Smart Geiger Counter Radiacode with Free Mobile App. Nuclear Radiation Detector.

This unit has a resolution of 1keV and can be used with the software package: RadioCode available to download from the app store and run on your mobile. The app is free to use, and provides a very comprehensive range of setting along with the colour the colour graphics. I would suggest that you buy a case to protect the unit; I bought the distinctive hard yellow case which provide more than adequate protection for field use. You can test out your unit on an old smoke detector which uses a Am241 as its source. Peaks occur around 60keV (true: 59.6) and 26keV (true: 26.3,) the difference being due to the 1keV limitation per channel.

Excellent. Instruction videos very good.

An incredible, real scientific instrument, not a toy. The model I have is the Radiacode 103. It is extremely sensitive; a granite headstone in a cemetery or war memorial monument will immediately show an increase in background as you get close. Natural background in a building from the stone, brick and plaster shows up quite clearly. It will even detect (though you need to sample for a few hours) the very low energy x rays emitted from a tritium keychain as the result of X ray fluorescence from the zinc sulphide phosphor. Smoke detectors and radium watches will drive it crazy with a red light and vibration warning (if enabled). It will show (again after a few hours of sampling) the peak from natural potassium 40 that is in food (and our bodies). It's a marvel of technology and if you have any interest in radiation, it's a terrific little gadget.

First impressions are that this is a very useful and versatile tool. Not used in a real situation yet but looks like its up to what it is designed for. Only mild constructive criticism - the menu that allows access to the different functions, I found a little awkward to access, plus no written instruction manual supplied, otherwise good value for money and i woul recommend.

The ability to create spectrograms of unknown samples places this device at another level compared to simple Geiger-Muller tube devices. While small it is a sophisticated analysis instrument, but it is the software that makes it stand out. I'm using the Windows PC and also iOS app. The mobile phone app is just excellent for work in the field. I've knocked one star off because my example 103 is way out of calibration and I will need to re-calibrate it (fairly simple task requiring access to a standard such as Thorium 232, but the info on the Radiacode website is not a great deal of help).

Muy interesante como gadjet científico. No tengo idea de como funciona el modo espectrograma.

Der Radiacode 103 überzeugt durch seine hohe Messgenauigkeit, kompakte Bauweise und die benutzerfreundliche App-Anbindung. Die Spektrometrie-Funktion liefert detaillierte Ergebnisse, die sowohl für Einsteiger als auch für erfahrene Anwender interessant sind. Lange Akkulaufzeit, regelmäßige Updates und eine hochwertige Verarbeitung machen das Gerät zu einer hervorragenden Wahl für die mobile Strahlungsmessung. Klare Empfehlung!

Vraiment parfait, pas de derive en temperature, la dose correspond. L'interface est tres bien, complete et simple. La taille du cristal etant seulement de 1cm3 la sensibilite aux hautes energies est tres faible mais on peut quand meme voir le potassium naturel a 1461keV et le 2614keV du thorium. Ca reste toutefois un appareil pour connaisseurs, vu son prix et sa complexite. A utiliser en complement d'un detecteur geiger qui permettra aussi de detecter les alpha et beta.

Fabulous device, even for casual hobbyists! Was able to measure radiation levels and review gamma spectrometry on several items. These included a "healing bracelet" I purchased at a rock and mineral show, two fossils and a uranium glass pitcher I picked up at an antique store. The bracelet and fossils were far more radioactive than I would have thought, so it was very useful in how I decided to store and display these items. It took a little while to figure out the gamma spectrometer function, but the manuals and app are easy to download, and the Bluetooth ios app readily connects when using an iPhone 15. Great value and lots of fun!! 5 Stars!!!

Works as expected still need to dive into it to get to know the details of the apparatus
