Question

I can feel the blue tooth signal of the Apple Airpods

I can feel the blue tooth signal of the Apple Airpods. They DO cause a pain/pressue/unnatural feeling inside my ears. This is even when there is no audio coming from them. Just having them in my ear while im getting dressed for work i can feel the signal. When i swipe the bluetooth icon off from my iPhone the feeling disappears so i know its real. Id even be willing (APPLE) take a blind test and tell you when you power the bluetooth off and on because it CAN be felt. Some just aren't sensitive to life enough to notice it.

There have been many double-blind tests held concerning people who are sensitive detecting Bluetooth and WiFi. In no test could the people reliably tell when Bluetooth or WiFi was on.

Even if you went to Apple and could show them what to you expect them to do? Stop using Bluetooth?

You must never go anywhere near anyone or any store using Bluetooth. Otherwise you would feel it all the time.

Yes. Stop using Bluetooth ! :) Hopefully they can come up with a way that won’t interfere with human comfort. WiFi is a different story. I like the AirPods, they just become bothersome when the signal is felt. Maybe mine are defected and emitting a stronger signal than they’re supposed to ?

How can I point that out? Because they have done repeat studies of the phenomena and in NONE of them could people reliably tell when they are exposed to Bluetooth.

Also because you apparently don't have much understanding of science. As I already told you the AirPods do not emit a Bluetooth signal, they RECEIVE a Bluetooth signal from the device they are connected to. The only time you could feel a BT signal from an iPod would be when you tap them to change tracks, invoke Siri, talk to Siri. At all other times the device you are connected to emits the Bluetooth signal. So if you are connected to say your iPhone and you are feeling this discomfort it is the iPhone causing it, not the AirPods. So quit using your iPhone. Also don't go into any stores that use iBeacons.

Additionally the AirPods use Low Power Bluetooth when they do transmit.

No, they won't be able to do that because it is NOT interfering with human comfort as I already pointed out. And the only time your AirPods emit a Bluetooth signal is when you tap them to connect to your iPhone and that is a very brief period. Other than that they receive a Bluetooth stream from your iPhone, so if you were really sensitive to BT then you are feeling the emissions from your iPhone. Stop using you iPhone.

How can you point out what IM feeling ? LOL I just told you they DO cause a discomfort . They connect via Bluetooth to my iPhone not for their power source but for the data. When the iPhone is connected via swiping the Bluetooth icon , the frequency emitted from the AirPods causes a discomfort. True , the iPhones Bluetooth connection causes the Airpods to transfer a discomforting signal.
