Folks, I'm a retired nuclear engineer. Eric is right. Give a listen.

[@thinkingofothers353]

Yes...everyone THINK GET ONE NOW....be ready now..

[@philholman8520]

Thank you, Eric! I took your advice. I have bought the same from Amazon. It cost me £100 and will go with all the other prep stuff I have. The wife doesn't know! She would call in the mental health services to take me away. I have also made and kept a journal with all my reasons, why's and wherefores, so that, when I kick the bucket, ain't long now, the grandchildren will get a little support from this old soldier! God bless you and yours! Stay safe! 💞🙏👍✌️🇬🇧

[@thinkingofothers353]

Friends even get your friends or family to go in on buying one...just do it now...

[@brucethomas6296]

You don’t know how much I appreciate your great explanation ! Very informative and simple to understand !

[@BigBlue1026]

I bought a Geiger counter about two months ago and after testing that it worked I put it in a faraday bag and it sits in my safe. Knowing that I'm getting too much radiation won't help me as I have nowhere else to go, but if I survived a detonation it would be nice to know when it's safe to go out the door and also to check foods for radiation levels. God help us I hope none of us ever need to use it.

[@geraldc867]

What I was taught in physics in college about radiation and the body is this: our cells are randomly turning cancerous naturally, at a slow rate, slow enough for our immune system to detect and destroy before they spread. But with high amounts the radiation damaging cellular DNA, the number of cancerous cells overwhelms our immune system and then they take hold and grow at a phenomenal rate. This is generally how radiation works to cause cancer, but not how all cancers work.

[@BadMoonRising777]

When it comes to gamma radiation, unless you in an underground bunker with 3’ of compacted dirt around you……. Listen to what he’s saying as is correct. I was on the nuclear load team in the Navy, I can tell you firsthand he is accurate.

[@micklaws5520]

Covered a lot of this in NBC Warfare classes in the Navy. Very good information sharing Eric

[@normshafer2243]

Eric, thanks for the video. My wife got me one of these for Christmas because it was on my wish list. I am interested in watch repair and recently found some old dollar pocket watches that actually say RADIUM right on the dial. All the best, Norm in Arizona

[@thinkingofothers353]

Great...your wife is very wise....everyone please take the advice and get one now...

[@BadMoonRising777]

The collision of an electron and a positron yields two 0.511 MeV gamma rays. Positron gamma radiation can penetrate through inches of iron, concrete, wood, plastic, water, etc. hope this helps, much love countrymen.

[@mammaubear8647]

I’m about to watch this….today I had a nuclear stress test done today and happened to remember I bought this device a year ago at your recommendation. I was shocked that it emits signal of 51,158 cpm over my liver and 15,145 cpm over abdomen, 8,835 cpm over my heart. When I walk out of the room it’s in it takes about 1 min to go to silence with 0 cpm. “They” said the isotope injection goes away 24-72 hours. I didn’t even realize this was a nuclear test till half way through. Doing my best to detox as fast as I can through this night. Now I’ll watch this video. Thanks for providing it. ❤

[@mammaubear8647]

Question: Sooo….what is the CPM counts per minute in relation to Sieverts?

[@Gina-de8gb]

Thank you for the teachings Eric

[@thinkingofothers353]

Great...let us all invite everyone to come view Eric's channel....learn now to be of help to yourself and loved ones.....

[@GeigerCounterVirtualMuseum]

My wife likes this one, mainly for the card. I like my old vacuum tube devices 😊

[@peachBloom]

You and me are the only two people with vacuum tube devices, lol! I thought I was the last one 😊

[@ericwhitfield8475]

Thanks Eric I just bought one from Amazon 👍

[@spaceprepper3657]

I have one exactly like that one you have. May the good Lord watch over you and your family and friends. Peace and Love 😊

[@anns8893]

Eric, I will meet our Heavenly Father if this happens,Paradise there. We live in a cabin with a metal roof, nothing fancy. I am not going to worry about that. We appreciate your knowledge. Thank you!

