TO USE SHAKTI, YOU MUST HAVE A "Dr. Gauss" Gaussmeter. Information on how to order one on-line is at the bottom of the page.

What's a gaussmeter? It's a device that lets you measure the strength of a magnetic field. You have to make sure that the signals coming from Shakti aren't too weak, or too strong.

WE STRONGLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO USE THE "DR. GAUSS", "Gauss Master", or "Mister Gauss" GAUSSMETER -OR SIMILAR UNIT- Here are three links http://www.e-sci.com/genSci/6/1027/1056/10285.html http://www.lessemf.com/gauss.html This one had the best price last time I checked: http://www.lonestarspirits.org/store/sophistequip.html

WHEN YOU ARE USING THE "Dr. GAUSS", YOU WANT THE HIGHEST READING FROM THE LEFT SIDE TO READ IN THE RED (RIGHT) SIDE OF THE METER. (CLOSE TO 10 MILLIGAUSE) IT ONLY STAYS THERE FOR A FRACTION OF A SECOND. THE RIGHT SOUND CHANNEL WILL PROBABLY REGISTER A LITTLE LESS THAN TWO THIRDs OF THAT. THE RIGHT IS SUPPOSED TO BE FAINTER.

Here is a helmet being checked for volume using the Dr. Gauss. Notice that the meter is not centered over the coil. The Dr. Gauss's sensor is towards it's left side. Remember it can give you a false low reading, but never a false high one.
