I would advise looking up the bylaws of your assn. HOA’s etc. are pretty much always a bad idea, but you still have rights. Look up what easement they are using to justify invading your house. Write them a certified letter and refuse to allow the meter inside. If it is digital and it is transmitting it is a smart meter and you should refuse it.

They say it is not a smart meter. It is a transmitter that emits data to a bank of smart meters. So does this “transmitter” emit enough EMFs to affect me? I don’t like the fact that it is going to be INSIDE my unit. I am going to put an EMF shield over the water meter, but I don’t think they should be allowed INSIDE my unit to put such a meter whether it’s just a transmitter or actually a smart meter. Is the transmitter and the smart meter one in the same? And what can I do to keep them from putting it inside? Demand they put it outside; deny them entrance; hire a lawyer? Suggestions?

The MI Public Service Commission approved several different user preferences but the “default” rate if you don’t make the choice is (of course) much higher. When I called to complain about not being able to “choose” my rate a supervisor called back within 3 minutes requesting a “RECALIBRATION” of my smart meter. I am concerned that they will harm my usage in some way because I made a complaint. Is anyone aware that choosing a certain time of day rate could require RECALIBRATION? Isn’t the smart meter (don’t currently know the type) ALREADY sending this information to the Utility at least every 15 minutes? I am considering blocking them from the building where I rent. They have “co-located” 12 smart meters in our basement. Renters have little to no power if owners approve of smart meters. I will call and try to “cancel” the appt. they demanded. Anyone ever hear of this happening? Of course I wish I could get them ALL removed.

You couldn’t pay me any dollar amount to have a smart meter on my home.

Yes, as all of the electricity, entering your home, must pass through the meter. Example: Try comparing electricity to water and the smart meter is the toilet located in front end of the water coming into your home. Your home is filled with electric fields as it radiates from the wiring located in the walls, ceiling, and sometimes floors. Just 6 volts per meter of a dirty electric field is equal to 100,000 micro watts per square meter.

Pulsed dirty electricity is far more powerful than what the meter emits wirelessly.

Interesting and thank you for pointing it out Paul. Sometimes I seriously wonder why are so many people opposed to questioning smart meters – why they are pushing for them? and trying to discredit those that are calling out a potential seriously deleterious human and animal health warnings? who and why be on the side of death to the general public?

watch it, whose side are you on anyway? those that want to oppose it for health reasons, whats your goal in trying to prevent it anyway – can you not just agree to disagree without insulting? I think its possible. Try again.
