This easy to solder kit can be built in an evening and it works just like you think it would; clicking and blinking in the presence of radiation. Is grandma&#8217;s dish collection radioactive? Do bananas give off radiation? Are your granite table tops giving off gamma rays? After you build your own Geiger Counter you&#8217;ll be able to find out! Serial logging function lets you easily track exposure over time and the mute button lets you silently detect radiation.
