The brand responded that steaming hairy crabs caused a nuclear radiometer alarm sound
According to a report by Wen Wei Po, Ms. Xu from Shanghai recently steamed a pot of hairy crabs at home and took out a nuclear radiation detector she purchased on an e-commerce platform. However, the alarm kept ringing and the dose exceeded the limit frequently. Ms. Xu had no choice but to throw away the hairy crabs. The next day, Ms. Xu accidentally aimed the detector at her daughter's belly, but the alarm sounded again. Ms. Xu then suspected that this nuclear radiation detector was not worthy of its name.
On the 2nd, a reporter from Upstream News conducted an interview on this matter. The customer service of the company's Tmall flagship store stated that it may be due to the leakage of inert gas inside the instrument causing abnormal detection. The company's after-sales staff stated that this situation occasionally occurs and usually customers are exchanged.
The reporter found that Ms. Xu used a FNIRSI brand nuclear radiation detector. According to its official website, there are currently two major sales platforms: JD flagship store and Tmall flagship store. Taking the Tmall flagship store as an example, the price of a single nuclear radiation detector is 269.1 yuan, and the price of a set with a formaldehyde detector is 422 yuan. The data shows that the brand has good sales, with over 10000 people paying. The Tmall flagship store has shown that a deposit is required for purchase, and the final payment will not start until September 30th. Delivery will only be arranged within 20 days after the final payment is made.

Regarding Ms. Xu's use of the brand's detector to detect the alarm sound on hairy crabs and her daughter's belly, the customer service of the flagship store said, "We have also learned about this news, and our analysis shows that it should be the leakage of inert gas inside the Geiger tube that caused the detection abnormality." The customer service said, "Ms. Xu's product was not purchased through official channels, but should be sold by second-hand scalpers, and we are not sure about the quality." Regarding whether the detector can detect nuclear radiation, the customer service stated that the measurement error of the product is about 10%. ".

The upstream news reporter then contacted Shenzhen Finis Technology Co., Ltd. through the after-sales hotline. A company after-sales staff member explained, "The reason for this situation may be that the glass of the detector shattered during transportation, and the voltage of the internal leather tube was relatively high, which caused it." The staff member said that similar situations have occurred before. "This is an isolated situation, and we usually exchange products for customers."
According to the official website of FNIRSI, the company was established in 2016 and has two major production bases in Shenzhen and Cixi, Zhejiang. It is worth mentioning that the company issued an official statement on its official website on August 30th, stating that some institutions have recently used the company's authorization to fraudulently obtain payment for goods; Selling company equipment on online sales platforms, but the actual shipment is not the company's nuclear radiation detector; Some even use the name of reselling Geiger counting tubes in WeChat groups or online sales channels to deceive consumers into obtaining payment, reminding them not to be deceived.
