Excellent article Proton! I too believe that I must be getting abducted by aliens every night as well. The poor sleep patterns, waking up hourly, lucid dreams. No signs of “probing” yet thankfully. Or it could all be from the arms length list of wifi networks available from my bedroom along with the multiple smart meters on every single house and the weapons grade led street lights that illuminate them. It takes a double layer of window coverings to block out the light blast. Then about six months ago my neighbor installed led lights in the eaves of his house around the entire perimeter… the house is lit up like the Vegas strip along with every neighbouring yard. I actually wish it were alien abductions, it would be more fun. The earthling technology is meant for depopulation, alien technology is for research purposes only, most likely to try and conclude why the human planetary leaders want to kill off their population.
As for the Proton prepping article, advice on sourcing incandescent bulbs would be appreciated, here in Kanadastan they are rarer than an un-corrupted politician.
Thanks Woody, I seem to have it easy compared to you. On the bulbs don't know. I guess a trip abroad and extra suitcases could work. If you could pack them properly...
try looking for them abroad (internet sites). in Europe they're being phased out, but those who know their city's older stores can still purchase them there ;-))
Thanks Mary-Lou, yes the small town Mom and Pop hardware stores still seem to have stock of them. Although the stores are slowly being pushed out of business, the ones I do find still open are very old school owners and defiant about the new tech, which is good to see.
I wonder if that is a solution for road driving, the oncoming headlights are very bright and causing accidents. Happy to hear what other have to say.
This post though is about bike/walking paths not driving and the meters are just to get data to present to the city, they don't help with the brightness on the paths. The meter cost of about $30 is not much different than the cost of glasses.
car lights should either have a lower intensity or better positioned/customised light beams. blinding on-coming drivers instead of illuminating the road doesn't make sense. but hey, what does, these days.... big TQ for doing this research!
light pollution is a far more serious problem than anybody cares to acknowledge (remember the ostrich? head in the proverbial sand). near here it's a result from the greenhouse production of greens/fruits/flowers on an industrial scale, mostly for export. yep, we can have fresh strawberries, tulips and bell peppers all year round, never you mind the downside! well, actually, we do mind....
I walk a lot at night in the surrounding neighborhoods. I feel like I am under assault with not only the vehicle headlights but now everyone has the most grotesque, HUGE white LED lights outside their homes, so I have to walk with my head down and often with my hands shielding my face):
And now with all the LED halloween decorations, it's even worse, and to think Christmas is right around the corner!
As I noted in my first comment, there are other, deadlier consequences of these lights...
Glasses, however, I have found useful. If I hadn't used blue-filter coating on my glasses in the last 10 years, chances are, I would be already half blind. Started using them after noticing the problem, and my eyes have successfully regenerated; my vision is the same as it was 10 years ago.
Problem: Excessively bright (to the point of blinding) LED street lights, traffic signals, and headlights, in combination with 75-year-old eyeballs. The view of the road can suddenly vanish due to oncoming headlights (if LEDs, not incandescent) or approach of glaring green traffic signal lights. Street lights directed downward are somewhat less of a problem (just don't look straight at them), as are yellow and red traffic lights (for people who don't run them, but again don't look straight at these lights).
Solutions: Give up regular driving at night, and all that goes with it, bum night rides from friends, or pay for rides from younger drivers whose eyes have (hopefully) not yet been wrecked. (This assumes a desire to live and not be maimed or killed, which may not apply to all drivers.)
The remaining incandescent headlights that meet the formerly-existing legal standards for brightness (in California) serve as a control. They still do not present a problem, and the rule always was to not look straight at them.
Really interesting--thanks for this investigation. Those lights are so extremely bright, my first question is, why would they do this? It's expensive to set up and run, and it goes against conventional standards. My thought is, they would do this to acquire high-quality photos for facial recognition technology, and/or to test facial recognition technology in nighttime conditions.
That could be part of it yes! Could also be there are other, e.g. infrared lights in the same fixture that we can’t see further damaging eyes and/or brains. What they want is a general dumbing down of the population to more easily herd us into 4Ir and transhumanism and getting shots for depopulation. Poor eyesight and brain fog is part of that.
