You can get an emf reader app on your phone. Put it next to my smart metre and gave A very slight reading. Well in the range of 'safe' levels. Put it next to my radio in the kitchen and it went mental..
Read into that what you want.

I assume your radio has speakers. Speakers have magnets.

Yep. That's true. It proves that the EMF sensor works and therefore shows nothing much being emitted from the smart metre.
So with my scientific experiment you can all stop worrying .

It's designed to stop fraud and save the energy company money.

Unless you focus it on one specific point and apply hundreds of watts of energy into powering it, like in a microwave , only then will it be harmful - so don't stick your head in a microwave oven and you'll be fine. But to my knowledge your smart meter isn't powered by 800w of energy, and neither is your phone. And neither are either focusing their energy. In fact they're doing the opposite.

In the dead of night, and through cloud cover, you receive much more EM radiation from the sun's reflection off the moon than any household electronic used correctly.
Don`t know if any of that is true, but you sound like you know what you are talking about so I`ll go with that!

Don't know about being harmful or saving money.
Ours sits in the garage next to the meters.
Gets a glance now and then to see what's being used for the year.Bit useful I suppose.
