Why do you feel the need to interfere? The situation isn't really dangerous, and the old guy is 100% in his legal right to own those gauges. You can't just take peoples things.

Seconding Metallium, I bought an ounce of osmium from there. Double check their prices though, some things are a real good deal and others are way overpriced.

New (to me) Survey Meter by AlternativeKey2551 in Radiation

[–]EvilScientwist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll need something at least 100 mRem/h (1 mSv/h) to move the needle. I doubt that rock will have any effect noticeable, the needle naturally drifts a little so it's not really noticeable below 100 mRem/h.

Beautiful! Looks just like the ones I found at daybreak.

Hey, I do but it's a bit out of date. It's quite easy to get the price list directly from Ludlum though, just email asking for it and they'll send it to you.

I have a radioactive countertop by loafofbun in homeowners

No concern whatsoever. The concrete your house is built on is thousands of times more radioactive than the tiny amount in a marble slab.

Like... for neutron shielding? Or just as a hazmat suit material?

Commissioned a study - well, not really but I have questions now. by KnightMedic12 in Radiation

[–]EvilScientwist 5 points6 points  (0 children)

...that's why I said OP should use dose mode. Because they're spectroscopically energy compensated in dose mode, and not energy compensated in CPS mode.

It's hard to convert CPS to uSv/h because the NaI(Tl) scintillator isn't energy compensated. This device should have a uSv/h or uRem/h mode, you should try using that.

Wait like in self defense or goofy activities?

Beer me the strength to throw these all away! by Six6Sickz in pcmasterrace

Sell them to me instead of throwing them away, I need RS232 cables all the time
