1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,500
I've been getting a lot of headaches lately and the problem is pretty obvious

2
00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:13,019
if you think about it it's the pesky 5G rays that the government is beaming into

3
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:14,820
my brain but it's okay because I have a

4
00:00:13,019 --> 00:00:20,880
plan to protect myself from all the electro smog in my house using this and

5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:26,160
this and this no I'm just kidding you guys that would

6
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:33,059
look ridiculous so instead I've picked up a bottle of warmore rfie50 a paint

7
00:00:29,939 --> 00:00:35,780
that when applied correctly claims to

8
00:00:33,059 --> 00:00:41,640
Shield you from high and low frequency electromagnetic fields

9
00:00:37,739 --> 00:00:42,840
how you might ask well not by teasing

10
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:47,100
the folks who believe their Wi-Fi routers causing sleepless nights and

11
00:00:44,700 --> 00:00:52,739
cancerous growths it probably has more to do with the high graphite content of

12
00:00:49,860 --> 00:00:57,600
this black base coat and if this actually works there are legitimate

13
00:00:54,719 --> 00:01:02,879
purposes for a product like this if blocking unauthorized access to a baby

14
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:07,500
monitor or thwarting keyless car theft could be as simple as a couple coats of

15
00:01:05,100 --> 00:01:12,360
paint they might not only be able to justify the existence of this product

16
00:01:09,180 --> 00:01:14,460
but even its outlandish price so we

17
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:20,700
decided that regardless of our own beliefs about the supposed dangers of 5G

18
00:01:17,460 --> 00:01:22,380
we owe it to the tech community and uh

19
00:01:20,700 --> 00:01:27,420
Raymond EMC whose chamber we haven't really used for anything yet to find out

20
00:01:24,659 --> 00:01:35,400
if this stuff is snake oil or if it actually works works like this Segway to

21
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:38,880
our sponsor AMD the new Radeon RX 7700

22
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:42,540
XT and 7800 XT are here with up to 16

23
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:44,939
gigs of gddr6 memory and AMD's fsr3 for

24
00:01:42,540 --> 00:01:49,979
Sharp visuals and high frame rates these graphics cards dare to ask what if game

25
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:55,439
but more good learn more at the link down below according to the manufacturer

26
00:01:52,680 --> 00:02:01,500
this stuff can lower RF Noise by anywhere from 51 to 78 decibels

27
00:01:59,220 --> 00:02:06,719
depending on the frequency with just three layers of paint now obviously we

28
00:02:04,979 --> 00:02:12,180
can't just take their word for it we're gonna have to try it which for a normal

29
00:02:09,780 --> 00:02:18,660
person would be a relatively easy task just turn off your Wi-Fi use a handy

30
00:02:15,660 --> 00:02:20,220
dandy EMF meter like this 48846 from

31
00:02:18,660 --> 00:02:24,780
xtec to take a reading of the background RF radiation in your space apply paint

32
00:02:22,379 --> 00:02:28,379
all around you and then measure the difference

33
00:02:25,620 --> 00:02:34,020
for us though it's not so simple because this place is quite literally radio

34
00:02:30,900 --> 00:02:35,459
frequency hell we've got multiple high

35
00:02:34,020 --> 00:02:40,620
performance wireless access points we've got our rooftop 60 gigahertz wireless link to the other building our cell

36
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:46,379
repeater and our wireless microphones and production gear not to mention the

37
00:02:43,739 --> 00:02:50,640
hundreds of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth enabled devices all of which are competing for

38
00:02:48,599 --> 00:02:55,920
wireless Spectrum in this big bouncy concrete box that we call the lab allow

39
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:58,280
me to demonstrate oh man Jake geez you

40
00:02:55,920 --> 00:03:02,340
got 10 you've got 10 of them right here oh my good 20. it's got a wireless

41
00:03:00,660 --> 00:03:07,379
antenna right there it's going to sizzle your nipples

42
00:03:05,940 --> 00:03:09,800
Adam's very busy we don't want to disrupt him

43
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:18,780
oh yeah these are very no no you're good you're good very low very low RF that's

44
00:03:15,180 --> 00:03:21,720
great very safe oh no James has got

45
00:03:18,780 --> 00:03:26,159
wireless headphones oh they're wired I mean that explains