[@arminiuschatti2287]

Your Self-Preservation instinct is much stronger than you realize.

[@jaysbaby2012]

Only $128....not a bad price....Thank you Goshen Prepper.

[@jerrybailey5545]

Mine went nuts when a friend stopped by after blood work. The radioactive dye they injected him with made the counter jump over 700 from 15 feet away.

[@leopardwoman38]

Wow!

[@philholman8520]

Love the new hair cut! 🙏👍✌️🇬🇧

[@wolf198425ify]

Thanks for showing how to use it. I will order mine as well to go with my bug out since I’m a truck driver. I’m all ways looking forward to the next video for something new to learn. Ps . I went to NY prepper and never chatted in his live but was block. I’m sure because I follow you. But I’m with the Goshen family . The family is so helpful and nice in the chats.

[@Zox604]

I have old school Geiger counters. Two different from former Yugoslavia JNA and one from former Soviet Union. All in working conditions.

[@222mmax]

Thank you brother. God bless you

[@gregoutdoors7]

Thanks Eric, I ordered the GMC-300S model due to budget, it was $54 on amazon. It’s not as good perhaps as the 320 model but from the many videos I’ve viewed on it it looks like it’ll be good. My wife and I have been preparing for years now but anything nuclear has been our weak link and this geiger counter is the first step to correcting that. Anyway, thanks for motivating me to get one 👍🏻😊

[@1lyxomae372]

Hello Brother God Bless u Have a Bless Newyear. KC from Kentucky Thanks doe Radiation info

[@ultramagapatriot5874]

HAPPY NEW YEAR ERIC & FAMILY

[@Buzzy-bm6bv]

Wonderful presentation. Thank you very very much.

[@judyluchies2492]

Thank you , great information 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻♥️thanks I got a gieger counter 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@cathybestlercurtis]

Don't have questions now. Sure to have questions "later!"

[@heatseekerbus]

Thanks

[@mr.microcuries2078]

Remember that the detector you have has only around 1% efficiency at any distance greater than a foot from a source. Also the reference card can be extremely confusing and is not always correct as it is highly dependent on the source. Overall good explanation but their is a whole lot more to it. Also remember that the time of how long you are exposed is also very important.

[@jsunhack]

Lamens terms is all we need, not a bunch of proprietary talk brother.

[@user-li7lt2wq5c]

Is the device E.M.P. proof? Say you had the device in a farady bag, a nuclear event occurred, how much time would be safely needed before the device could be used (and hope another E.M.P. event didn't happen)?

[@claytonb3044]

Great question? Eric?

[@jimfreyler2944]

Question - it's battery powered, rechargeable by USB port. Once the grid is down how are you going to charge this thing? How long does a charge last for?

[@jsunhack]

Get a solar charger. Cheap easy. Handheld one is 30 bucks

[@ultramagapatriot5874]

Just get a solar charger to recharge it or you can charge from your car with a phone charger

[@jimfreyler2944]

thanks for that@@jsunhack

[@jimfreyler2944]

thanks @@ultramagapatriot5874

[@outbackeddie]

Here's an interesting tidbit: Only 1% of radiation will make it through 25 inches of Earth and only 1% of radiation will make it through 18 inches of concrete. Also, radiation decreases with the squre of the distance from the radiation. So at 1 foot you get 100% of the radiation. But at 2 feet you only get 1/4th. And at 3 feet you only get 1/9th. And at 4 feet you only get 1/16th. Lastly, radiation intensity decreases with the passage of time so that every 7 fold increase in time radiation will be reduced by a factor of 10. So at 7 hours the radiation will only be 1/10th of what it originally was and at 49 hours it will be only 1% of what it originally was. Increase time, distance, and shielding and you just might survive your radiation exposure.

