EMF Detectors

EMF (Electro-Magnetic Field) Meters are commonplace in nearly every paranormal group in the country, they have become a staple of the ghost hunting community, but how well do they work? Many ghost hunters say that they work wonders on investigations, while others call them utterly useless. So lets start with what exactly they read. EMF comes from just about anything electrical, microwaves, outlets, speakers, etc. along with very many appliances and in-wall wires/pipes. With all that taken into account, EMF detectors alone cannot do a very accurate job of detecting spiritual activity. But, in the paranormal community today, many EMF Detectors come with add-on devices to help aid with spiritual detection. A few good examples of this comes from Gary Galka of DAS Distribution (maker of the Mel-Meter), the Mel-REM comes with a sort of short range motion detector via a telescopic antenna, the Mel-ATDD comes with a device called Ambient Temp. Deviation Device, which is an advanced Temp. probe that emits sounds (and sometimes light) based on Temp. changes. So, EMF all by itself is a nearly dead technique in the paranormal community, with skeptics closing in on all the short ends in ghost hunting today, we can't afford to continue using outdated devices like standard EMF detectors. Am I saying EMF is useless, no. Am I saying it should be used only together with other devices or add-ons to the EMF Detector, yes. Luckly modern EMF detectors like the Mel-REM and Mel-ATDD are readily available at sites like http://www.ghoststop.com/ and http://www.theghosthunterstore.com/
