The only thing that would be nice would be the presence of some sort of protective case.

This is a well built instrument that works well. It is priced the same as SE International and International Medcom devices based on the same pancake sensor, but offers a more functional interface. The unit had a Duracell Procell alkaline battery installed which I replaced with an Energizer lithium battery to avoid alkaline battery leakage problems. Another review mentioned a nearby vertical board that could be damaged when changing the battery, but I didn't notice such a board on mine. I…

Excellent goods. PRM-9000 Understanding of Intended Use and Minimum Requirements .

Excellent product. PRM-9000 Knowing my intended use and my minimum requirements, I chose 3 similar products. The PRM-9000 outperformed the other two options due to its additional features.

Pros
  • Measuring range from 0.001 to 125 mR/h (0.01 to 1250 µSv/h) with a typical accuracy of +/- 10 percent
Cons
  • A newer model could have been chosen

Are there any disadvantages with this product?

There are no short illustrations in the guide to show you step by step. However, the manual gives you 11 steps on page 9. The first thing you have to do is…

Pros
  • LND 7317 US made 2" GM barrel; detects alpha, beta, gamma and x-rays
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
