Holiday Giveaway: Pong Case for Smartphones and iPads

Pong® Research Corporation (“Pong”) is an environmental health, safety, and wellness company that provides science-based solutions that protect users of cellular telephones from unnecessary exposure to electromagnetic radiation (“EMR”). EMR is a powerful form of microwave energy that phone antennae emit when they send data to, and receive it from, cell towers. Pong has created the world’s only device proven to dramatically reduce EMR exposure while protecting phone performance.

Most users of cell phones are unaware that between 48% and 68% of the radiation emitted by their phones is absorbed into their heads and bodies. The absorption of this “near field” energy not only disrupts the “far field” energy necessary for the phone to communicate with a cell tower, but also underlies increasing concerns among physicians, scientists, and lawmakers who believe this exposure to be a health hazard.  Laboratories certified by the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) have confirmed that Pong’s patented solution reduces the amount of EMR absorbed into the user’s head by between 60% and 95%, as measured on the world-standard Specific Absorption Rate or “SAR” scale.  Pong’s patented technology was developed by a team of experts out of Princeton, Harvard, UCLA and MIT with backgrounds in in plasma physics, nuclear and radiation science, cell biology, electronics engineering and behavioral science.

As a wife, mother and small business owner, I know I’ am constantly connected to my smartphones and other wireless devices.  However, that does not compare to the immense use of technological products from the ‘my-cellphone-is-connected-to-my-hip’ tweens, teens and young adults.  Due to the constant and intense nature of usage from the adolescent market, they need to be protected from high levels of radiation.

In May 2011, the World Health Organization (WHO) classified cell phone radiation as “possibly carcinogenic to humans.” The WHO based its findings on a large, international study coordinated by the International Agency for Research on Cancer that showed an increased risk of a certain type of brain tumor called glioma from regular use of cell phones – defined in the study as 1,640 hours or more of cumulative use. In consumer terms, that equates to slightly less than a half hour of daily use over a 10-year period.  Adding to the evidence is a separate 2011 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), which found that 50 minutes of cell phone use affected brain activity in the area nearest to the phone. Concerns about SAR have led the FCC to impose strict SAR limits on cell phones and tablets and mandate that Apple, Blackberry and other cellular device makers warn consumers not to put their cell phone directly against their head or body when using it. Unbeknownst to most consumers, these warnings can be found in all cellular device manuals. Suggestions on how to limit exposure to cell phone radiation, such as texting, using the speaker, or turning the cell phone off when not in use, are not always possible or practical. In addition, the FCC warns against the use of products that claim to shield or block cell phone radiation because they can actually increase the user’s radiation exposure. Making matters worse, shields can also negatively impact a device’s performance.

Pong cases easy to put on and take off and have been designed and tested to work anywhere in the world (Pong cases are currently in use in 50 countries).  Pong cases are the only solution on the market that has been proven to protect consumers from unnecessary exposure to device radiation while also protecting a device’s performance.
