Why are people asked to switch phones off in a petrol station?

Although urban legends persist that a mobile phone can cause sparks or a build-up of static electricity in the user, this has not been duplicated under any controlled condition. Nevertheless, super-cautious mobile phone manufacturers and gas stations ask users to switch off their phones. One suggested origin of this myth is that the scare was started by gas station companies themselves because with some older model fuel pumps the cell phone signal would interfere with the fuel counter causing it to give a lower reading, and thus users could get some gas for free. A spark from wearing nylon clothing is more likely than from a mobile phone, to say nothing of the sparks that can occur in faulty car wiring or troubled starting and ignition systems. Most fueling is done in the open air, and there is not often an explosive concentration of vapors present.


Why are drivers of motor vehicles asked not to smoke or use their mobile phones while refuelling at petrol stations?

Because (a) smoking introduces a naked heat source which would ignite the petrol vapour, and (b) there is a chance of a static electricity spark being generated between the mobile antenna and other metal surfaces, which again would ignite petrol vapours !

I need a good quality phone at a low price.?

I have asked this question several times too. Basically the best deal that I have found is through Boost Mobile (prepaid Sprint phones). You have to pay for the phones, but they have really good monthly prices that go down if you stay with them! Oh yea, they are unlimited everything plans too - I believe for $55 monthly starting and going down from there (the longer you stay with them!).
