“…some reports suggest that radiation and heat emitted from Wi-Fi enabled laptop computers can be harmful to reproductive health..”
When you’re using your laptop, have you ever thought about the radiation danger. I sure haven’t….and most don’t. But there have been studies out there that still contend that radiation is a serious threat, particularly when laptops sit on laps and are in very close proximity to our human skin.
Digital Innovations, a company out of Arlington Heights, Illinois, has come up with a new product to protect you from radiation and heat emitted from a laptop. The [amazon_link id=”B005NAT4DG” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]LapGuard[/amazon_link] looks like a high-quality lap desk, but it’s more. It features dual USB-powered fans to help keep your computer’s internal processors cool. It also features breathable padding on the underside to promote airflow to the computer as well as keep your lap cool and comfortable.
Some reports indicate that radiation emitted from Wi-Fi enabled laptop computers may be harmful to your reproductive system as well. Whether you are male or female, this aint’ good! The LapGuard features patent-pending technology to shield your sensitive reproductive organs from laptop radiation and heat as well.
LapGuard will provide radiation shielding regardless if the USB cable is plugged into the computer or not. However, when the USB cable IS plugged in, it provides the maximum amount of shielding…this is done through an innovative grounding circuitry.

Digital Innovations® is First in Industry to Offer Radiation Shielding in a Lap Desk/Laptop Cooling Pad
Innovative LapGuard™ line protects laptop users from potentially harmful radiation and heat.
Arlington Heights, IL, October 3, 2011 – Digital Innovations, LLC (DI), a leader in high-quality, innovative consumer electronics accessories and computer peripherals, is pleased to announce LapGuard™ with Radiation Shielding.
LapGuard is a laptop radiation shield that doubles as a laptop cooling pad and/or lap desk. It’s the first product of its kind in the consumer electronics industry.
Digital Innovations CEO Collin Anderson explained that laptop radiation is a growing concern among consumers. According to a recent third-party survey commissioned by the company, more than half of all laptop computer users are concerned about radiation emitted from laptops when using them on their laps.
“Recent reporting in magazines such as Women’s Health and Men’s Journal suggest that radiation and heat emitted from Wi-Fi enabled laptop computers can be harmful to reproductive health,” Anderson said. “Though the science is not yet conclusive, we developed LapGuard to provide peace of mind for the growing number of heavy laptop users who are concerned about potential health effects. And we did so by incorporating radiation shielding in a way that also provides comfort to the user and promotes laptop life.”
To the casual observer, LapGuard looks like a high-quality lap desk. It features dual USB-powered fans to help keep the computer’s internal processors cool. It also features breathable padding on the underside to promote airflow to the computer as well as keep the user’s lap cool and comfortable.
What really sets LapGuard apart from standard lap desks, though, is its grounded metal plate, which, besides conducting laptop heat away from the user’s legs, is specially designed to reflect Wi-Fi radiation away from the sensitive reproductive area.
LapGuard™ initially comes in two models:
The Digital Innovations® LapGuard™ with Radiation Shielding Technology (model # 4290500) features variable-speed fans. Other features include a heavily padded, wedge-shaped design that promotes typing comfort and a retractable USB cable for easy cable management.
The Digital Innovations® Portable LapGuard™ with Radiation Shielding Technology (model # 4290400) features an ultra-slim design and cable management system for portability.
