After the self-made Geiger M\u00fcller counter and the associated experiments, I noticed that there is one or the other radioactive element in our environment.<\/p>\n

With the SOEKS 01M Geiger counter, an industrially manufactured device, I have now again “scanned” objects in the area.<\/p>\n

\"IMAG1289\"<\/a>

SOEKS 01M<\/p><\/div>\n

Again, I realized that some of the old clocks in my collection are equipped with radium-painted dials. The SOEKS shows here a radiation exposure of about 1.11 microSievert per hour. The environmental load is displayed at approx. 0.14 uSv \/ h.\"IMAG1290\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But in my mother’s kitchen, I found a beautiful, colorful old vase that displayed about 10uSv \/ h. (The thing is now in the far corner of the cellar).<\/p>\n

It should be uranium paint. (To see orange \/ red painting in the video below)<\/p>\n