Though I should add, over half the light fixtures are many years old, they just changed the bulbs to LED (supposedly). Some new LED fixtures have also been added to the paths, as you can see they are pretty dense..
On your favorite topic, death stats, the homicide rate in Japan is said to be "0" meaning <1/100k (@0.233), The US is at 5.8/100k. Not sure why they need night-game lighting levels.
But for efficiency to get something in the eyes of people, or for facial recognition, the train stations are by far the winners, not the bike paths which are nothing even close.
It would also be interesting to look more at infrasound--which officially, is not an effective weapon. It would be so easy, cheap and low-tech to install an infrasound generator in ANYTHING with a foundation, including any kind of tower. As I recall, it is believed to be most effective underground. If you look at the very diffuse adverse health effects that are said to have resulted from the use of infrasound in the beginning, I'd say it is def still in the running for fitting what happened in 2020--if you consider the idea that the "doesn't work" label may be a lie.
Maybe the LED bulbs zap your motivation for everything, including violence. That's what fluoride is said to do--a general numbing effect. It is hardly ever talked about anymore, but the rate of violent crime in the US has actually plunged dramatically since the 1970s, at a pretty stunning rate. And then not long ago, they turned over responsibility for tracking crime stats to the CDC, which seems to have buried this data.
When the obviously criminal LED mandate started, I still also acquired a hundred 60W incandescent bulbs on eBay. :)
I need eyeglasses for driving, and I have found light-sensitive self-darkening lenses (the lightest version) useful for night driving; they take off the glare from headlights coming from the opposite direction.
It looks like blue-filter coating on eyeglasses is a must (it is, on computer screens, anyway). For those not needing prescription eyeglasses, polarized lenses are preferably, but they are not always as good as their marketing, so one must check them out by using them for a few hours. Expensive sunglasses overfilter, depriving the eyes of normal light ranges, which can cheat the body into misinterpreting the environment.
I haven't tried buying incand. bulbs lately as I have a decent supply but the bulbs called 'Rough Service" are incand. and should be available somewhere.
I just saw it thanks. Perhaps she says some valuable things but hard to trust someone who promotes the surface of the moon as being a gas.
On her first video, I looked at my pc, cordless phone and 2 incandescent fixtures on my desk. All of them read high @1000 uW/m2 when you put the Safe and Sound sensor near them like she did with the ring light. The only thing is that is not where my head is. You need to put the sensor where your head is-over a foot away from these things which measures much lower @about 100 uW/M2.
Your a correct about "citizen activism", I'm just one small person, imagine even 1% of the population working on a project, society could change drastically.
I HATE LED light, it's really irritating to me. I tried to buy up all the incandescent bulbs I could, but they were almost impossible to find by then... I have a few. Sometimes I find them in thrift shops. I've noticed, too, that in newer model cars, the headlights are SEVERE. Gee, maybe the Nasties WANT us to crash and kill each other...
Then there's the factor of the LED lights having mercury in them, which apparently makes a mercury HAZE when heated... FFS, I'm tired of being hunted and poisoned and toxified and prevented from sleeping (not really, but!)... The CRITTEREN don't have the option of getting out of that constant LIGHT, and it's harmful to them, too.
Arrrr, grrrrr, woooof, wooooowoooooooo! We NEED good darkness, for good sleep!! Critters, too.

Sleep problems seem to have started with the 5G towers and the "smart" meters:

The latest, 5G-compatible home Wi-Fis added to the problem:

They’re in DOLLARAMA!!!

this defiance might be all we have, absolutely heart-warming. good luck w/the bulbs then!
I'm in the states and stocked up these (see link) (60 watt T10 incandescent).
Should last me a long time.
Also, I use incandescent appliance bulbs in many of my lamps which top out at 40 watts but still better than the LEDs.

Excellent Lee!
Word.
Why not just buy a cheap pair of polarized glasses for night driving? It would probably be cheaper than the light meters and less of a hassle.

Thanks for your kind worda mary-lou!
When the new LED headlights came out, my first thought was that this was just another form of harming and endangering people...

Yes, I know many folks, including myself, that feel a bit numb watching screens, and much better when off them, especially when going outside.
Good information, little proton!

Let's just use a word that covers ALL the things going on these days: Fuckery!

Did you notice that Medicine Girl has some article referencing LEDs. It’s weird timing.

Great advocacy work, and thank you for giving us a template to work from. Your humor and snark are always welcome, too. 😊👏🏻
Your too nice Lisa! Pleasure to hear from you.
