I'm thinking about buying a house that's a little over 200m away from some powerlines (transmission towers, not the normal timber ones in the front of the street).
I'm convinced from what I've read that links to cancer risks are either negligible at this distance or not valid.
I'd like to know if there are other things to consider if you live near them. Noises, pollution, interference, etc
Anyone live(d) near them have any input?
Edit: Just want to make it more clear - I'm interested in annoyances, not cancer risks
For those who are interested and/or for future reference, I took a reading from the street, 2 houses closer to the transmission towers. It fluctuated between 0.19 and 0.22 milligauss, which is very safe.
A reading from my lounge room where I currently live, with my phone in hand and TV on was between 0.01 and 0.06.
Reading from near my WiFi router, with phone in hand was between 0.06 and 0.13
BATMANBEER:What a load of rubbish! Not the facts, just the conclusion you make!
What about this. I knew a guy who lived near power lines. He drove a motor like and was killed within 3 months of living there. CONCLUSION: Don’t ride a motor bike if you live near power lines, it’s dangerous -yeah, right!
