het meten zal prima gaan maar zeker niet geschikt om LFG te meten en daarmee een richting te bepalen wat wij wel hadden gehoopt.

L’apparecchio lo considero un semi professionale, abbastanza semplice da usare, le istruzioni sono tutte in inglese quindi andrebbero tradotte almeno in alcune parti per avere un utilizzo più sicuro e certo.molto sensibile quando ti muovi nello spazio e ti avvicini nelle zone da rilevare conviene tenerlo fermo sulla parte interessata per avere il risultato giusto. molto interessante l’applicazione che ha che in uno spazio ti indica la direzione dove rileva l’alterazione elettromagnetica così da avvicinarti nella zona interessata.

I need more time to evaluate this instrument, but it is OK up to now. I am not very sure about the accuracy. Tell you later what I found.

I think Im inpressed with this MG-2000T. I said I think because Im new to this type of meter. Ive heard and read alot about EMF meters. But never seen one in person or used one myself before. I almost ordered one of the Bell-4190 gaussmeter’s but I figured since Im new to type of meter I would try something less expensive at first as well as Id have a second meter to compare reading later if and when I upgrade to a Bell.Im really more interested in locating the sources of the electro magnetic fields causing interference with distributed audio video equipment. Rather than the actual accuracy of the reading on the meter.In the first hour of having this in my hands I was able to learn the basic of the MG-2000T. And locate to linear transformers pluged in behind some furniture that was emitting high EMF and replaced the transformers with switch mode power supplies to illuminate the EMF‘s in that area. After further investigation. I found that the stud space adjacent to the transformers was were the distributed audio trunk line for one end of the house was ran.After changing those transformers out for switch mode power supplies the humming in speakers was almost completely eliminated. On that side of the house. So locating the source of interference alone I feel paid for this meter ten times over.As for features of the MG-2000T...Pro: The ability to switch between Tri axis and single axis.In Tri axis mode it display a combined total reading of X,Y and Z axis’s together. Good for finding general location of EMF sourcesIn single axis mode it displays readings for each axis individually. So you can see three sensor readings all on the display at one time. Making it easy to pinpoint the location of EMF sources.When you recall a reading from memory it stores both Tri axis and single axis readings with date and time stamps.Theres a Min/Max setting. Good to walk through a building to come up with A general reading.Con: There is a hold button and it does work. But there is not a back light display from what I can tell. Making the MG-2000T difficult to use in crawl space’s and attic’sWould I recommend the MG-2000T..... A big YES for any A/V technician that does any kind of troubleshooting.Also the The MG – 2000T uses inductors instead of Hall Effect sensors. This maybe a bad thing if you need to locate a DC EMF source. I haven't had it long enough to test DC.

It's OK enough - still would like to find tables to get real scientific measurements as to what is considered "unhealthy". Canada appears to regulate EMF exposure - need to research more. Nothing in our house was a big deal. EMF, like any other potential health risk, has been used to ramp up FEAR in order to sell these types of instruments and consulting that goes along with it. As an environmental consultant, I am hard pressed to find very many circumstances in the home (1987 vintage here) that would warrant a home owner to buy one of these instructments. In fact, I can surmise that the one I bought has been to a few homes via Amazon and returned after buyer measured plugs, TV, PC, meters, etc.

We purchased this product for the purpose of recording :LAM (Low frequency alternating current magnetic fields) for the Project Native EMF blog we run. This product is very easy to use and comes with two main reading options, milligauss and microtesla. We predominantly use this product to measure the LAM fields of both traditional and electric cars. We have found it to be very consistent with its measurements and due to the Tri-Axial detection mechanism it can be pointed in any direction and at any angle without a huge variation to the readings.It comes calibrated very well as we have compared it against other DC/AC Magnetic gauss meters and the reading only vary about about 3%. However its accuracy does decrease as it gets very close to the source of the field and in that regard it varies by about 20% in comparison to more expensive officially calibrated gauss meters. However due to the fact that most readings are concerned with the fields emitted further than 5cms away, this variation is less significant for most purposes.The meter is slightly larger than most alternative options however it comes with a convenient carry case. The display is also large and clear and uses LCD reflective technology and therefore the clarity increases with ambient light. It however does not have a backlit option and therefore is not great when used in the dark.We would rank this as a good quality intermediate LAM gauss meter however there are cheaper single axis gauss meters out there which are reasonably accurate and therefore useful for simple personal use.

