Nice video explaining the 101 in simple speak. I've had mine a couple of weeks now and I cant get enough of it. I've been getting used to it by using it in conjunction with my Uranium Ore specimen from the Czech Republic. Brilliant little scintillator and the Map function was a great idea when designing it.

Just found your video and purchased one as soon as I watched, I'm pretty new to this subject / hobby and also purchased the GMC 600+ because I wanted something that can do wifi logging and pick up alpha, I did watch your video about the potential GMC issues so well see how that goes. Got the 101 since it looks like a great meter to just carry around all the time, and the spectrometer function looks fun to play around with. It will deffinitly be a very impatient couple months while I wait for mine.

@@SurvivingTheApocalypse Thanks for the insight. I’ve been looking for deals on the RAM-Gene but it’s super pricey and hard to find. The detector is huge and the cover blocks alpha and beta for a more accurate dose meter function so it definitely looks like a good one. I might have to settle for the GMC-600+ on price and availability though. I really want a Raysid but the lead time is many months.

Have you ever had it massively peak for a second or so? Earlier today mine was chugging along at 0.176 μSv/hour then it jumped to 10.5 and set off the second alarm, dropped back to ~1.5, then 0.320 then 0.000 before returning to the previous reading. It dropping back to 0.000 makes me think it's an error, but it was slightly disconcerting for a while given what's happening recently.
