I had  done everything I could to create an RF safe home.  All of our devices we’re connected via Ethernet. My cell phone was always either off or in airplane mode.  An Ethernet adapter allowed me to send email and photos from my phone. Because I have a MacBook I could even send and receive texts from other iPhones.  I am grateful for my husband’s understanding and for family and friends who supported me by turning off their phones whenever they came to visit. \n\nBut my RF sensitivity was getting worse.  I was having difficulty tolerating the cell phones and Wi-Fi where we have loved to dance and socialize.  For my 80th birthday in 2023, I even paid for the cover charge for 50+ dancers with the ask that everyone keep their cell phones off or in airplane mode.  Everyone had a good time, and until then many of the people had no idea that there could be any harm from a cell phone.\nThanks to 5G, I was completely unable to tolerate attending our grandson’s football games where my brain would become paralyzed and there was intense pressure in my heart when I was around people who were recording and uploading videos to the internet as they were taking them.\n\nBUILDING BIOLOGIST TO THE RESCUE\nEric Windheim, a building biologist, did his first assessment here 12/28/23. He immediately discovered our Enphase solar reporting system and our “clean energy” Fujitsu mini split HVAC we’re radiating huge amounts of dirty electricity (DE) which were riding on our 110 electrical wires. As soon the circuit breakers for those two systems were turned off, my whole body felt relief from the tension I didn’t even know I had.\n\nThe Enphase breakers have remained off, and I was able to confirm, through the PG & E website, that we are getting credit for our solar.  The Enphase reporting system is unnecessary.\n\n\n\nfireplace and electric space heaters. Fortunately, our solar micro inverters we are much cleaner than large central inverters which have caused DE problems in earlier days.\n\n\n\n","attachments":["https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5813/attachment_1.pdf"],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5813","tags":["health-experiences","exposure-places"],"source_hash":"567e4bb26bc00c26fe9ebdaede506cfb44ed43266ee94f8b742557e4fd7a67d4","slug":"health-experiences-comment-5813","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5813","body_sha256":"74355b83b3093fb825ace6b4995ee907f3a14132219361d28905ae83aa3308bd","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"ehs","topics":[{"id":"ehs","evidence":"phones whenever they came to visit. \n\nBut my RF sensitivity was getting worse.
