Radiation in our environment comes from both natural and man-made sources. This can lead to direct exposure of individuals to radioactivity. Radiation can cause cancer. In order to protect you from exposing radiation, having a radiation monitor for your office and home is very important. This is a brand new model designed for Window PC. Simply connect Pocket Geiger to your PC via USB drive, you PC becomes a radiation detector. In this way, you can know whether or not you are in a safe area. The level of radiation is expressed as an amount of radiation in Sievert (Sv) per hour of exposure. Average individual background radiation dose for Americans is 0.34 uSv/h. The Pocket Geiger can detect X ray and Gamma Ray only. Radiation is colorless, odorless and tasteless. It is impossible to tell whether you are being exposed and, if so, to how much, unless you have a Geiger counter or similar device. We believe that everyone should know the correct radiation level in a given location. Right now a mother or father has no way of making sure whether the home or office is safe for her or his child to play. In the past, it was hard to get a Geiger counter even if we wanted one, costing hundreds of dollars to buy. Because of this, Radiation-watch.org has developed a survey meter that is both reliable and affordable.
