Radioactive "health" pen from eBay.

There's a certain irony when something is being sold as a way to protect yourself from harmful mobile phone radiation, when the device itself emits much more harmful radiation.

After seeing The Thought Emporium's excellent exposé of the myriad of horrific pendants and bangles that contained radioactive material, I immediately rushed to eBay to buy one of the pens before they were banned.

It turns out I didn't need to rush. They're still there if you search for the magic keywords "nano wand". Here's a link, but seriously... Look, but don't buy.

The pens are filled with what appears to be thorium dioxide which is not something you want to breathe in or ingest. If you have a geiger counter and like radioactive stuff then by all means get one as a novelty, but store it somewhere safe and mark it clearly as radioactive. Guide cost is around $15.

In a way the metal body of the pen and usage makes it a lot safer than the horrible pendants and bangles made of thorium powder loaded plastic. Those items are being worn directly against the skin and could pose a long term health risk.

Given the apathy eBay has had to electrically dangerous stuff being shipped directly from China, I'd guess that these items will be available on an ongoing basis with new listings popping up when old ones are taken down. That's how it seems to work these days.

If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:-

This also keeps the channel independent of YouTube's advertising algorithms allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty.
