Americium-241 is primarly an alpha emitter but it's decay products decay through beta and gamma radiaion.

What's funny is that there's a seller on ebay that was selling this device for $44 bucks before this recent natural disaster in Japan, and after it occured, she started them off as auctions and they're selling for over $100. Dammit!

Maybe cuz of Russian holidays.

@IntercityAPT The radiation source in this case is inside plastic, so it doesn't contaminate the geiger counter. The mantle has thorium dioxide powder on it which causes the mantle to glow brighly when used in the lantern, however it is slightly radioactive. Inhaling any powder should be avoided if used regularly, 'cause, well, it's radioactive.

Just wondering, doesn't a geiger counter get contaminated after several uses?

hello, can you please tell me where you bought this from? i cannot find it anywhere. and i really want to buy one.
Wondering, I thought americum 241 from smoke-detectors is alpha radiation? this geiger counter only detects gamma and beta radiation.
whats right or wrong....

You're right that geiger counter detects Beta and Gamma but the Americium 241 is emitting Gamma, Beta and also some Alpha rays.