46
00:03:24,780 --> 00:03:32,040
why they're basically on par with the background reading then I see trouble

47
00:03:29,340 --> 00:03:35,519
I can't read it from here 30 not 40 wow actually it does go up

48
00:03:34,140 --> 00:03:40,440
when you get closer to the AP I mean that makes sense 55. what 55. there you

49
00:03:38,700 --> 00:03:46,019
go oh okay here you go how high can we get it eight eighty-five wow dangerous

50
00:03:43,980 --> 00:03:50,519
what pocket do you keep your phone in it's on the desk oh okay well pile of

51
00:03:48,959 --> 00:03:53,299
readings are really low here nobody texts me anyway

52
00:03:53,420 --> 00:04:00,239
this is low literally nobody's actually using these servers hey social team you

53
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:04,739
guys are using the servers right yeah excuse me sorry I just need to yeah

54
00:04:02,940 --> 00:04:12,480
even farther back yeah okay all right thank you thank you acrylic side panels

55
00:04:07,620 --> 00:04:15,360
beautiful or deadly yeah I think you're

56
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:19,739
gonna be okay okay all naming aside the inconsistency of our Baseline readings

57
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:23,040
is a significant problem if we're trying to figure out if the paint works even

58
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:29,520
while I'm standing here you're watching it fluctuate as much as three to five

59
00:04:25,860 --> 00:04:31,680
volts per meter and moving just a foot

60
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:38,000
drops it by another three thankfully we have a solution our EMC

61
00:04:35,220 --> 00:04:43,080
chamber in here we not only have extremely low background noises a very

62
00:04:40,620 --> 00:04:46,740
controlled environment it's one and a half volts per meter and that's with the

63
00:04:45,060 --> 00:04:53,040
camera right there it's basically zero without it but we also have the ability

64
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:55,800
to set up a completely self-contained 5G

65
00:04:53,040 --> 00:05:02,160
Network which will allow us to use not Wi-Fi but harmful 5G to test out a

66
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:06,660
variety of different shielding Solutions let's start with one of the more

67
00:05:03,840 --> 00:05:12,300
obviously predatory ones like this hat from EMR shielding Solutions it's 70 US

68
00:05:10,199 --> 00:05:18,120
Dollars and its claim to fame is that aside from looking absolutely fabulous

69
00:05:14,759 --> 00:05:20,100
it is lined with 10 copper slash silver

70
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:24,720
which gives them the difference in cost I wouldn't mind knowing which one is

71
00:05:21,479 --> 00:05:26,699
which but oh well for our test we've got

72
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:32,220
our 5G Network enabled which you can actually see right here we have a 5G

73
00:05:29,699 --> 00:05:36,660
compatible phone and we have a screen recording running that should allow us

74
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:40,320
to put it under the hat and see if it works

75
00:05:38,220 --> 00:05:44,220
not gonna lie I played around with this a little bit before we rolled the camera

76
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:49,199
and we have a bit of an issue every time we've ever done this kind of thing in

77
00:05:45,419 --> 00:05:52,199
the past we've used Wi-Fi which is a lot

78
00:05:49,199 --> 00:05:55,259
easier to block than a um

79
00:05:52,199 --> 00:05:57,419
cellular signal because of the different

80
00:05:55,259 --> 00:06:00,780
bends and the weights uh so this doesn't do anything but I was actually expecting

81
00:05:59,699 --> 00:06:06,979
it to do something pinned at 80 is that what you

82
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,979
were expecting basically okay cool

83
00:06:07,139 --> 00:06:15,539
let's move on then next up is this 5G

84
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:19,580
blocking fabric from atmosure

85
00:06:15,539 --> 00:06:19,580
do I look swindler enough right now

86
00:06:21,840 --> 00:06:27,060
here's the transmitter ah hey

87
00:06:24,860 --> 00:06:31,080
depending which of the marketing brochures you pick up these guys

88
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:34,500
oscillate between totally reasonable with claims like sewing their fabric

89
00:06:33,300 --> 00:06:39,720
into your pockets could help block credit card skimming all the way to move

90
00:06:37,500 --> 00:06:44,120
to a smaller town and rural area where 5G rollouts may not happen anytime soon

