I lived my whole life asking one question: Why do eight-year-olds get kidney cancer?
I grew up on a military base, right next to powerful radar installations. Microwave radiation was in the air 24/7 from the day I was born. That was my “normal.” At age eight they took out my kidney.
Then in 1995 I lost my daughter to a catastrophic neural tube defect.
Two years later, in 1997, the Farrell study came out — peer-reviewed research showing that electromagnetic fields caused neural tube abnormalities in chicken embryos at rates 3–4 times higher than controls (6.8% malformed vs 1.8% in unexposed). Same class of birth defect that took my little girl.
That was the moment the dots connected. My daughter was the canary in the coal mine. To a degree, so was I.
I founded RF Safe in 1998 with one mission only: tell the unfiltered truth about microwave exposure so other parents don’t have to bury their children or watch them fight cancer before they’re old enough to drive.
RF Safe has never had an email address, never taken a single dime in profit, and never will. My phone number (727-610-1188) is right on the front page because I want every scared parent to be able to reach me directly — day or night.
The TruthCase exists on RF Safe for one reason only It is the cleanest, most honest physical demonstration of the First Principles I laid out in 1998. Those principles were never about copying a 1998 blueprint — they were about obeying physics no matter how phone designs evolve.
First Principles of Responsible RF Case Design (Established 1998 — Timeless)
- Keep the phone at its absolute lowest possible output power — This is Principle #1. Nothing in the case may detune antennas or obstruct signals in any way that forces the phone to “shout harder” and increase radiation.
- Never create unpredictable radiation patterns — No metal loops, decorative trim, carrying straps, clasps, or any extra conductive pieces near antenna bands.
- Continuous, complete shielding between you and the phone — A solid piece of shielding material with no big holes or gaps. (That’s why you can see the shielding through our speaker area — it uses tiny conductive mesh so audio passes but protection stays continuous.)
- Shield the person, not the phone — Directional shielding belongs only in the front flap/cover, placed between your head/body and the device during calls and carrying.
- No detachable designs — Detachable wallets, magnetic plates, or steel mounts sandwich the phone and block antennas, violating Principle #1.
- Ultra-thin and antenna-aware — The case must work with the phone’s power-management system, not against it, so the radio stays efficient.
- Make safer habits obvious and automatic — The design itself trains correct use (flap closed on calls, fold behind for texting, shield toward body in pocket).
- Open-source and educational — These principles have been public since 1998 so anyone can understand, test, and demand better from the entire industry.
Every single “red flag” RF Safe has warned about for 28 years comes directly from violating one or more of these principles. That’s why most “anti-radiation” cases on the market today are worse than useless — they can actually make exposure worse.
RF Safe does not manufacture or sell the TruthCase. Quanta X Technologies is the only manufacturer that has stayed 100% faithful to these First Principles for modern phones. I talk about it here purely as a learning tool you can hold in your hands to instantly see and feel the difference between truth and marketing hype.
Pick one up if you want the physical proof. But the real point is bigger:
Our children are being exposed to microwave radiation every single day while regulators and voices like Frank de Vocht at SSM and ICNIRP keep downplaying the NTP, Ramazzini, and oxidative stress evidence.
Enough.
Call or text me at 727-610-1188. I answer personally. Contact your representatives and demand the U.S. treat ICNIRP and foreign radiation authorities the same way we treated the WHO. Demand independent reviews of the 1996 FCC limits. Get enraged. Get loud. Protect the next generation.
The First Principles haven’t changed since 1998. It’s time for public policy to catch up.
