We're compiling information about the:

  • pros & cons
  • prices
  • sensitivity/limitations

about each of these techniques.

See the https://publiclab.org/wiki/hydrogen-sulfide-detection as well for more resources -- I've seen a few documented across the site!

Also see this post by @megan:

$20 a day from Safety Alliance in Farmington, (505)-325-7233 I have included this link to information on the Gas Badge Plus http://www.durawear.com/index.cfm/a/catalog.prodShow/vid/485/catid/145

That link is broken, but this worked: http://www.amsequipment.com/gas-detection-equipment/portable-monitors/gasbadgeplus

Also found this one, the MSA Altair, and a few others on the Duraware.com site above (although the others were over $1000)

And read about air grab sampling as the Louisiana Bucket Brigade and other bucket brigades do: https://publiclab.org/wiki/air-sampling
