PEMF · targeted coil

ALMAG-01

A fixed-6-Hz coil chain that does publish a field value in millitesla, but it is a surface peak with no waveform stated, and its FDA presence is a biofeedback-device listing rather than a clearance.

1.0
Limited
Composite (0-10), pemf-v1.0
Confidence: Verified

This device does not publish a field strength in real units alongside a stated frequency, so it is capped on Verified Field Spec, our heaviest dimension. Read a low band here as "the field claim cannot be checked", not a judgement on how it feels to use - which is not something we score. The regulatory, programmability, and coverage rows below tell the rest.

Flags

  • · Leads with a momentary peak field (for example an 'up to X gauss' figure) rather than the sustained field at a stated frequency, so the headline is not a usable operating spec.
  • · Markets FDA registration/listing, which is paperwork, not a 510(k) clearance.

Who it is for

    Who should skip it

    • · Anyone who wants to know the actual field strength and frequency - this device does not publish a usable spec
    • · Buyers who read 'FDA registered' as a clearance - it is paperwork, not a clearance
    • · Value-focused buyers - it scores poorly on what we weight

    How it scored

    Verified Field Spec

    0.0/10 · 30%

    A magnetic flux density in real units (microtesla or gauss) published WITH a stated frequency in Hz, ideally with the waveform. A unit-less intensity level or a peak with no frequency is not a usable spec.

    • ·Peak field figure, not a sustained operating spec C20000 µT peak at 6 Hz - A peak field strength tells you the maximum a pulse touches, not the field your body sits in. We do not credit a peak headline as the operating field.

    Regulatory Honesty

    0.0/10 · 20%

    A real FDA 510(k) clearance (rare in consumer PEMF) versus FDA registration/listing used as if it were a clearance, plus electrical/EMC certification, recall history, and warranty.

    • ·FDA registered/listed, not cleared Aregistration/listing only - FDA registration or listing is paperwork any maker can file; it is not a finding of effectiveness and not a 510(k) clearance.

    Frequency & Programmability

    0.0/10 · 15%

    Whether frequency and intensity are adjustable across a stated range, and whether control is programmable.

    • ·Single fixed program Cnot adjustable - Runs one fixed program with no adjustable frequency or intensity.

    Coverage & Applicators

    3.0/10 · 15%

    What the device actually covers: a full-body mat, a targeted local coil, or a wearable, and how many applicators it drives.

    • +2Targeted local applicator Ctargeted coil - A local coil treats one area at a time.
    • +1Single applicator C1 applicator - One applicator.

    Value

    2.5/10 · 20%

    Price against the median for its format (full-body mat, targeted coil, or wearable).

    • +2.5Price vs format median A$699 (near class median) - Price scored against the median for its format. Format median about $599.

    What to know before buying

    • · Its 20 millitesla figure is a peak measured at the coil surface (0 inches), which by our rules is not a usable at-distance spec, and it runs a single fixed 6 Hz with no stated waveform.
    • · openFDA lists the ALMAG family as a 'Biofeedback Device' under the manufacturer (Yelatma), a registration/listing rather than a 510(k) clearance.
    • · A flexible chain of four linked coils with no adjustable intensity or frequency.

    FAQ

    Is the ALMAG-01's 20 millitesla figure a usable field spec?
    No. In our reading it is a peak measured at the coil surface (0 inches), which by our rules is not a usable at-distance spec, and the device runs a single fixed 6 Hz with no stated waveform. We cap and flag the field dimension as a result.
    Does ALMAG-01's FDA presence mean it is cleared?
    No. openFDA lists the ALMAG family as a 'Biofeedback Device' under the manufacturer, which is a registration/listing rather than a 510(k) clearance. In our framing that is paperwork, so we flag it and credit no clearance.
