About Geiger Counter Shop
Geiger Counter Shop is an independent online shop that sells a single product: a yellow pocket Geiger counter. We explain what it does, where our information comes from and where its limits are.
Orders are open, and this page describes the shop and its product as they are today.
An independent shop with one product
We are an independent reseller, not the manufacturer of the counter and not a brand's own store. We chose to sell one device and to describe it precisely: a glass Geiger-Muller tube, listed by the supplier as a J321 type, a 2.4-inch color screen, dose rate in µSv/h, counts per minute, cumulative dose, a trend graph and two adjustable alarms.
Orders ship free from stock in the United States for US buyers, and from stock in the United Kingdom for UK buyers, with no customs step. Customer service works by email only, at contact@r36s-console.com, with an answer within 24 business hours. It is aimed at curious people, collectors of uranium glass and minerals, hobbyists and travelers.
Where our information comes from
Everything we publish about the counter comes from the manufacturer's spec sheet, the supplier listing and public sources, read on September 28, 2026. We have not run a hands-on test ourselves, and we say so. Manufacturer figures are labeled as such: a dose rate range of 0.01 µSv/h to 50 mSv/h and an energy response of 48 keV to 1.5 MeV.
We always give battery life both ways: the manufacturer states 30 days or more in long-life mode, while an independent test reports about 5 days in normal use. That test also measured about 20 counts per minute at background. The counter detects beta, gamma and X-rays but not alpha, and it has no Bluetooth and no app.
What the counter is, and is not
This is a consumer radiation detector for general information only. It is not a calibrated measuring instrument, not personal protective equipment and not a radon test, and its readings are indicative. If you see an unusually high or persistent reading, move away from the source, do not handle the object and contact your state radiation control program or the EPA. In an emergency, call 911.
Old objects such as uranium glass, some old uranium-glazed dinnerware and radium dials can make a Geiger counter react when held close. Keep them intact, never take a radium dial apart, do not serve food or drink in them and wash your hands after handling. If one breaks, ask your local authority how to dispose of it. Official reference figures from the EPA and the UK Health Security Agency are given as context only.