[@jsunhack]

Do a video on connecting to your computer. I had mine in my pocket at grocey stores and seafood freezers were kinda high. I went to 3 stores in town, same thing. What dies this mean

[@peachBloom]

Seafood is radioactive. Did you know that in the last months of 2023, that Japan has started dumping radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean from the 2011 Fukushima meltdown? They were storing more and more water over the years to continue to keep the rods cool. They ran out of space and storage tanks, so they're releasing radioactive water, contaminating fish! Even China condemned Japan for this!

[@mariarogers9964]

My husband wants to know if it picks up quarks and super quarks, Jk, great information as always Eric

[@cherieweber9468]

I wonder if a less expensive one works as well

[@darrinevans6858]

I’m in Australia that model is a bit expensive to get here. Amazon has other brands/models. Would other brands be ok or is this particular model / brand what you recommend?

[@DrWondertainment821]

Unrelated but you can make a radiation detector with a box, dry ice, and rubbing alcohol to visualize the path of radioactive particles. It's an awesome project if you have kids.

[@hildaraaaserude8303]

Where can you get one of those radiation meters at

[@DrWondertainment821]

@@hildaraaaserude8303 You'd have to make it. There's videos on it that will probably be better to explain just with the visuals but you get a box and put sponges on the inside of that you spray with rubbing alcohol then put in on top of dry ice. It gets so cold that the alcohol can't condense into vapor like at room temp until it's agitated by a decayed particle and the alcohol condenses in the trail. It's actually cool because you can visually see the straight line vs corkscrew shape of beta vs gamma radiation.

[@nevertolatetoprepare2802]

It's called a cloud chamber. As you said, an awesome project for kids.

[@DrWondertainment821]

@@nevertolatetoprepare2802 Ah that's rights, I totally forgot the name of them. Definitely an awesome kid's science project.

[@susanerinfret2605]

Hi ! I Am stubbern or..but QUESTIOÑS: 1- if you put it inside and the machine goes wild,does it mean that the radiations are inside or out ? 2- IF there are some radiations at that windows and it's inside,does it mean that it's in all the house and at the same degree ? Then what can we do? 3- we have a fire place and 2 ventilateurs,1in à bathroom and à stong one in a big room to take outthe cigarette odors and other. Do we have to try to close those because the 3 things go outside ! Thank you for your help every day and I hope some answers but where ? 😘 We have

[@rebeccaknighten4519]

Can stored canned food absorb radioactive fallout too? I’m assuming so

[@mburton2402]

What do you think the probability of a radiation incident is compared to an EMP incident?

[@billbuyssilver76]

Do we have to keep this in a Faraday Cage ? What happens if we have an EMP strike?

[@SheepleHunter77]

Old microwaves are the best cages. You can get them at yard sales and second hand shops. They don't even have to work, as long as they are structurally sound.

[@terrysitar3054]

So you can place your batteries in a microwave and be safe?

[@SheepleHunter77]

​@@terrysitar3054 Yes. Any electronics will be safe from an EMP in a microwave.

[@fordy9erfan]

If we experience nuclear war in USA will canned food be safe? As long as we are not directly impacted.

[@jsunhack]

Tell me why I don't need a high range gieger counter and not this one? I bought it and was told it's no good because it's low range.

[@GoshenPrepping]

There was a guy on Canadian Prepper who put out bad information about these geiger counters, because he was trying to sell his own at an astronomical price. These low level ones are perfect for those trying to stay safe in their basement or apartment after a nuclear event.

[@jsunhack]

@GoshenPrepping the high range unit is only $165. I Watched that guy too. It wasn't him. You are/ were in the milita, y a nuclear expert, right? This guy was saying the minimum reading would peg these meters if a nuclear event was in the area and would be no good. It's been a while since I saw the info, or I could give you a reference. I don't want to discredit anyone. I just want everyone and myself to be the safest possible without spending an arm and leg. Eric, you are great, that's why I'm asking you in a forum. If a nuclear event happened, what minimum Seiberts would we be looking for. I hope I spelled the units correctly.
