Note that the Foodsaver generated RFI while plugged in, and turned off.  The audio video clip to the left shows the RFI and the audio from the Foodsaver.  Just having this device plugged in causes RFI, it does not need to be turned on, as per the person reporting.

I would expect that all Foodsavers generate RFI as companies tend to use the same design between models if possible.
