does it also measure radiation levels

I don't think this has the capability and I am not sure it actually does accurately measures the waves I bought it for. I need to work with its little. More so let us hope. Someone with experience an help.Joe C.

I am assuming you are referring to chemical radiation like fallout since you said "also" It is very finicky and can get inaccurate reads by interference or random amplification and canceling behaviors among the various waves present in its location, but it does give an indication of the strength of wave activity in comparison to other nearby areas. An accurate instrument is much too sophisticated for a lay person to have as a consumer level product. I think they make instruments that detect the presence of chemical radiation, but this just claims to "detect" the presence of EMFs and provide a somewhat general level reading from room to room.

That would depend upon which type of radiation you are referring to. This does measure electrical radiation, such as power lines and so forth. As to nuclear radiation, I don't know. If you have it near a power station it starts to go crazy. If I walk down the street where I live I get a few readings, then when I turn a corner where there are a lot of electrical power lines, TV antennas it goes nuts.

No. It only measures surface temps. On a side note, my unit broke within an hour of delivery. I would not recommend this product.

It says it does and I use that setting, but I would not know how to really measure or verify this.

NO! Basically, if the question needs asking, then the answer is that it does not. It detects Carbon Monoxide and Methane (a component of natural gas).

Yes, it measures EMF from anything. If I set the meter to EMF and then put it down next to my cell phone (an Android), I see the meter increase as the meter gets closer to the phone. I also see the meter spike off the chart from time to time as the phone emits bursts of power for this and that. That's true for most anything that uses electricity, including other screen-based devices (monitors, etc.). The contradicting answers that you are seeing are probably because there are different types of waves to measure and different phones have different emissions; this device measures micro/radio waves and EMF. This device did measure micro/radio waves for my phone when I tried it, but I don't know if it's measuring the full emissions of the phone because the level registered when I did a test was very small (I put the meter down next to my phone and dialed another phone and stayed connected for a while). However, I haven't seen any consensus among scientific studies that those types of cell emissions are dangerous, whereas-though there is still some debate-some studies agree that high levels of EMF (around or above 4 milligauss/.4 microteslas) increase the risk of certain childhood cancers.

You are looking at a low-frequency EMF meter. It measures EMF from mains electrical devices and other (very low frequency) EMF sources. You can use this type of meter to check EMFs from mains electricity, power lines, high voltage lines, electrical installations, sub-stations and transformers, house wiring, domestic electrical appliances TVs, computers, office equipment, factory machinery, vehicles (cars, trains etc). This meter is not designed to measure ionizing radiation (x-rays and gamma rays), or radio-frequency / microwave radiation, unless specifically stated.

No, but its intensity does change depending on the amount of light that it is hitting the sensor.

No. This is only to find electromagnetic radiation from electricity running through wire. Like overhead power lines. You need a microwave radiation detector for wifi and cell phones. Like this one: Hf35c Rf Analyze (800mhz - 2.5 Ghz) - Perfect for Smart Meters Detection

I do know it measures the EMF radiation from Wi-Fi. I do not know the technical specs, however when I tested it in my living room (which faces the neighbor's smart meter) - the beeping on my Cell Sensor EMF Detection Meter just went to the highest danger level. Hope this helps.

It does, however, it doesn't have an adjustable emissivity setting like the Neiko does for measuring temperatures on different materials. It's about half the price, though, and accurate enough for measuring oven temperatures.

According to the manual, yes. I haven't used for that purpose yet but states it detects them all.

If you can get a connection, it will give you basic info only. It has gauges to measure different things, but I have not been able to get them to tell me anything.

This is based on a geiger-mueller tube detector, so it will detect alpha radiation as well as beta, x-, and gamma radiation. i would check the manufacturer website if I were you to verify the suitability.

No, It only used to measure electro magnetic radiation in radio frequency range such as radiation from microwave tower, Wi-Fi, Microwave oven, wireless communication etc.If you want to measure EMF for AC unit motors & other home motors, you need a meter which can measure EMF in power frequency such as Trifield 100XE meter. Thanks

Kari No it does not test actual radon levels , you will need toget a radon detector for that. This only test suction .it is used to test the fan in a radon mediation system .Hope this helps Tont

Thank you for your question. The device is able to detect ionizing radiation and store the readings up to 3 years for Beta, Gamma and X-Ray Radiation. If there is an Alpha radiation source in the object there will be Beta or Gamma decoys which the device will successfully detect. The radiation coming from the Fukushima is Beta and Gamma.

No. It reads the "black body" radiation from the first surface it encounters. I presume your cover is insulated so the temp measured would be that of the outside layer of the insulation. Use a temperature probe in your scupper that has a wire to the readout like they do for barbecues. Those even allow you to set alarms for over/under temp situations.Good luck!
