VR Video Games

Hello, fellow miracles!

I have an interest in video games. When they came out with

virtual reality games, I had to get one. I hadn't even thought about it until now,

but does anyone know if I can still use my headset?  It's the Play Station

helmet of sorts. Will all the restrictions and cautions we have, is this one as

well?

6" that's the Rule of Thumb

There really aren't a huge bunch of cautions and restrictions. Most cautions you read are CYA lawyer talk.

The rule of thumb for safely using anything you are liklely to encounted in normal, everyday life is to keep it 6 inches away from pacemaker.

Unless you have an unusually small head and short neck, anything on your ears should be perfectly safe.

And do be aware, that in the highly unlikely case of interference nothing life-threatening would occur, either to you or the pacemaker.

You are safe

I play on the Xbox one and the only thing we have to watch out for is the laying of the cords. My headphones have a cord that drapes down the front of me, I always have to keep it pushed off to the side. The headphones also have a 2nd cord that powers the lights to the headphone lights. Since these carry a small current each I don't chance anything and keep them to my side, on the right side of me.

I NEVER use my left ear for phones. Always use the right ear. Now excuse me I have to get back to my GTA 5 Casino mission. - joe
