Well thank God FPL came and reinstalled our old analog meter. They put a smart meter on while we were away on vacation and we came home to: no phone, no TV, no home alarm system, dead/dying/agressive bees, no birds on that side of the house (or weeds either!) and our normally quiet neighbor dogs – barking incessantly day and night. I won’t even go into the heart palpitations at night (meter is on our bedroom wall) and the terrible quality of sleep. The meter was taken off yesterday and it’s been peacefully quiet again. A switch was literally turned off and not a peep out of the dogs, the birds are back, no bees bombing my head or dying on the ground (we are organic in every way and it is disturbing to think a utility co. can pollute your and your neighbors living space). The only lingering problem is trying to troubleshoot the phone line – of course it’s our responsibility to fix, even though we didn’t break it. Any helpful tips would be appreciated. The line outside is good but all interior phone lines show a “short” on the voltmeter. FPL still plans on reinstalling this thing in the next few years and I’m wondering how to stop this??? They’re not even UL approved? Pingback: Opt out? | EMF Safety Network Pingback: CA PUC – “Utility Lapdog” – Proposes Extortionate Opt Out Fees | Stop Smart Meters! MACK says: December 6, 2011 at 10:01 am Florida here. We have a solar pool heater, and next installed a solar hot water heater. We were thrilled to see our FP&L bill drop substantially after installing the solar water heater. THEN THEY INSTALLED THE SMART METER. Now our elec bills are even higher than they were BEFORE we changed the pool and hot water over to solar, and we are not big AC users. We use ceiling fans and even when we use the AC, we keep it set to 78 degrees. I know this “smart meter” is inflating my bill but how can we prove it? How can we fight it? And by the way, we were never offered the option to opt-out. If that had been a viable option, there should be some penalty to FPL for deliberately notbtelling people they had that option! admin says: December 6, 2011 at 10:15 am You can find ideas on how to fight this here: http://emfsafetynetwork.org/?page_id=649 I believe the steps for Floirda will be similar to CA.

These meters are just the beginning of a diabolical plan to exterminate 90% of the population, take over our land, put us in “Sustainable Communities”, so the elite people in the world can live a more prosperous, healthy lifestyle. It is real, it’s here now and we all must educate ourselves about it. There is hope for us, if we ban together & fight it. I’m not a crazy person………I’m as normal as anyone. Find out for yourself, PLEASE! J Sullivan says: January 5, 2012 at 7:16 pm Why am I paying for this new meter? I didn’t buy it!! I didn’t authorize it!!! I want My old meter back. You know why!!!

JO says: January 22, 2012 at 9:55 am I have many physical symptoms I have never had before the Smart meter was installed, such as being dizzy, tingling in arms&legs, feel way off balance when walking, pressure in my head, agitated, feel like I am in a fog, do no sleep well, etc. Jo Greg says: January 28, 2012 at 10:31 am I set out on my own private war against the power company. Nothing illegal, but how to best hurt them in my own way was to hit them in the wallet. So with a smaller (18 cu. ft. energy star) very low useage refrigerator, a 50 watt 23 inch flatscreen TV ($250), a 10 watt DVD player ($50) (which is what the TV is only used for watching a movie), and some 7 watt L.E.D. standard screw in light bulbs ($11) used sparingly, I end up using less than a kilowatt a day. The water heater (propane), freestanding fireplace (propane) heats this smaller house (1300 square feet), and a propane (only) kitchen range do not tap into the electricity. We are down to less that 60 KwH per month. (60 KwH X .122 cents per KwH = $7.32 monthly electric bills) I have a small solar panel ($50) and a 12 V deep cycle boat battery that I use to recharge this laptop. The sewing machine was converted to treadle 45 years ago, the coffee pot is French press ($40) using only boiling water from the propane range. The floors are wood so I use a dust mop. I have monitored our electric useage daily for the last 2 years since the SM was installed. We use an Amish type of hand clothes washer and a clothes line to dry the wash. There are many things we have learned to “do without” and have managed just fine. Anything with a plug on the end of a cord (other than the items mentioned above) was donated or given away. The air conditioner was turned off at the circuit breaker and I had PG&E come get their little computer off of it. In the summer here in the Central valley of CA we super insulated the attic (39 R) of the house and garage, do the “window thing” – open in early morning and close before it warms up and close the drapes on the sunny sides of the house, and use the ceiling fan in whatever room we are in. I have a Coleman camping stovetop oven ($39) that sits on a burner and bake in it rather than fire up the large oven. So here is a list of what we get along just fine without: vacuum cleaner, electric coffee pot, hair dryer, clothes dryer, electric washer, freezer in the garage – gave it away, giant TV – that went too, small kitchen appliances, and anything else that plugs in. The work shop is mostly non-electric tools, hand saws, hand drill, brace and bit, breast drill – a large hand drill, and the usual squares, planes, levels, hammers, pullers, etc. Most of our hand tools were found at yard sales or cast offs from others who no longer use hand tools. Just to show that we have gotten PG&E’s attention we have received 3 letters from them charting our electric useage and asking if “they are comparing us correnctly.” The next step now that our electric useage is minimal was to go offgrid solar. Well it is up and running and we have an appointment next week for them to come and collecct the SM! Even without going off grid, it felt great just to cut the useage down to the absolute minimun. I installed some foil behind a large picture and hung it over the inside wall where the SM was hung on the outside of the house and cut down the radiation into the house. It can be tested inexpensively (without a testing type of meter) with a battery powered portable radio. Just listen to the interference static and for a real eyeopener try running the radio outside the SM! Yikes! Hope this helps. admin says: January 28, 2012 at 10:53 am Thanks so much for sharing your story- very inspiring. We also reduced our electric usage several years ago, and keep most of the circuit breakers off to the home, to reduce the EMF from indoor wiring. I also have lived without electricity for months and know its very doable. If you have resources, for alternative appliances, like the Amish clothes washer, please post!
