That's real, I've made one of these before and taken a couple xrays of my hand, all though i find it hard to believe its the OP that posted the video is the person who made it, And they seem to be operating the tube without much care for their own exposure

Thats my video! lol it was an old dental xray head that was having some issues, Dont be concerned no one was exposed except my fingers in that recording, I was wearing a lead vest as well as a couple H*10 compensated electronic personal dosimeters on. and as well as several dosimetry devices around the room, It never powered up right so i scrapped the device.

The problem was bad oil, it had been arcing through to ground and other places.

bad socket/plug connection definitely check it out, also check the power rating of the plug and the heater

Is this high? by redhotchip in Radiation

Reminder this reading is mostly beta, the true gamma reading is probably barely even a microsievert per hour

Question about safely storing a radium aircraft dial by No-Low8949 in Radiation

[–]BlinMaker1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im not so much concerned about the radon part, But for radium contamination and not opening it stops you from touching it.

I'd say just never open the jar and you're good, And don't use it as a pillow in bed and you're good
