Lets hope not too many use them as they tend to knock out mega interference.
Having said all of the usual stuff though, there is an effect where the
dissolved bits can clump under some circumstances in electric or magnetic
fields. the question is, what happens then?. Do they just coat the inside of
your pipe until you get no water?

One wonders how the resident village idiot will respond to a report that
says that his beloved snake oil machines don't work.