91
00:06:44,280 --> 00:06:49,100
let's give it a shot 5G

92
00:06:52,020 --> 00:06:59,340
now you don't it's like 10 seconds to refresh the

93
00:06:57,180 --> 00:07:04,740
reading one second boom whoa whoa

94
00:07:01,860 --> 00:07:09,000
all right it works be nice if you could manually refresh it

95
00:07:06,780 --> 00:07:11,039
like the the phone thinks it has 5G already yeah

96
00:07:10,319 --> 00:07:18,600
um it broke it I don't know how do you do it Linus you didn't even drop it I did

97
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:22,020
nothing I just I break things it's not my fault I swear to you okay so

98
00:07:20,759 --> 00:07:26,300
I should try this again because maybe something bad happened I minus 83

99
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:33,060
decibels no you don't oh

100
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:35,520
I know what it is it's capacitive

101
00:07:33,060 --> 00:07:38,580
dang it now for my next trick we're using a different interface because it

102
00:07:36,900 --> 00:07:44,660
refreshes a little bit faster but I'm going to make this 5G signal at minus 84

103
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,660
decibels disappear

104
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:51,139
oh yeah look at this earlier just come in here

105
00:07:49,979 --> 00:07:57,780
with it I can totally breathe

106
00:07:53,819 --> 00:07:59,580
mine is 99 dang this stuff kind of does

107
00:07:57,780 --> 00:08:05,400
something let's move on to our paint let's take a closer look at this boy

108
00:08:01,319 --> 00:08:08,220
made in Canada very nice very breathable

109
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:12,240
with low VOC content which actually does matter when you're applying a paint they

110
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:18,060
say it contains no toxic solvents plasticizers or other toxic ingredients

111
00:08:15,060 --> 00:08:20,520
it's water-based containing mostly an

112
00:08:18,060 --> 00:08:25,379
acrylic binder water natural graphite and carbon black and while I said a

113
00:08:24,180 --> 00:08:30,419
whole bunch of stuff about how non-toxic it is I would like to point out that none of this is actually unique in the

114
00:08:28,860 --> 00:08:35,279
paint industry and I would strongly suggest that you not consume any of this

115
00:08:32,459 --> 00:08:40,440
however non-toxic it might be by the way as we discovered during the creation of

116
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:42,240
our test enclosure it is even more

117
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:46,800
clothes stainy than thermal paste so make sure you are super careful when

118
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:52,160
you're using it rather than painting a room we decided to paint a box

119
00:08:49,380 --> 00:08:52,160
movie Magic

120
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,459
painted this whole

121
00:08:56,700 --> 00:09:02,700
this whole box has some small gaps in it we used foil tape to cover them and

122
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:08,580
we'll be using the same to seal our phone inside we just need to devise a

123
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:12,720
test that allows us to actually monitor what the bloody thing is doing well

124
00:09:10,260 --> 00:09:21,000
here's one thing I can put it in and see if that does oh oh wow

125
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:23,940
I I actually have really high hopes for

126
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:26,300
this it's not even enclosed okay hold on hold on

127
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:30,920
93 which is worse

128
00:09:33,380 --> 00:09:40,279
oh minus 105.

129
00:09:36,839 --> 00:09:40,279
and it's still got a big gap

130
00:09:42,300 --> 00:09:44,959
buddy

131
00:09:49,019 --> 00:09:51,980
106.

132
00:09:52,500 --> 00:09:57,180
okay that's not 70 or 80 decibels or

133
00:09:55,800 --> 00:10:03,120
whatever but that's something it's 25

134
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:06,420
and that's on a cardboard box how about a practical demo what does this mean in

135
00:10:04,680 --> 00:10:08,540
real world terms or wait do we have internet

136
00:10:08,820 --> 00:10:14,760
oh perfect then I'll just go to YouTube why does everybody put 5G in their house

137
00:10:11,940 --> 00:10:19,200
this is great I could actually I have no idea how much that costs

138
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:24,839
I mean while we're at it why doesn't everybody have the new stubby Screwdriver from lttstore.com I've got

139
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:31,320
an LTT video loaded up here I'm gonna go ahead and change the quality to I mean

140
00:10:28,620 --> 00:10:34,620
let's go 4K right we're at 4K and I've got stats for nerds overlaid so you can

141
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:40,140
actually see right now our connection rate is about

142
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:42,720
40 megabit as measured by stats for

143
00:10:40,140 --> 00:10:50,579
nerds now let's go ahead and drop it into the boom we are down to 30.

