Loading ...A dosimeter is a small pen-sized rod for your pocket to wear. It requires a base-station charger that resets the needle to zero. You wear it all day in known radioactive environments to determine how much radiation your body has absorbed. Again, not something you normally need for everyday use unless you are working at a nuclear plant to determine your total absorbed. Dosimeters are hard to find, some available from surplus Civil Defense outlets if you can find them. Again, not terribly useful for the average person. You need to know the human absorbtion limits and really should avoid the area if it is radioactive. Don’t go overboard buying all the equipment you don’t need unless you are working at a nuke plant! Your geiger counter is adequate to warn you of possible exposure danger, and to get out of the area.
