My guess is being exposed to Bluetooth is going to be the least of your concerns.

What do you want from us? Not like we're doctors or medical researchers here. Google search "risks of bluetooth" or "bluetooth and cancer correlation" and I'm sure you will find every answer from wear a foil hat to it's perfectly harmless... the truth is likely somewhere in between.

A) All the sarcastic responses should show you how concerned others are with health issues caused by bluetooth. B) If you don't have any bluetooth devices, odds are roughly 100% that you will encounter other people's bluetooth devices throughout your day. C) Are you also afraid of am/fm waves? D) My personal opinion based on experience: I was a 14J... our radars scan 40km (unclassified) in every direction and are powered by a 10kw generator. Bluetooth transmits 20 feet at best and is generally powered by a cell phone battery. Which do you think is more likely to give us cancer? Do you think you aren't in range of any aircraft radars?

Are you worried about police radar/laser? Garage door openers? Television remote controls? The list goes on. Hopefully you can appreciate why you are getting ******** answers given your ******** question.

But the porn addiction thing is real.

Beat me to it. Asking a car audio forum about the risks of bluetooth is like asking a medical advice forum about the best brand of alternator.

It is a valid question, but as some have said we are exposed to multiple sources of radiation throughout the day, and some are stronger than others. Even in your home you are exposed to EMR Electro Magnetic Radiation and so many devices can affect this EMR reading, e.g. wifi, cellphone, laptop, PC, 5g, microwave...etc. All you can do is reduce your exposure to these devices and not use them. So for your car just opt to not use BT and stick with a wired connection. Also 5g does cause corona

Bluetooth devices emit low levels of nonionizing radiation. Exposure to low amounts of this type of radiation is not harmful to humans. According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), routine exposure to nonionizing radiation is “generally perceived as harmless to humans.”

this sounds so comforting and I want to believe like a good boy, but I don’t trust government nor there biased studies in the FDA. There is plenty of research to show that there are changes on a cellular level when exposed to BT, depending on the strength level of course but these Consumer BT devices emit enough power to cause cells to change. Believe in whatever makes you feel safe, ignorance is bliss