144
00:10:47,339 --> 00:10:52,380
33 34 still that's quite a bit lower and

145
00:10:50,579 --> 00:10:59,540
it gets better let's go ahead and start to close it

146
00:10:54,300 --> 00:10:59,540
we're down to 20 under 20.

147
00:11:06,779 --> 00:11:12,720
10 3.

148
00:11:09,779 --> 00:11:19,320
it will almost certainly buffer very soon oh it's buffering it's buffering uh

149
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:23,100
it cannot play I don't even need to I don't even need

150
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:26,480
to seal this it cannot play the video

151
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:35,420
oh oh she's going okay well

152
00:11:33,060 --> 00:11:39,540
we are not going to know for sure exactly when or how it cuts out because

153
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:43,500
I have no way of monitoring the screen Inside the Box

154
00:11:41,399 --> 00:11:46,579
but we can go ahead and seal it up thanks Colin

155
00:11:47,399 --> 00:11:49,820
all right

156
00:11:52,860 --> 00:11:57,720
I gotta tell you um I wasn't sure exactly what to expect

157
00:11:56,579 --> 00:12:02,700
today but it wasn't for it to be this good

158
00:12:00,779 --> 00:12:08,600
I kind of thought this was going to be more like the Hat

159
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,600
can I come over here 5G blocking paint

160
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:14,120
you're trying to block 5G I mean

161
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:20,820
paint a box oh

162
00:12:18,060 --> 00:12:24,000
I'm so glad we have that other box can you hand me the control box which was

163
00:12:22,680 --> 00:12:30,480
totally Our intention the whole time let's pull this out of here maybe

164
00:12:26,399 --> 00:12:32,820
cardboard blocks 5G okay you ready I'm

165
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:38,459
pulling it out and oh yeah she's struggling two megabit and you can

166
00:12:35,700 --> 00:12:43,740
actually see that during a lot of this it's not able to transfer anything

167
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:47,220
now that we're back up here it's playing we're at four megabit and it looks like

168
00:12:45,959 --> 00:12:53,639
it's gonna keep climbing because it's actually above the scale very cool

169
00:12:50,940 --> 00:12:58,620
now something The Savvy among you might have realized or thought of at this

170
00:12:55,800 --> 00:13:02,040
point is that if this is 5G millimeter wave

171
00:12:59,639 --> 00:13:06,779
just about anything could block it it's not millimeter wave but if it were a

172
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:11,399
piece of paper could block it so let's go ahead and see is it just the fact

173
00:13:08,339 --> 00:13:13,440
that our Network sucks we're at 47

174
00:13:11,399 --> 00:13:19,740
megabit right now let's go ahead and drop it in oh boy we're at 54.

175
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:24,000
this is not 5G enhancing cardboard I promise you that much it doesn't seem to

176
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:29,040
be making any difference what's at 59. okay no really don't take away the wrong

177
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:33,360
conclusion here you guys but there's one major thing we haven't

178
00:13:30,839 --> 00:13:38,459
addressed yet while EMR shielding Solutions Inc does claim protection

179
00:13:35,279 --> 00:13:40,680
against high frequency RF microwave and

180
00:13:38,459 --> 00:13:46,139
low frequency electric Fields they require you to ground it so they

181
00:13:43,139 --> 00:13:48,180
actually sell a kind of foil tape that

182
00:13:46,139 --> 00:13:52,800
you can run along the baseboards in the painted area then you paint over it with

183
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:57,420
this stuff which is supposed to act more like a primer or a base coat and then

184
00:13:55,019 --> 00:14:00,360
you apply your regular paint over top of this so that your guests don't need to

185
00:13:59,399 --> 00:14:02,959
know that you get your news from Infowars

186
00:14:07,100 --> 00:14:11,820
anyway our box is grounded now

187
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:14,940
let's go ahead and try it one more time I'm not really expecting it to change

