What device can produce magnetic fields Iooking to buy

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the search for devices that can produce electromagnetic fields, with a focus on controlling the frequency emitted for experimental purposes. Participants express interest in experimenting with the effects of these fields on water and the human body.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Debate/contested
  • Experimental/applied

Main Points Raised

  • One participant seeks a device to produce electromagnetic fields and control the frequency for experimentation.
  • Another participant suggests that a two-way radio might meet the description of the desired device.
  • There is interest in experimenting with frequencies ranging from tens to hundreds of Hertz.
  • Concerns are raised about the safety and ethical implications of experimenting on humans with electromagnetic fields.
  • One participant clarifies that they intend to experiment only on themselves, not on others.
  • Links to resources on the health effects of electromagnetic fields are provided for reference.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express differing views on the safety and ethics of conducting experiments involving electromagnetic fields on humans, with some questioning the qualifications and safety measures of the original poster.

Contextual Notes

There are unresolved concerns regarding the ethical implications of self-experimentation and the necessity of approval from an ethics board for such activities.

Welcome to PF!

Could you be more specific about what you are trying to do? Because it just sounds to me like a two-way radio meets that description.
 
Im trying to do experiments like putting x amount of hertz to water or what happens wen the human body is exposed to an electromagnetic field that is at a constant frequency of x hertz etc
 
Good enough?

What sort of frequencies are you looking for? 10's of Hz, 1000's (kHz), millions (MHz)?

Probably 10s-400s give or take not picky just looking for something to get things kicked off

So you want to experiment on humans by irradiating them with EM fields ?
What professional qualifications do you have that make you think you can do this safely ?
Have you got millions of $$ of public liability insurance for when they sue you for injury to their health ?

No one said it’d be on other humans other than myself

well you didn't make that point clear ! it pays to be clear

my first 2 questions still stand regardless of if it is just you or others

Thread closed pending moderation.

Edit: No experimentation on humans should be done on humans (including oneself) without the approval of an ethics board. The thread will remain closed.
