RF Safe Approved: Honest Protection & A Demand for Updated Guidelines
When It Comes to EMF Safety, Integrity and Education Matter More Than Marketing Gimmicks
What Makes RF Safe Approved Cases Truly Different?
We never lie or mislead consumers. We educate them. Our first promise is to ensure our case won’t increase
radiation levels. Second, where we do place shielding—like on the front flap—we cover the entire flap.
We don’t leave a hole where the speaker is because we use a mesh that allows you to hear just fine.
Meanwhile, other companies cut out holes and add detachable components or advanced wallet features, which
often do more harm than good.
RF Safe Approved cases don’t distract from the real issue: modern wireless devices emit EMFs that are
dangerous. Non-thermal risks aren’t addressed by current regulatory standards. That’s why it’s important
to note that no phone case will make you fully safe until people start speaking out against outdated FCC
guidelines and the “regulatory capture” that’s burying research and public awareness of these issues.
The Truth About So-Called “Anti-Radiation” Cases
Many cases on the market focus on flashy marketing instead of sound engineering. Some have metal loops,
magnets, or excessive wallet features, all of which can obstruct the phone’s antenna. This causes the
device to ramp up its power output, ironically increasing exposure instead of reducing it.
In contrast, we design our RF Safe Approved cases to avoid these pitfalls, following open-source design
principles that respect the laws of physics. This approach ensures that the user’s phone doesn’t escalate
radiation due to bad case design.
Why Regulatory Change Matters More Than Any Single Case
Even the safest product and the best usage habits won’t solve the EMF problem on their own if the
underlying guidelines remain outdated. We must address:
-
Outdated FCC Guidelines: Current standards focus on thermal effects,
ignoring the non-thermal biological risks identified by many modern studies. -
Regulatory Capture: The suppression of research and public awareness
benefits huge telecom industries, hindering meaningful reforms. -
Section 704 of the 1996 Telecom Act: This clause unconstitutionally strips
local communities of the right to reject or regulate cell towers based on health concerns,
limiting grassroots control over tower placements.
This bigger-picture fight must be at the forefront if we truly want to protect ourselves and future
generations from unchecked wireless radiation.
The Real Problem: Non-Thermal Risks & Suppressed Research
Decades of data hint that non-thermal effects—those that don’t cause obvious heating—are at the root of
many EMF health concerns. Yet these are precisely the impacts that our current standards refuse to
acknowledge. Consequently, crucial research remains buried, and the public remains unaware. Until we
demand better, phone cases—even ours—can only do so much.
A Call to Action: Speak Up, Demand Change
RF Safe Approved cases are part of the solution, but not the entire solution. Proper usage, such as
keeping the phone away from your body, using speakerphone, and turning off wireless features whenever
possible, all help reduce risk. However, none of these protective steps will achieve real safety unless
customers also raise their voices:
-
Demand Updated Regulations: Urge the FCC and lawmakers to revise the
guidelines to account for non-thermal effects. -
Reject Flawed Designs: Avoid cases with holes near the speaker or with
detachable wallet elements that ramp up phone output. -
Exercise Local Rights: Challenge Section 704 of the 1996 Telecom Act so
communities can decide tower placements based on health risks.
Until these broader reforms take place, phone cases can only mitigate part of the problem. The real
battle is ensuring that science isn’t suppressed and that regulatory bodies act in the public’s best
interest.
By choosing an RF Safe Approved case, you’re investing in a product that prioritizes physics and
honesty over marketing gimmicks. And by speaking out, you’re ensuring that future generations can
enjoy wireless technology without compromising their well-being.