188
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:23,779
that much I suspect this is more about the blockage okay 50 megabit that's not

189
00:14:19,139 --> 00:14:23,779
too bad for 4K YouTube all right

190
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:37,100
and ah there we go okay down to 40 38 37

191
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:37,100
35 she's dropping okay

192
00:14:37,620 --> 00:14:40,399
15

193
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:45,199
and more effective

194
00:14:49,019 --> 00:14:55,339
count to three megabit and she's buffering

195
00:14:56,699 --> 00:15:02,279
it's not the most scientific test either I'm not necessarily convinced that's

196
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:06,600
making a ton of difference but sure if you were going for the most effective

197
00:15:04,500 --> 00:15:10,139
covering possible then you would probably want to ground your paint but

198
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:16,320
you'd also probably want to remove your doors and your Windows so

199
00:15:14,100 --> 00:15:22,139
um given that your house no matter what you do is going to be less sealed and

200
00:15:19,139 --> 00:15:24,480
less grounded than this so I suspect

201
00:15:22,139 --> 00:15:29,940
that if your goal was to completely block any kind of signal in or out you

202
00:15:27,779 --> 00:15:34,860
are going to be sorely disappointed the good news is that nothing that we've

203
00:15:33,060 --> 00:15:39,360
looked at today including me standing right next to this 5D antenna is

204
00:15:37,139 --> 00:15:42,540
anywhere near Health Canada's guidelines for prolonged exposure to

205
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:46,860
electromagnetic fields and in fact according to their guidelines unless the

206
00:15:44,940 --> 00:15:50,880
device is quite literally heating up your skin there is no scientifically

207
00:15:48,779 --> 00:15:54,899
established long-term effect to the frequencies that are emitted by consumer

208
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:59,699
electronics and there's even more good news if your goal was not to achieve

209
00:15:57,660 --> 00:16:06,120
some kind of health benefit but simply to attenuate the RF signals from any

210
00:16:02,639 --> 00:16:07,440
device inside your box like a car key in

211
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:11,940
that spoofing example that we gave you guys earlier in the video then this

212
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:17,220
actually works way better than I expected and it could absolutely be part

213
00:16:14,579 --> 00:16:21,540
of your toolbox though with that said If you're trying to block a signal a

214
00:16:18,779 --> 00:16:25,220
toolbox might do a better job at a much lower price assuming it's made of metal

215
00:16:23,279 --> 00:16:29,880
like this Segway July of course there so you want to build

216
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:34,199
a build but you don't know the difference between a 12 pin and a

217
00:16:31,980 --> 00:16:37,079
bowling pin or maybe you do and you just want to reduce clutter with one

218
00:16:35,699 --> 00:16:41,880
standardized cable that connects everything well Corsair's IQ link

219
00:16:39,420 --> 00:16:46,860
ecosystem could be the answer you can create a chain of devices using the same

220
00:16:44,220 --> 00:16:51,899
simple connector all leading to a single IQ link system Hub that can be attached

221
00:16:49,139 --> 00:16:57,959
to your PC's frame using the mysterious power of magnets not even Fame scientist

222
00:16:55,199 --> 00:17:02,699
Dr Shaggy too dope knows how those work oh boy each of the hub's two ports can

223
00:17:01,019 --> 00:17:05,819
handle up to seven connected devices which reduces cabling complexity and

224
00:17:04,559 --> 00:17:10,860
with a range of products in the ecosystem like coolers power supplies

225
00:17:08,339 --> 00:17:16,740
and even fans building a fully connected PC is a breeze because fans get it oh

226
00:17:14,819 --> 00:17:21,360
and you can customize the RGB lighting of all your Corsair devices with their

227
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:24,860
IQ software check out Corsair's IQ link smart ecosystem at the link

228
00:17:25,079 --> 00:17:30,600
Blue Link down below if you guys enjoyed this video maybe go check out the one

229
00:17:29,100 --> 00:17:35,640
where we bought um router

230
00:17:32,179 --> 00:17:37,320
RF blocking enclosures yeah that's right

231
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:42,600
that is a thing that is actually for sale it turns out they're just paper

232
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:45,919
holders that have been reprinted and

233
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,919
they don't really block that much
