Equipment used on our investigations.

Gauss Master Basic EMF meter
 
Relatively cheap and easy to use, this piece of equipment checks baseline EMF readings when we investigate a location. It operates in the 0 to 10 mG range.

Natural Electromagnetic Meter
 
This unit, currently the most expensive EMF meter in the BCP gear locker, measures DC electromagnetic fields only. DC fields only occur in nature, so anomalous readings detected with it are not coming from natural sources. It can be tricky to use, because it's easy to misinterpret the earth's natural electromagnetic field as a false positive reading. The natural EMF meter is extremely sensitive and has to be operated with great care.

Geiger Counter
 
Although it might be considered overkill, we at Boulder County Paranormal believe in gathering as much objective scientific data as possible when investigating a case. This device allows us to monitor levels of Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and X-ray particles at an allegedly location.

TriField EMF Meter
 
More advanced than the GaussMaster, the Trifield meter monitors AC magnetic fields, AC electrical fields, and also radio waves & microwaves. It costs ten times more than the GaussMaster, but is well worth it due to the versatile range of data gathering.

Remote Infra-Red Thermometer
 
This tool, accurate out to 500 meters, detects temperature variances (the classic "cold spots") in corridors and rooms. The device operates using a cone of IR energy.
