Will the RadDetect give false alarms due to temperature changes and static electricity like other keychain detectors?
No, it won’t sound a false alarm. The RadDetect uses the most recent innovations in radiation detection technology and does not use older CDS cell technology like some other commercially available units. Will the RadDetect function after being subjected to an EMP (electromagnetic pulse)? The RadDetect has been tested and will function like any other small electronic device after being subjected to ground-level EMP and High-altitude EMP (HEMP). The RadDetect was tested with both a Marx Bank Generator and Voltage Gradient Tests up to 145 KeV and exceeds MIL-STD-461D specs. Note: A dirty bomb will not emit an EMP. How is the RadDetect calibrated? The RadDetect sensor is tested with a small Cesium source and a DSO to ensure disintegrations are detected. Then, the sensor is subjected to low-energy x-ray radiation to determine the sensitivity to a source that would be moderated (a Beta source in a steel jacket for instance). A program, uploaded to the RadDetect through a programmer’s port, t
