WaveShield 2000 Gold cellular protection system features a "pure-gold" design, about the size of a penny that adheres to the ear piece of any cellular phone. The WaveShield GOLD "upscale" design presents itself as elegantly as a designer watch or executive pen & pencil set. The WaveShield Gold blocks up to 99% of radiation, more than any other shield. The vast majority of electromagnetic radiation emitted by cellular and cordless phones comes from the antenna and parts of the phone other than the ear piece. Wave shield products have no effect on this electromagnetic energy. They may reduce the strength of electromagnetic-field emissions from cell phone ear pieces by as much as 99% depending on the cell phone model, without affecting the quality of the transmission.
