SCIENCEFARE A skeptical, but loyal old dog United States of America FIESTAWARE Shards - 4 Sq. Inch - Geiger Counter Test Source - 1700-3400 CPM USED Attention eBay: This item is completely legal to possess and to sell, and is in full compliance with US law, USPS regulations, and eBay's Hazardous Material Policy. The amount of hazardous material in Fiestaware pottery is very small. Geiger counters are not just a neat item to have around for hobby use, they may also be a necessary item in today's increasingly nuclear world. Testing them to ensure they work can be a problem if a readily available radioactive sample isn't available. Offered today is a low-level radioactive source that can be used to test geiger counters. These are chips/pieces of genuine vintage red Fiestaware. Older Fiestaware was produced with a uranium oxide in the glaze, and the red color is particularly "hot" compared to the other Fiestaware colors. Each offering is for a minimum of 4 square inches of Fiestaware. You might receive one piece, you might receive 2-5 pieces. Whether you receive 1 piece or several pieces, you are guaranteed to get at least 4 square inches of radioactive red glaze material. Each package of Fiestaware chips I have produces between 1700 and 3400 CPMs on my two Geiger counters. The material you receive will probably produce an average of 2400 CPM on your equipment. Your CPM reading may be slightly higher or lower depending on the sensitivity of your Geiger counter. This sample emits small amounts of alpha, beta, and gamma radiation and may pose a very slight health risk if improperly stored or handled. It will be shipped in compliance with USPS postal regulations, which permit the shipment of pottery and minerals below specified activity limits. This item meets these requirements and is specifically allowed by eBay's Hazardous Material Policy.
