  • 1st Light (Normal): Detects a Normal EMF field, which is always around us. Range: 0 to 1.5 mG.
  • 2nd Light (GREEN): Detects a Low Level EMF. Range: 1.5 to 2.5 mG.
  • 3rd Light (YELLOW): Detects a Mid Level EMF. Range: 2.5 to 10 mG.
  • 4th Light (ORANGE): Detects a High Level EMF field. Range: 10 to 20 mG.
  • 5th Light (RED): Detects an Extremely High EMF Range. Range: 20+ mG.

7. Дадаткі
