14 нояб. 2010 г. · The radiation from 1500dpm is equal to 675 picocuries. That is roughly equivalent to about 200grams of bananas. Seems harmless to me.

17 нояб. 2023 г. · My Geiger Counter reads about 100 CPM in most of the house. My room has been fluctuating from 50 CPM to around 100. It beeps when it hits 100. How screwed am I?

15 дек. 2023 г. · That's roughly 11 μSv/h, or about 70 times normal background radiation. What that equals to in CPM depends on your detector.

17 мая 2023 г. · People think even the slightest amount of radiation is deadly and catastrophic these days because that's how it's portrayed pretty much all the time.

22 мар. 2024 г. · Today I read online that any reading of 100CPM or more in a house hold is of concern. Well here I am sitting in my living room not near ...

26 авг. 2024 г. · The background radiation in my home and general area are consistently reading a CPM of 470+. From what info I've been able to find this is pretty dangerous for ...

7 апр. 2024 г. · CPM is entirely dependent on the detector. The only somewhat-meaningful way CPM could be used would be in relation to background radiation.

22 авг. 2024 г. · Don't worry too much about clicks per minute. The GMC 600 detects alpha, beta, and gamma. However, alpha is basically harmless to humans.

12 июл. 2020 г. · Is keeping a radioactive sample (roughly 200 cpm, mostly gamma) about 10 ft from frequently used living space safe?

1 окт. 2023 г. · This equates to 84 millisieverts per year, close to the level that has an increased risk of cancer associated with it. The radium at 10k CPM has ...
