Scosche RDTX-PRO Radiation Detector

Scosche Industries has developed and is selling the RDTX-PRO Radiation Detector and app for the iPhone and iPod touch.

The RDTX pro empowers you to detect radiation levels with your iPod or iPhone so that you can take control of your well-being.



The detector needs no calibration and claims to accurately detect gamma radiation above 60keV with plus or minus 5% accuracy. It plugs into the iPhone or touch via the charge and sync port.

The easy-to-use Meter Display indicates radiation levels as being safe, elevated or dangerous.

The level readings can also be shared using Facebook, Twitter, and Google Maps to scare your paranoid friends.

Scosche RDTX-PRO Price & Availability

The Scosche RDTX-PRO will retail for $350 and will be available in September from Synexx in Tokyo Japan and $10 of that amount will be donated to relief and clean up efforts in Japan.
