Protection Against Invisible Enemies
Unfortunately, not all threats are visible. However, there are solutions allowing you to fight even such threats. Using the Trifield 100XE EMF Meter may be regarded as a great protecting measure against serious issues caused by some categories of EMF. The distinguishing feature of that meter is that it is capable of measuring different types of electromagnetic radiation at a time: low-frequency electric and magnetic fields generated by AC power-fed electrical appliances as well as radio frequencies produced by smartphones, microwave ovens, and various devices using a wireless connection technology.
The model is very simple to operate and user-friendly. There is a convenient knob on the 100XE front panel for switching between different types of measurement. In addition, setting the knob to corresponding positions allows you to learn about the battery charge level as well as turn off the device when necessary.
Getting back to the Trifield 100XE EMF versatility, we should mention the two modes for measuring magnetic fields. The first mode provides measurements in the range from 0 to 100 milligauss, while the second one allows getting more accurate readings within the range of 0 - 3 milligauss due to a smaller increment. Thus, moving around the house, it'll be possible to measure electromagnetic fields and detect the exact location of dangerous sources of radiation such as PC monitors, TV sets, electric cookers and other smaller electrical appliances. To measure a radiation exposure level, all you need is to turn the knob to the specified position and see the readings on the scale. Based on the readings you can get actual volt/meter values by multiplying the scale readings by 10.
Microwave Radiation Measurement
The 100XE by Trifield has a dedicated mode for measuring high-frequency EMF. When switched to this mode, you can determine whether your microwave oven has its door tightly sealed or how strong is the radiation coming from your mobile phone.
Simplicity as an Advantage
As we mentioned earlier, the Trifield 100XE EMF Meter is a very simple to use tool with a wide measurement range. These features allow the model to compete with professional and more expensive models. The only drawback is its size. The device is difficult to put and carry in the pocket. As for the rest, the EMF meter is a nice solution capable of meeting most of your needs.
Tips on the Scale
Let's take a look at the scale of 100 XE. Under the digits, you can see a red dotted line which passes into a solid one. With that, if the needle reaches the solid line, it means you are in the area with the radiation level exceeding the accepted value. All you need to do then is to detect the source of EMF radiation.

A Small Device with Advanced Capabilities
Despite its small size, the Cornet ED78S EMF RF Meter has a really tremendous potential. The meter is designed for measuring both magnetic fields and microwave radiation. The model has three buttons for controlling all device functions and the digital display showing detailed measurement results. Choosing the microwave measurement, it's possible to determine whether the radiation generated by your cell phone, Wi-Fi router, digital TV, a gaming console is dangerous to your health. For figuring this out, just take the meter close to the device examined. Alternatively, you can take EMF measurements in other unexplored parts of your home or building. The Cornet ED78S is designed to provide two measurement modes with the first mode covering a wider range and the second more offering more precise readings (with an increment of 0.1 mG) in a narrower range. The fact that this EMF meter displays readings in uT and mG adds to its convenience.
A More Accurate and Convenient Measurement Display
The feature that makes the ED78S EMF meter an outstanding tool is its capability to group and display the measured values as a bar graph built using the last 32 values measured from the moment the device was turned on. This feature is very convenient for specific cases of measuring EMF fields generated by smart meters and similar devices.
However, the Cornet ED78S EMF RF model offers other important measurement-related features. For example, the "Hold" function allows saving the registered value on the meter screen. It may be particularly useful if you need to record and compare some of your readings.
Yet that's not all. In the lower part of the screen, just below the current measurements, you are shown the maximum value registered during the last measurement cycle. All these functions allow acquiring more accurate readings and carry out a more detailed EMF parameters analysis.
A Timely Warning
Another important benefit that the ED78S offers its users is the built-in speaker, which you can activate to hear a beeping signal notifying you of a dangerous EMF level detected. No doubt, this feature is as efficient as it is simple.
A Valuable Addition
The ED78S model by Cornet provides yet another way to determine whether you are in the area with a dangerously high exposure level of electromagnetic or microwave radiation. To the display right, there is a color LED scale, which shows the magnitude of the current radiation level. To get the full picture you can check the legend below the meter buttons specifying the radiation value ranges corresponding to each color on the vertical LED scale.

