The Radiation Lie: Why Your Phone Case Isn’t Enough and What You Must Do Now * RF SAFE® Radio Frequency Safe

They told me the world wasn’t ready for the truth.

But when my daughter, Angel Leigh Coates, passed away in 1995 from a rare neural tube disorder called anencephaly, I made a promise: if I ever discovered what took her from me, I’d fight it for the rest of my life. By 1997, that answer was painfully clear—research linked electromagnetic radiation (EMR) to birth defects and developmental disorders. A year later, I founded RF Safe to protect families from facing what mine did.

Today, after dedicating more than 25 years of my life to RF radiation safety, the problem has only grown more urgent. My seven-year-old daughter Melanie sits just 465 feet from a cell tower every school day. That’s barely a third of the safe distance recommended by scientists in the BioInitiative Report. And due to outdated, industry-backed laws like Section 704 of the Telecommunications Act, I—and millions of parents like me—have no legal way to protest.

This isn’t just my story. This is every parent’s story.

You’ve Been Told Radiation “Protection” Comes in a Case—It’s Time You Know the Truth

Let’s get real: if your phone case claims to block “99% of radiation,” you’ve been misled. The bitter truth is that no phone case alone can fully shield you from radiation when you’re still using microwave signals—Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and cellular networks.

Here’s why:

Metal loops, magnetic plates, and open speaker holes actually increase your radiation exposure.
Cases that interfere with your phone’s antenna force it to boost power output, creating higher radiation levels.

In short, those products aren’t protecting you—they’re placing you at greater risk. And every dollar you spend on these fake solutions delays real progress, supporting influencers and companies who profit from confusion rather than safety.

The Real Solution is Li-Fi: A Future Without Microwaves

The only path to genuinely safer wireless communication is to eliminate microwave exposure completely. The technology exists: it’s called Li-Fi (Light Fidelity), and it uses light waves instead of harmful microwaves to transmit data.

I didn’t just dream about this—I patented it.

My patent (US11700058B2) for the world’s most advanced Li-Fi technology not only eliminates microwave radiation exposure but also sterilizes air and surfaces with safe Far-UVC light. Imagine a communication network that protects you from germs and radiation simultaneously—that’s the innovation waiting on your support.

Four Steps We Must Take Together to Make Li-Fi a Reality

Reject Fake Solutions:
Throw away any “anti-radiation” phone case that claims unrealistic protection levels and replaces them with products proven to reduce exposure without dangerous design flaws—like the QuantaCase.
Educate Yourself with Real Science:
RF Safe hosts the largest collection of EMF health research, over 4,000 peer-reviewed studies. See the facts yourself in our RF Safe Research Viewer and share them widely.

Demand Legislative Change:
Push to repeal Section 704 of the 1996 Telecommunications Act. Without this, your voice on local tower placements remains silenced by unconstitutional laws designed for telecom profit, not public safety.
Advocate for Li-Fi Compatibility:
Demand Li-Fi implementation in homes, schools, and workplaces. Advocate for manufacturers to include Li-Fi compatibility in all wireless devices. The technology exists—it’s your support that’s needed now.

Why Now? Because This Isn’t Just My Fight—It’s Yours, Too

I’m getting older, and this battle hasn’t gotten any easier. But every child sitting near a cell tower—every child forced to use microwave-based devices—is why this fight continues.

If you’re buying ineffective anti-radiation products promoted by influencers instead of advocating for Li-Fi, you’re unintentionally part of the problem. But you don’t have to be.

Together, we can:
