High Range Geiger Counter Model Better Geiger S-2 Nuclear Radiation Detector and Dosimeter for X-ray/Gamma Monitoring (Detector with Waterproof case)

High Range Geiger Counter Model Better Geiger S-2 Nuclear Radiation Detector and Dosimeter for X-ray/Gamma Monitoring (Detector with Waterproof case)

Handheld radiation detector for everyday use or emergency preparedness Solid-state sensor handles 100x higher radiation levels than standard Geiger counters Automatic correction of measured dose rate base on incoming X-ray/gamma energy for better accuracy Scintillator design is 3x more sensitive to X-ray/gamma than typical Geiger counters Easy to understand display and simple controls user-controlled dose rate and total dose alarms Convenient to power with two AA batteries with typical >50 hour operating time Rugged and reliable design - rubber shock protector included Designed and manufactured in the USA Optional waterproof case can be included (see item variations) Optional test source Uranium ore sample can be included (see item variations) The Better Geiger Radiation Detector is designed to be a sensitive, accurate, and easy to use tool to measure potentially hazardous radiation levels. The user can set dose rate and total dose alarms as desired. It uses a solid scintillator material instead of a traditional Geiger tube. Compared to the M4011 type Geiger tube commonly used in other detectors, with a Cs-137 source the Better Geiger is over 3x more sensitive and can measure 100x higher maximum dose rates (up to 100 mSv/hr), making it more suitable for extreme environments. The OLED screen is bright and clearly visible even in daylight. Controls are handled by six simple to use buttons. A rubber shock-absorber is included for ruggedness. An optional waterproof case can be purchased to protect the device further. An optional test source sample can be included as well, a small quantity of natural uranium ore.