Takes You a Few Minutes to Master
If you think that an EMF meter is, in any case, a complicated device, you most likely have never dealt with the Lutron 822-A Digital EMF Meter. Actually, this is one of the simplest and most convenient appliances for measuring magnetic fields we have seen so far. There is only one switch needed to control the meter. If you want to turn the meter on or select a specific type of measurements (mG or microT) you just need to turn the switch to the required position. Despite its entry-level market positioning, this model provides comparatively accurate readings and offers a wide measurement range (from 0.1 to 199.9 mG).
In the most cases, measuring the actual level of EMF radiation in your house or any building requires you to simply take a walk through the house or the building with the Lutron 822-A. However, the unit is incapable of warning you, other than showing the readings, when you enter an area with dangerous magnetic field level, which is a downside. Indeed, this EMF meter comes with no warning lights or sound alert system so you need to monitor the readings carefully when taking measurements. By the way, the level of radiation in the 2.5 - 3 mG range is considered to be relatively safe for adults. For children, the upper limit is 2 mG.
Few Nuances
Although some users prefer to use analog devices, many of you will be glad to find out that the Lutron 822-A Digital EMF Meter is equipped with a digital display. The benefit is that you'll get accurate readings in no time. For its operation, the meter requires a single 9V battery.
Do You Need an EMF Meter?
Unfortunately, many people underestimate the importance of an EMF meter. However, this tool can really warn you about the danger of being exposed to high-density EMF radiation, protecting your health. The point is that high radiation levels can cause many serious diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer disease, heart disease, infertility. So, it's better to think twice before discarding the need of such device for your household.
An Easy to Handle Device
For better practicality, the meter is equipped with a special kickstand. Thanks to it, you can secure the meter in a vertical position! It's particularly useful when you need to move the device you'd like to test closer to the meter.

Ghosts Won't Hide From You
EMF meters are frequently used for various hobbies and the investigation of paranormal phenomena is one of them. According to some sources, ghosts and other paranormal entities are the sources of a powerful magnetic field. Many ghost hunters agree on the opinion that the KII EMF Meter is one of the best devices for their specific tasks. The model was designed to be maximally effective and convenient in darkness. It comes without no screen or a scale with a needle. The device shows the measurement results via the five LEDs. Green indicators inform that the EMF radiation level is within the normal limits while the red ones warn you that you might be not alone if you know what we mean. We'd like to write a few words on the power on/off button. Actually, it's wide enough to be kept pressed while you take your measurements with no discomfort. To turn the unit off, you just need to release the button. Another significant advantage of this EMF meter is that it is made of a sturdy plastic. Some users report that the KII case doesn't crack or split even if dropped on the ground.
For Measuring Magnetic Fields of up to 20 mG
The KII EMF Meter allows measuring magnetic fields in the range from 0 to 20 mG. Obviously, this is not the widest range seen in similar products, though, the meter easily detects exposure levels in the range from 5 - 10 mG.
Other Applications
Apart from ghost hunting, the meter can be particularly useful for domestic purposes. As you may already know, high EMF radiation levels affect our health, causing various serious diseases. Since all electrical devices, we use at home or indoors are potential sources of high-level electromagnetic radiation we need to know the level of threat they pose to us. Using the KII EMF Meter can prove helpful in case of detecting the sources of especially strong electromagnetic radiation, which can be harmful. As we mentioned above, the appliance doesn't offer a wide measuring range, however, it'll definitely warn you of the radiation exposure danger.
Efficient Battery Power Consumption
Another pro of that EMF Meter is its moderate battery power consumption and that it requires only one 9V battery for the operation. Typically, the device can run for about 3-6 months on a single battery charge. With more modest use, you'll need to replace the battery after about one year of operation.

What is an EMF Meter?
It goes without saying that it's important to systematically detect and locate different harmful factors in the area where you live or work as they can significantly deteriorate your health. EMF meters are designed for measuring the density of electromagnetic fields, which are present literally everywhere because of numerous equipment and devices that generate the fields. That makes such meters important instruments that help you stay aware of levels of EM radiation coming from electrical and electronic devices around you.
