"With this fantabulous device, you can detect radiation around you. It bleeps red, then yellow, then green as you get closer to the source. Who knows what you might find? Not available any other way!"
Every purchase will give 1 item.

The Geiger Counter is an unsplicable hand item. One can be purchased from the Store for 25,000 gems.

Function

When equipped, the item may emit one of these three different colored rings, or none at all, which tell how far the player is from the source of radioactivity in the world:

No rings - Very far.
Red rings - 15-30 blocks away from the source.
Yellow rings - 10-15 blocks away from the source.
Green rings - 6-10 blocks away from the source.
Rapid green rings - 0-6 blocks away from the source.

Once the player stands still on the source of radioactivity, the item they have found will automatically go into their backpack. If the player's inventory happens to be full, the item will be dropped on the tile they are standing. The player will then receive the Irradiated mod for half an hour and their Geiger Counter will turn into a Dead Geiger Counter.

The list of all possible rewards can be seen below. Each section is sorted from the most common to the rarest.

GEIGERHILLS Limited Reward

Uranium Block (doesn't use up the Geiger Counter's power, but doesn't count for quests either)

Trivia

When the item was originally released, players could only get Radioactive Chemicals from using a Geiger Counter. During the Crystals update, crystals became possible drops, along with other items.
As of Cinco De Mayo Week 2017, a Geiger Counter can only be used in regular worlds of size 60×100. Therefore, it cannot be used in worlds that have been modified in size.
During a Night Of The Comet (or in a world with an active Weather Machine - Comet), all Geiger Counters will emit green rings only since the comet messes up with their reading due to cosmic radiation. If a player still manages to find a radioactive item in spite of these hindrances, they will receive the Atomic Luck achievement.
There is a chance that upon using a Geiger Counter during a Geiger Day, the H.R. Geiger Supervillain will be summoned.
Geiger Chargers take twice as long to charge a Geiger Counter.

+==Trivia==
+*When the item was originally released, players could only get [[Radioactive Chemical]]s from using a Geiger Counter. During the [[Crystals]] update, crystals became possible drops, along with other items.
-When a [[Dead Geiger Counter]] is held, players will have an effect called: ''"Charging Geiger Counter"''
+*As of [[Cinco De Mayo Week/2017|Cinco De Mayo Week 2017]], a Geiger Counter can only be used in regular worlds of size 60×100. Therefore, it cannot be used in worlds that have been modified in size.
+*During a [[Night Of The Comet]] (or in a world with an active [[Weather Machine - Comet]]), all Geiger Counters will emit green rings only since the comet messes up with their reading due to cosmic radiation. If a player still manages to find a radioactive item in spite of these hindrances, they will receive the ''Atomic Luck'' [[Achievements|achievement]].
+*There is a chance that upon using a Geiger Counter during a Geiger Day, the [[Villains|H.R. Geiger Supervillain]] will be summoned.
+*[[Geiger Charger]]s take twice as long to charge a Geiger Counter.
+==Gallery==
-After finding the source, players will have an effect called "''Irradiated''." This means that they won't be able to find any radioactivity for 30 minutes. At the same time, your Geiger Counter will be replaced with a [[Dead Geiger Counter]]. During [[Geiger Day]], the "''Irradiated" ''mod only lasts for 15 minutes.

+pss6s.gif|The message which appears when a player manages to find a radioactive item.
-Note: If the [[Geiger Counter]] is during the [[Night Of The Comet|Night of The Comet Event]], it will always emit green rings but not the rapid version of it, because the comet's radiation is messing up the counter. If players manage to find one, they will get the [[achievements|achievement]]: Atomic Luck.

-[[Geiger Counter]]s charge 1% every 20 seconds (31 minutes and 20 seconds for 100%). During [[Geiger Day]], it is only half the time. They do not require movement to charge.
-== Trivia ==
-* During [[Cinco De Mayo Week|Cinco de Mayo]] of 2017, a change was added that only worlds with an irregular size (eg. TINY) would not have any sources of radioactivity, rendering them useless for Geiger hunting.
-* When the item was originally released alongside the Superhero Pack, players could only get [[Radioactive Chemical]]s.
-* Players can use [[Hot Chocolate]] on themselves to remove the Irradiated effect and charge the Geiger.
-* [[Geiger Charger]]s take twice as long to charge as charging while holding the [[Geiger Counter]].
