Born Hunter 17,798 Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 It reduces the energy mate, but I'd rather have a foot of lead or tungsten that a foot of water for shielding. And I don't trust those f***ing badges one bit! Lol, I like to have a real time detector screaming at me to keep me on my toes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What sources are you working with, C60, IR192 ?..........f**k that lark, short term and out !! Edited December 6, 2014 by WILF Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Born Hunter 17,798 Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Mostly Cs137 but doing work currently with higher energy Co60 for iron ore logging in Oz. I'm only involved on the research side, day to day operations is someone else's job, so I can afford a bit more of a dose, lol. What you can't see can't hurt you... haha.
