Key Chain Radiation Detector
The Model 901 Key Chain Radiation Detector for Upper-Range Radiation is for detecting dangerous levels of radiation. Small enough to attach to a key chain, the device operates non-stop, 24/7 and will promptly warn you of the presence of unseen, but acutely dangerous levels of radiation. Used nationwide by federal, state and local first responders, law enforcement and the Dept. of Defense, the device is the ideal solution for increasing individual security and awareness of radiological threats.
