The Radeye N is a pressurized He tube (I think).  We had a demo here a while 
ago.  It can store a few different calibrations to deal with differing neutron 
energy.  A step forward, but you still have to know the neutron energy where 
you are working for it to work best.

As I understand it.  Thermo has the Radeye neutron meter, but not sure what the 
detector is.  Looks promising but was waiting on energy response studies/report 
from testing they have been doing.  Seeing who will be the first in the 
industry to make the move from ye ole NRD probe.

Does anyone have, use, know of, or can convey rumors of a portable neutron 
instrument that uses a tissue equivalent proportional counter (TEPC) and is NOT 
a REM500 or REM402?
