This seems significant

Could also just be the electrical interference with helmets electronics

It is, just put my phone to a 3M Speedglass and it flickered a bit, fully darkening with a solid data trasfer (loading a webpage).

Are you trying to view your phone while wearing the hood?
Because the hood is supposed to block bright light, idiot.

The brain tumors in those super-career people who were on the phone all the time before texting and the speaker was a thing.

Most men hold them in their pocket right by their dick. No wonder we can't reproduce anymore.

It has to be pretty sensitive. Not surprising RF sound be picked up by poor shielding or the light sensor itself. Some Geiger counters/scintillation detectors also get triggered by RF.

Our helmets have light sensors, not radiation sensors.

Light is radiation. I think its the Bluetooth.

It's easy to see that cellphones have magnetic fields

All electronics have magnetic fields. That's how they work. Electricity induces magnetic fields when moving through metals and such.

cell phones put out low power but at very high (above GHz) freqs thus significant energy over short distances

note: this is RF radiation and NOT ionizing radiation.

Day mode enjoyer confirmed.
