AlphaHound AB+G
The 3-in-one Power House.
Officially out of pre-order! Lead time is currently 2-4 weeks.
Detect alpha, beta, and gamma radiation with full ABG separation in the same small and compact formfactor we love. Contains a CsI(TI) scintillation crystal for gamma sensitivity and <10% spectroscopic resolution! Use buttons to change modes, and audibly detect radiation interactions with the built in speaker. Designed to be robust and user-repairable. Ships with a charging cable, user manual, and a replacement Mylar card.
Complete separation of alpha beta and gamma radiation that fits in your pocket.
Know what you are detecting.
Alpha, beta, and gamma
Three scintillation materials, three Sipms, complete separation.
Sensitive
1.72 in² open detection area for alpha/beta, 14x18x4.5mm CsI(TI) scintillator for gamma.
Repairable
Designed to allow the user to fix the device using drop-in replacement parts.
Spectroscopic
CsI(TI) with a <10% resolution. Spectrum viewing on device, or downloaded to your PC.
How does AB+G stack up?
Compare the AB+G to the AB+ and the AB Lite to determine which AlphaHound is right for you.

Extras
Replacements, goodies, and gadgets to boost your detection toolkit.
Basic components needed to repair the most common fix the AlphaHound may need. Due to the nature of the aluminized mylar, it may perforate or tear causing a light leak. This kit includes:
3 Mylar Cards (two for use and an extra for backup)
1 New Gasket (to replace the previous compressed gasket)
1 Hex Key to remove the screws
Detect from a distance! This specialized boot allows you to attach your AlphaHound to any standard sized extension pole while keeping the back open for alpha/beta detection. Fits every model of AlphaHound. Telescoping pole optional add-on.
Compatible with all models of AlphaHound. Specialized boot designed to test samples at a known distance from the AlphaHound! Get reliable and consistent sampling with this handy little adaptation. Comes with one main sample tray and two extras.
