There is this new piece of equipment called the mel meter and from my understanding it is a EMF meter and an ambient temperature gauge. It is also back lit so no more having to use those flashlights to see what your reading is. (That is such a pain to me. ) You can check it out along with other equipment at their website www.pro-measure.com

I own the Mel meter and have tested it. Here's my opinion:
The concept is great, but the performance is lacking. The unit has a dual function whereby the investigator should be able to monitor EMF & temp at the same time. The problem with this is that when both functions are engaged at the same time the response time (temp changes, EMF fluctuations) is delayed. After trial and error I found that the best use for this device is to have the setting on EMF (rapid) only and if you get a suspect reading then you engage the temp function to vaidate.

We like the MEL 8704R a lot! What tigerblane said is true, but you don't have to set it to read both, and it's not that slow. One thing he didn't mentio is that you ca set it to store your data and have a record of your highs and lows (range). The backlight feature, as well as haing an instant LED flashlight is nice too.

I use the mel meter all the time with both going at the same time and it is not slow to me. I really like the two in one. So much easier to carry and keep up with.
