Tools and Hardware Reviews of Low Cost Geiger Counter

Customer Review: Background scanner
Summary: 5 Stars

Well made, uses 2AAA batteries, accurate when compared to more expensive meter tested against beta and gamma sources. Light, easy to read, good instructions. Maximum reading is 999 microREM/h. This is great for background testing, but may not give you the upper ranges to measure higher levels you will need if you are looking for the safest place on 'the day after'.
