The new Electromagnetic Meter EM2
Heliognosis developed the first inexpensive omni-directional broadband
monitor for measuring all sources of electromagnetic radiation up to
microwaves named the emm. This compact device enabled users concerned
about
potential health risks
to locate areas of exposure. Following the success of the emm
initiative, Heliognosis has now released the EM2. The EM2 has several
improvements over the original emm including improved accuracy,
frequency response and ruggedness. The new design includes a fast
response analog display for detecting pulsed transmissions from digital
equipment such as wifi, cell networks and smart meters. The included
rubber boot is comfortable to hold and elegant while providing
protection from bumps and falls. The display employs a unique
logarithmic scale to capture both very weak and very strong signals
without the need to switch ranges. The color coded scale helps to
identify safe from dangerous conditions.
EM2 bridges the gap between cheap limited response monitors and full spectrum units. No bigger than a mobile phone,
EM2
detects all electromagnetic emitters from ELF (extremely low
frequencies) up to microwaves. This includes virtually all sources of
electromagnetic radiation like:
|
- WIFI, cell and mobile phones
- radio and television broadcast towers
- AC power lines, smart meters
- microwave ovens
- amateur and CB radio
- military, aircraft and police band radio
- high-efficiency fluorescent tubes

Use the Heliognosis
EM2 to identify
hotspots in your local environment. It is ideal for determining safer
distances from electromagnetic sources and locating hidden
transmitters. For more information Heliognosis Experimental Report 6:

Using EM2
Our small, sensitive circuit detects the electric field component of
the electromagnetic wave and converts it into a visually diplayed
signal. Operation is simple - extend the antenna and power on the unit.
After activating the power switch, the
EM2
will begin displaying the measured electromagnetic field strength. Hold
the unit in front of you while approaching potential sources of
electromagnetic radiation.The readings will increase as you get closer
to the source. Metal objects and buildings will block the radiation.
You can use this property to help locate powerful sources located at a
distance. If you pass in front of a building and the readings drop, it
is likely that the source is behind the building. Driving with the
meter on the dashboard or suspended from the rear view meter is an
excellent way to survey sources in your neighborhood.
