Radiation Geiger Counter Effect on Your iPhone or iPad

Radiation and nuclear reactors are a hot topic in the news. These Zazzle Speck Case with a geiger counter effect offer a geeky solution to allaying unfounded fears of exposure to radioactivity when there's been a run on pocket geiger counters and you just can't lay your hands on a real one. If you are happy with an iPhone or iPad case that looks like one but isn't, then experiment with this design. Just set the indicator on the microsievert and millirem scale to a safe level, order and relax.




Radioactivity And Radiation Fallout Simulation On Your iPhone and iPad


The design features a radiation dosimeter dial with a scale in the range 1 - 100 microSieverts per hour (and the corresponding 1 - 10 milliREM dosage) as measures of radiation absorbed by the body, and a color scale from green to red representing the extent of exposure hazard. Over the dial is a blue indicator that gives a reading from the scale.

The case has a red brushed metal look and feel with simulated rivets along the sides, and a radiation sticker and red button below the radiation counter. All the elements that comprise the design are customizable and easy to remove or move around or replace. You may add your own text and images using the Customize It button (Click on an image above to go to the product page for customization and personalization options).

What is really cool is that the blue indicator can be set anywhere along the scale from safe and green to living dangerously in the red. Move the indicator to your preferred setting before ordering.

Please note that these Speck case designs are a simulation; they do not measure radioactivity nor do they emit radiation. The design is available on iPhone 3G, iPhone 4 and iPad Speck hard cases.

The design on the iPad was awarded a TBA (Today's Best Award) by Zazzle on April 1, 2011. 
(Not an April fool's joke)
