Nobody knows, but after many different experiment world wide about the use of various types of radios including Bluetooth, theres still no evidence its at all harmful to health. Bear in mind most of us here on sites like this have been using such technology for years now and are suffering from no ill effects.

I'm not sick
I've used the last 2 years bluetooth headset every other day for about 4 hours.

I use bluetooth (stereo) headsets for the last 4 years almost everyday ...
I do not beleve that there is any "healthy radiation"
but it is less than your mobile.

I use my MW-600 nearly everyday and have had the earlier
versions using since around 2006-7 I think.

I've been using bluetooth headsets since the very original Ericsson HBH-10 about 10 years ago, which even came with a DBA-10 bluetooth adaptor for phones pre-T68 that didn't have bluetooth. It also came in a tin with world a/c adaptors and a nice little leather pouch and a hard case.
I'm fairly sure it has not affected me (though some might want to disagree
), and bluetooth certainly uses less power than wifi or even GSM for which there is still no proof that even the radiation from those are harmful.

I've been using ds980 for last 2 years, everyday. I am sure i am fit and fine.
No harm at all.

Yeah, me too using HBH-DS980 more than 2 years and no harm

Quite true, the radiation from the BT headset is much less than from the GSM antenna, and by using a BT headset, it is possible to locate it farther away from vital body parts than if you use the handset directly (Don't put it in your front pocket of your trousers though
). Of course, using a wired headset makes the radiation even lesser.
On the other hand, the GSM radiation is highest when making phone calls, and very low otherwise, while the BT headset might also be used for listening to music, and hence the exposure time is longer, even though the radiation is smaller.

I have been using cell phones for over 10 years and the only place I have put them is in my front pocket of my trousers
I remember back in the days when this cell phone radiation scare started and people said all these things about them making a man impotent and so on an so forth but that hasn't affected my manhood in any way. Now they are talking about a man losing his ability to reproduce, I still say to those scientists give me clear and conclusive data and stop speculating.
Anyway, I only use a bluetooth headset when I am driving, otherwise I use my phone normally.

Same here. Been using different kinds of bluetooth headsets (mostly for music) for the past few years. Even bought the Jabra Clipper less than a week ago.

Radiation from radio waves does affect the body, and it may be harmful, if the power levels are large enough, but when it comes to radio waves from a Bluetooth device, I don't believe that there is any problem. The power levels are so low that the background radiation and the radiation from the cellphone itself are much higher.
Besides, when listening to music only, the Bluetooth headset is receiving the signal, not transmitting, and then it does not radiate anything at all.
Too high audio level in the headset may be harmful for the ears, though.

Bluetooth has its own acceptable range of use. If you read this Wiki article - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth#Health_concerns you'll know what I mean.

it may produce electricity radiation
Posted by goldenface
I've always used them. I hate wires.

Never used. Yes. Weird?

Bluetooth headsets are good Doesn't have that much radiation also No problems I'm using Nokia.