Actually, all electrical/electronic equipment, mobile devices are the source of electromagnetic radiation. With that, under certain conditions, EMF electromagnetic fields may have a negative impact on people's health. Therefore, it's crucial to know exposure levels coming from electronic equipment and protect yourself using an EMF detector as a radiation measurement tool. Additionally, this kind of devices is widely used for paranormal investigation, so, if you're planning to get engaged in this activity, an EMF meter is the right choice.
What Features to Compare
Type
In order to select the most suitable EMF Meter, you need to take some important parameters into account. First of all, decide on the type of the measuring tool you want to have. With analog (with a scale and a needle) and digital (with a display) EMF meters with different types of readings indication each of these types has its own advantages and drawbacks. While digital EMF devices are considered to take more accurate measurements the analog ones use to offer a shorter response time. The second crucial factor is the type of the field measured with your device: you need to find out whether you need a meter for detecting a magnetic field only or an electric, microwave radiation as well. Thus, if you're interested in having a handheld appliance for measuring all types of electromagnetic radiation, you should select a model which combines the corresponding capabilities.
Frequency Range
The frequency range plays an important role in measuring the density of electromagnetic fields as getting a complete picture of the EMF parameters in a particular place requires the tool to be capable of measuring in a wide frequency range. Additionally, we recommend paying attention to the supported range of field density values measured. Thus, if you're looking for a model for serious tasks, you should select the device with a wider measurement range.
Size
For some users, an EFM meter size matters a lot. In general, these portable devices rarely have large dimensions, however, if you're planning to carry one of these quite often you need to consider the size factor. As a rule, compact models are great solutions for the use in any place. For home and indoor applications, the size of the appliance turns out to be not that important.
FAQ:
Q: Can electromagnetic fields be harmful to people's health?
A: Electromagnetic radiation has an effect on human body, and it can really affect our health negatively, especially in the long term. To put it simply, EMFs have effects on human bodies at the cellular level. Electromagnetic radiation heats up body cells and tissues with the amount of affected cells and tissues determined by the level of the EMF people are exposed to. Some studies indicate a potential correlation between the level of radiation of cell phones and cancer risks. Moreover, new research demonstrates that electromagnetic fields can even cause oxidative stress to human body cells. This stress can damage all parts of our cells, including the genetic material contained within each cell (DNA), rendering the cells incapable of performing their functions in a proper way.
Q: How can I locate the source of electromagnetic fields if my EMF meter shows high readings?
A: In the most cases, the source of the field (electric, magnetic, or radio) is located in the direction of the strongest signal. You need to keep in mind that each circular line of a magnetic field around the conductor (wire) goes through the conductor axis and lies in the same plane with the conductor axis. Therefore, alongside the conductor, the field lines are vertical, while underneath the wire, they are horizontal. The right orientation of a 1-axis meter may cause the meter to point at the wire, or straight up and down, or horizontal — it actually depends on the orientation of the sensor inside the meter and the position of the meter relative to the wire. Readings of the 3-axis EMF meter don't depend on the meter orientation, so the device can be positioned in virtually any direction and still offer a correct location of the field source. To determine the exact location of the source, move the meter towards and away from a suspected source of EMF and check if the measured values increase or decrease correspondingly.
Q: Do Wi-Fi and Bluetooth networks pose risks to my health?
A: Generally, Wi-Fi signals are considered to be harmless and it's almost impossible for them to produce a harmful effect on humans. The density of the field generated by these wireless networks is known to drop quickly over short distances, so the radiation energy that reaches your body is extremely weak. At average operating distances, the intensity of Wi-Fi signals is so low that it's not worth worrying about. Moreover, Wi-Fi signals are non-thermal, therefore this type of wireless connection doesn't cause heating cells or tissues. You may also consider using an Ethernet cable to turn your wireless router off when it’s not needed. Moreover, try to place your router at the maximum distance from your desk or bed that still allows getting a reasonably strong signal while reducing the exposure level.
