RF Studies Reporting Biological Effects and Adverse Health Effects for Exposures Similar to Wireless Devices (iPads and WI-FI)
All of the studies expressed in W/kg above (SAR) are reporting bioeffects or adverse health effects at levels below the iPad's 0.99 watt/kilogram SAR level. All of the studies expressed in power density (uW/cm2) report effects at lower levels than the iPad's emission levels. Read the iPad Users Guide in full. It reports: "Discontinue+use+of+iPad+and+consult+a+physician if+you+experience+headaches,+blackouts,+seizures,+ convulsion,+eye+or+muscle+twitching,+loss+of+awareness,+ involuntary+movement,+or+disorientation.++To+reduce+risk+ of+headaches,+blackouts,+seizures,+and+eyestrain,+avoid+prolonged+use,+ hold+iPad+some+distance+from+your+eyes, use+iPad+in+a+well@lit+room,+and+take+frequent+breaks."+
