History & Expertise...
We've been offering KI and KIO3 since 1999, long before most
saw any need for it. We sell it to the Federal Government, military,
and many state and municipal governments, as well as to doctors,
hospitals and pharmacies. Also, tens of thousands of individuals
and families have bought KI or KIO3 direct from us via the internet.
We've invested heavily to secure the largest private inventory of
KI in the USA with over 15 million doses, currently, but still know
this won't be anywhere near enough in a future major nuclear
emergency. Nor, is enough of it likely to be exactly where it's
needed when the time comes, either, until the day every family
already has their own supply. Our popular informational FAQ site
is the 'Potassium Iodide Anti-Radiation Pill FAQ' seen at...
www.KI4U.com
We also show the public and govt agencies emergency alternatives
for the inadequate supply of available KI tablets on this page here...

Additionally, eight months prior to 9/11/01, we acquired from FEMA
over 100,000 Civil Defense radiological survey meters, dosimeters,
and geiger counters from the Federal Depot in Fort Worth, TX. That
required 12 tractor trailers to ship the 416 pallet loads down to our
warehouse/lab in Gonzales, TX. (We acquired them at auction, but
were told they were at one time even destined for a landfill!)
We are licensed and authorized to re-calibrate and re-certify these
instruments with our two high-range Cesium-137 calibrators here
and our lab staff of 6 trained & certified radiological employees.
(Total staff here is currently a dozen full-time, and 4 part-timers.)
We are the only private rad lab utilizing these unique calibrators that
were specifically made for calibrating all these Civil Defense survey
meters and dosimeters. These instruments require relatively high
levels of radiation to do so in conformance to the standards as set
forth by the State of Texas, FEMA, ASTM and the NRC, all of which
we adhere to.
These same-type Civil Defense survey meters are in current use
by thousands of Fire Depts, Haz-Mat and First Responders across
the country. We daily have state agencies and municipalities shipping
us their Civil Defense instruments to be re-calibrated, as well as
from the general public. We detail our calibration services here...
www.RadMeters4U.com/calibrate.htm
We created an extensive FAQ detailing the capabilities of these
instruments for emergency use, including correct meter selection,
on-line manuals and radiation basics. It is linked below and named:
'Civil Defense Rad Meters, Geiger Counters and Dosimeters FAQ'
Our inventory here represents the largest privately held source of
these Civil Defense instruments in the country. As we re-calibrate
these survey meters, geiger counters and dosimeters, we are making
them available, along with FEMA manuals, to government agencies
and the general public at the FAQ mentioned above, and linked here...

In 2002, we introduced an additional FAQ focusing on the effects
of nuclear blasts and fallout and the protective strategies families
can effectively employ. Free detailed info for DIY building of fallout
shelters and the on-line version of the Oak Ridge National Labs book;
'Nuclear War Survival Skills' can be found there. Also, sources for
'ready built' commercial versions, including our own design, can all
be seen at the 'Nuclear Blast & Fallout Shelters FAQ' here...
www.RadShelters4U.com
The fallout shelters clearly are not our fastest selling products, yet.
We often feel here like Noah building mini-arks, and until the fallout
begins to rain down, most folks won't take the need for one seriously.
Of course, most didn't take terrorism & KI seriously either, before 9/11.
But, that's OK, too, IF you have a below ground basement and IF
you learn now how readily you can make a corner of that into a truly
effective family fallout shelter. You'll be pleasantly surprised discovering
at
www.RadShelters4U.com just how little time/money/energy it really
requires to make that essential difference for your family survival.
Abandon any pre-conceived notions of nuclear un-survivability and
prepare your family now to live, when you discover the facts there.
In 2002, we also released a FAQ on MRE's (Meals, Ready-to-Eat) and
have here 180,000+ Entree's of this long-storage food in inventory.
This is the same as what our military are eating in the M-E right now.
The MRE FAQ, along with menu selections and pricing for them here...

At the end of January, 2003, we introduced at the National Health
Physics Society Annual Convention in San Antonio, Texas our new
product, the NukAlert™. This is a patent-pending, matchbox sized,
key-chain attachable, personal radiation monitoring and alarming
device. With a ten year battery it is always "ON" 24/7 continuously
monitoring the local environment of the user. Details of the NukAlert™
along with the history of its 16-month R&D coming to market is here...
www.NukAlert.com
Last week, we introduced our latest product, the exact-same chemical
detection mil-spec strips in use now by our troops in the Middle-East.
It detects, with color changing paper, nerve gases and blister agents.
We've sold it to govt First-Responders, Fire Depts, Haz-Mat teams,
and now, for the first time, to the general public here...
www.KI4U.com/M9_Chemical_Detection_Paper.htm
For much of the above, we are the sole public source. We also have
our acclaimed and detailed informational FAQ's on everything here.
Our product pricing is very competitive as we strive to assure that
more fellow Americans might then be able to afford these essential
family preparations.
We look at all of it like medical insurance, where you never acquire it
eagerly looking forward to getting to use it anytime soon, but glad to
have it, if it is ever needed! We tell our customers that we hope/pray
it all gets a chance to gather much dust upon their shelves for many
years to come! I've got a family and kids, too, and truly wish none of
this stuff was needed. I'd eagerly and quite joyfully go about finding
something else to do, if that was the case. Unfortunately, it is not.
Feel free to call or e-mail me, if any questions or suggestions.
Best Regards,
