For some time, i'm been wondering about potential dangers of EMF from hybrid batteries. These batteries are in big capacity and usually placed in close proximity to drivers and passengers. The car cabin space is very small.
So google is my best friend. For those thinking of getting hybrid cars or already driving one, think about EMF dangers.
POV, i don't trust the claims from car makers. There are already lots of cheating done on fuel consumption. I'm not surprised if they cheat on the EMF test results. Fuel cheating doesn't damage your health, but EMF will.
At this moment, there are some contradicting articles about EMF dangers.
