⚡ Stay ahead of invisible threats with precision you can trust!
The KKmoon Assembled DIY Geiger Counter Kit is a versatile nuclear radiation detector capable of measuring gamma rays from 20 to 120 mR/h and beta radiation counts between 100 and 1800 CPM. Featuring sound and light alarms, it supports multiple Geiger tubes and offers seamless integration with microcontrollers and PCs for real-time monitoring and advanced data analysis.

Very insensitive - could be faulty?
When connected to power this clicks very infrequently and seems far less sensitive than other Geiger counters I have used. I suppose it's to do with the tube used but as there are no instructions whatsoever I don't know if I could adjust the voltage to increase sensitivity. (If I understand Geiger Mueller tubes correctly they either strike or not, so probably not possible to adjust). I do have test sources in particular gas lamp mantles and these make it click a bit but as I say I wouldn't want to trust my life to this unit. Really disappointed.

Seems to work as advertised
Seems to work as advertised. Detects the harmless background radiation. I don't have any bigger sources to check so I'm not sure how sensitive it is.One thing to be weary of is that the geiger tube is barely long enough to slot into the slots on the board. It looks like the tube should be 5mm longer in order to have a more snug fit. Hence the 4 stars instead of 5. So if you're planning on moving this thing around a lot it may slide out. So far it hasn't though.

True random number generator.
Connected it directly to an interrupt pin on an ESP32 and now I have a random number generator.

Zero Instructions
Rubbish. Tube doesn’t fit board connectors as they’re too wide apart. Zero instructions and a QR that doesn’t work. Checking their website gives zero results. I don’t even know what voltage is required let alone how it actually works.
