Product Description
From the Manufacturer
The Ghost Meter has been calibrated to ignore the extremely subtle EMF emissions surrounding the human body, yet is still sensitive enough to detect the small, distinct, erratic EMF energy fluctuations frequently found at reputed haunted locations. The Ghost Meter provides three corroborating indicators of EMF emission strength. A needle based display, LED lights, and an adjustable audio signal. The response time of this meter is excellent, easily outperforming more expensive EMF meters. It can also be operated in silent mode so it doesn't interfere with EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomenon) recordings or distract other investigators during an investigation. Compare the value this meter offers compared to other brands. There is no other offer that comes close to providing these levels of features and performance for the price. You've seen television ghost hunters use similar detectors. Now you can get your own and start investigating the unknown.
Please note: this product is intended to measure electric fields, and does not detect nuclear radiation.

I have this in my arsenal of tech toys as well as a K-II. I tend to use this EMF meter more. Reasons why are for the simple fact that any fluctuation detected on the high scale will light up the top of the device like a Christmas tree. This is handy for doing an investigation in the dark. Something else that I really love is the fact that it has a speaker output with a volume control. As far as it's sensitivity, it's just as sensitive as a K-II meter yet you can buy this for half the cost.

Not a Scientific Instrument for trying to prove something Scientifically
October 29, 2010
First off to all the "Ghost Hobby Hunters" let me state my qualification for this review. I run a business which custom develops and manufactures various electronics for federal agencies that require tolerances so precise most large companies don't want to deal with it.
I have a family member who has also been swept up in the whole ghost hunting thing and purchased this meter. After showing me a few videos of "possible" activity based on strange readings from this meter I asked to borrow it for a few days. At first it seemed decent (for the price) as far as accuracy. When swapped out the battery for one aprox. 15% drained (which is about what you would have with a few hours of use) the accuracy range dropped to 8%-30%. WOW! I also found several spots on the board where the voltages became erratic with used batteries. At this point I decided to put it up against a few AlphaLab Gauss Meters (ranging in price from $400-over $1500) and in my opinion this meter only gets aprox. 40% to 70% accuracy.
Now before the fanatics start getting mad let me make a point. I don't consider myself a "Paranormal" type but it has caught my attention especially after my father died from ALS. I have been asked by a friend of mine to join their group on a few cases in which I was shocked to find some of the other members included a retired Bechtel physicist, DSS agent, and a few other scholars. For me it seems intriguing to think about and it does need more research from the scientific community. Having said that it also seems obvious you would want any evidence acquired accurate and UNDENIABLE. This meter in my opinion this meter is far from accurate and should not be used for scientific proof.
If this is just a hobby kind of thing and you are into paranormal stuff for excitement than it is probably good. If you are taking this kind of research seriously than you should consider a Gauss Meter similar to the one below.

A fun thing.
I bought it just to experiment. No spooks, but I did find a Hunter air purifier I kept by our bed was bathing half of the bed in very strong EMF when it was on. Read more

Finds EMF, but not precisely
I bought this to measure EMF (electro magnetic fields) in my home.....not for ghost-busting.
It will pick up EMF, but only seems to go from zero to all-out (5... Read more

This is a fun and functional product. I don't know if the sensor is actually finding ghosts, but it does sense the fluctuations in emf. Read more
