Given recent reports about possible health issues with cellular phones, are there similar concerns with Bluetooth technology?
Some studies have indicated increased health risk from prolonged exposure to RF radiation, such as might result from the use of cellular phones. Although many may not consider the overall body of available evidence to be conclusive, the main point to keep in mind about Bluetooth technology is that it operates at a significantly lower power output level than do typical cellular phones. Bluetooth transmissions are typically at least an order of magnitude lower in power output than cellular radio transmissions. Of course, medical and radio experts (of which I am neither) are best positioned to discuss details on this subject, but many people feel that by the very nature of its low-power transmissions, Bluetooth technology has different characteristics than cellular radio technology and intuitively might seem to be of less concern.
