Equipment used on our investigations.
E.M.F. Detector
An EMF meter is an instrument that reads the fluctuation in electromagnetic fields. It is believed that spirits will cause an increase in these fields in order to manifest.
MEL-8704 Meter
The Mel meter has quickly become a favorite for the team. Its ability to display EMF and air temperature reading on one screen is vital during an investigation.
I.R. Thermometer
We use IR thermometers to measure cold spots. There is a theory that in order to manifest, spirits draw on the energy around them, thus creating a cold spot.
Zoom H1
The Zoom series of recorders offer excellent sound quality with a recording rate of 24 bit/96KHz and directional microphones.
Zoom H2
The Zoom H2 offers the same recording rates as the H1, but has the ability to record in 4-Channel surround sound.
Digital Recorder
We use digital recorders to capture disembodied voices imprinted in an audio recording, or EVP. Wikipedia describes EVP as; Electronic voice phenomena (EVP) are electronically captured sounds that resemble speech, but are not the result of intentional voice recordings.
IR Cameras
We set up infrared cameras throughout the investigation site to monitor particular hot spots with night vision capability. The cameras are hooked up to a DVR so that we can review the video without having to have somebody monitor the cameras during the investigation.
4 Channel DVR
We now have a 4-Channel DVR. This piece of equipment allows us to hook up 4 IR cameras into it, and review the video during an investigation with the built in 7" screen.
Video Camera
We always try to walk around during an investigation with at least one video camera rolling, that way we have a better chance of catching personal experiences.
