Anyone interested in getting a Geiger Radiation Meter for checking your lume?
A local school is being liquidated and they have
4 Geigers on auction - current bid is $71
If members are interested in splitting the lot I can arrange delivery.

I would imagine as any sensor would but aren't they able to pick up radium on a watch?

I bought one of those portable iphone smart Geiger devices that connect to the microphone input. It seems to work pretty well.
Here is a reading for one of my radium lumed watches.

I had no issues with customs. It came in standard cheap chinese plastic package.

hi mel, i mean to say industrial type geiger counters would attract attention through customs.
the small iphone type geiger counter is ok.
a search on ebay turns up lots of geiger counters.
