Just stumbled upon the new radpro 3.1.1 release, looked for my FS-5000 and did the upgrade.

For the last updates I had to open the device, connect UART and use a CLI tool. Now radpro has a web flasher and can flash over USB, so this was just plugging in, pressing start and waiting a few seconds.

This is such a niche project and the author keeps doing incredible improvements.

First fully assembled and fully operational unit. I have a list of improvements to make to the case, but everything fits inside and power is routed between the boards. This is reading real data now. #GeigerCounter

Case is coming together nicely. Maybe I shouldn’t have prototyped it in red though. Getting some pretty lively readings! #GeigerCounter

First completed draft of the case design for the #GeigerCounter is done, and going on the printer to check for fit (and printability).

Case design is coming along. I went with complicated but I think it will be worth it. Working on shadowline mating faces now I think I have most of the interior fit done.

@ai6yr What kind of calibration can be done? I TLDR manuals, would want to knowdynamic range, from minimal baseline sensitivity to max usable input.

My #geigercounter fell out of my backpack.

And I know I'm going to earn an audible eyeroll if I ask my colleague if it maybe is rolling around in his trunk. 🥴

☢️ Radiation monitoring
Today's reading: 0.26 µSv/h

Scale:
< 1 µSv/h – don't worry
1–10 µSv/h – OK briefly, not long-term
> 10 µSv/h – take action (limit time)
> 100 µSv/h – genuinely dangerous (leave)
> 1000 µSv/h (= 1 mSv/h) – high risk for longer stay

What I measure:
– gamma (γ) radiation
– beta (β) particles
– X-ray radiation
