Terms of sale

These terms apply to orders placed on the US store of Geiger Counter Shop. They cover what we sell, how prices and payment work, how delivery is handled and what the counter's readings can and cannot tell you.

Orders are open, and these terms apply to every US order placed today.

Scope, product and prices

These terms cover purchases made on the US store for delivery in the United States. We sell one product: a yellow pocket Geiger counter with a glass Geiger-Muller tube, a 2.4-inch color screen, dose rate in µSv/h, counts per minute, a trend graph, two adjustable alarms and a built-in 1,800 mAh battery charged over USB-C. The box holds the counter, a USB-C cable, the manual, an inspection slip and warranty card: no charger, case, lanyard or test source.

Prices are shown in US dollars and include free delivery. Where sales tax applies, it is added and shown on the payment page before you pay. The price that applies is the one displayed when you confirm your order. We run no promotions and show no crossed prices. Product information comes from the manufacturer's spec sheet, the supplier listing and public sources, all dated.

Ordering, payment and delivery

You order by adding the counter to your cart and paying on a secure Stripe payment page. Accepted methods shown there include Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay, Google Pay and Link, depending on your device. Your card details never reach this site. Once payment is confirmed, you receive a confirmation email with the details of your order.

Your order is prepared within 1 to 2 business days after payment, then delivered in 3 to 6 business days from a US warehouse, free and with no customs step. These times are indicative, not a guaranteed date. If we cannot ship within the stated time, we tell you by email and offer you the choice to cancel for a full refund. Returns follow our 30-day return policy.

What the readings mean

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.

The counter detects beta, gamma and X-rays; it does not detect alpha. On beta sources the µSv/h figure runs high because the tube has no beta shield, so read the counts per minute instead. Do not heat, pierce or leave the battery charging unattended, charge it only with a 5 V USB supply, keep the counter away from water (no water resistance rating is published) and remember it is not a toy.
