Has anyone used tachyon discs for Electric Magenetic Field protection? I saw them advertised specifically for the Prius battery--but I am unsure if it is worthwhile. I'd appreciate any input or information--Bluejay

What would make you believe, for one second, that they could/would actually do ANYTHING but deplete your check book?

Pure scam, 100%.

By the absolute abscence of any scientific evidence to support the preposterous claim that some silly disk could somehow evade all other laws of physics to accomplish what is claimed.

It makes no logical sense, there is no evidence other than the manufacturer's claims.

Also, others have measured the EMF in the Prius and found it to be WELL within normal/acceptible limits so even if, somehow, this "miracle device" did do what it claims there is no point.

Doc , Doc, Doc, remember, there are still people who wear magnetic bands to ward off.........things. Does anyone notice that "Tachyon" is a term also used in "Star Trek" shows?

Yeah, I remember tachyons from Star Trek. Something to do with Romulans, I think, and time travel. They were supposed to be 'time particles', or something.

Tachyon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
A tachyon (from the Greek ταχύς takhús, meaning "swift") is any hypothetical particle that travels at superluminal velocity. The first theoretical description of tachyons is attributed to German physicist Arnold Sommerfeld; however, the concept has recurred in a variety of other contexts, such as string theory. Many strange properties have been attributed to tachyons, which also play a role in some popular science fiction. In the language of special relativity, a tachyon is a particle with space-like four-momentum and imaginary proper time. A tachyon is constrained to the space-like portion of the energy-momentum graph. Therefore, it can never slow to light speed or below.

This is certaintly one opinion--I like to hear from anyone willing to share if they used them and saw some difference. Facts change all the time--I'd take people's personal experience over any "scientic research." That's a loaded term in our country where the fact's. figures and evidence lean toward a desired outcome. Ya gotts give me something better.

No one is determining my safety level of EMF's--please!!! And your making me sound like I am gullible. Cigarettes are safe too, so is GMO food!!

Remember, if you don't reverse the polarity of the neutron flow, you're flux will be out of whack all week.