Like many people, the first EMF meter I bought was a . It comes highly recommended by many vendors of EMF-related products and its Amazon product pages have lots of five-star reviews. However, my experience with it was not a happy one. This was mostly because the most popular Trifield model has a feature called "frequency weighting" that causes magnetic field readings to be multiplied by 2X or 4X if the meter detects high-frequency magnetic field radiation that's purportedly associated with "dirty electricity." Although my older house turned out to have a number of issues that caused low-frequency EMF, the Trifield's inflated EMF readings made it impossible to pinpoint the EMF issues so it was of no practical use. I ended up finding my EMF issues through other means such as tuning an AM radio to an unused channel and listening for humming or other interference that varied depending upon my physical location in my house. Regarding dirty electricity, I have had an experience with an electronics device that emitted _massive_ high-frequency interference most likely due to a failed filter capacitor, but otherwise my experience is that repairing causes of low-frequency EMF was adequate to alleviate my concerns.Therefore, when I spotted an article that recommended a close cousin to this meter versus the frequency-weighted Trifield, I decided to order one. I've been giving it a workout ever since it arrived.How does the LATNEX compare to the frequency-weighted Trifield? It is vastly superior in almost every way and with relatively little added expense! Its biggest advantage is that it provides _flat_ EMF readings in the low frequency range that seems to affect people like me the most. The word "flat" signifies that the readings are not multiplied or weighted. The effect is that the LATNEX meter typically reads 2X lower than the Trifield if the two meters are positioned side-by-side in the presence of a magnetic field. If the Trifield reads 3.0 mG, the LATNEX will read something like 1.5. What with the widely-held opinion that readings of 3.0 mG or above are unhealthy, this is a very significant difference. If I took the Trifield's readings at face value, I'd think that my house was an unhealthy EMF environment, but the LATNEX tells a very different story. One wonders how many folks have laid down big $$$ on EMF remediation products primarily because the Trifield showed multiplied EMF readings. If so, maybe those folks might have saved lots of $$$ if they'd had a flat EMF meter such as the LATNEX.The LATNEX's flat EMF readings make it a lot easier to distinguish EMF hotspots. With the Trifield, it reads equally high throughout my house, but the LATNEX's readings vary depending on its proximity to EMF sources such as switching transformers or power wiring. In one situation, the LATNEX showed a very high EMF level in the vicinity of a wall outlet. I unplugged the device from the outlet but the EMF stayed high. Remembering that there was another outlet on the other side of the wall, I carried the LATNEX over there and got the same high reading. More importantly, the reading 4' - 6' away from the outlet was elevated by a significant amount if the clock was plugged in. Unplugging a digital clock's wall-wart transformer caused the EMF reading to immediately go back to a more typical level (1.5 - 2.0 mG in that room). Since that outlet was less than 6' from my bed, I moved the clock to the other side of the bed where it's plugged into a different outlet that's several additional feet from my bed. I'd have never found this issue if I'd relied on the Trifield!The last advantage I'll mention for the LATNEX meter is the toggle button that lets you view the three axes--X, Y, and Z--independently. This is very handy for getting an idea of which direction an EMF source lies compared to the meter. In many areas of my house, this mode makes it very clear that the strongest EMF is in the ceiling which happens to be where most electrical wires are. Without this mode, I'd have no idea of whether the EMF source is above, below, ahead, or behind of me, but with it I can find the EMF source much more quickly!I am very impressed by the LATNEX meter. Using it has quickly put me at ease regarding the EMF health of my property and it has been useful for finding and correcting specific EMF issues. Highly recommended!!!
