Did you know people aren't suppose to wear those so called health magnetic jewelry in a tanning bed? The makers of the jewelry claim the magnets are much to strong in the jewelry to place them in a tanning bed. Again this information just comes from the manufacturer. :)

Rep Power: 0 | Re: Pace maker Mag and choke ballasts operate at 60 Hz, electronic ballasts operate at 20K-40KHz, microwave ovens operate in the Gigahertz range. This is the frequency range that pacemakers are affected. there is nothing special in a bed that is not in every other appliance. No different then the ceiling lamps. All appliances incorporate some sort of transformers that operate at line frequency and have no effect on pacemakers. 60Hz is all around us, free in the air, if it were a problem then pacemakers wouldn't work in the first place. |
