I asked the security guys what it is....Here the answer.... the security company claims that
with this "super detector" you can detect all kinds of explosives (dynamite, C4, TNT, black powder etc..).
The detector model name is "GT 100" and costs PHP1.500.000 (USD 35,000).
Inside the rectangular compartment is a kind of credit card size sample card of the explosives type that
the device can detect.
The security guys really believe that this detector works. At least the cards are label with what it "should" detect...

What kind of security joke device is it? Has anybody have seen a similar detector?
Hi,
I think it's the same stuff of Quadro Tracker... just hi priced BS piece of junk !

There are scams like this in all the world... now it's mostly Asia... during olimpic games there where seen also

I think most buyers think devices really work.

Other just don't care: the scope is letting customers belive they are safe in that places... protected from attacks and the like... so are like a promo say... "visit our country... or our hotel... or our city...etc you'll be safe here!"

BS. There's no real security to that kind of attacks unless you're in a solid underground bunker... so it's just another illusion of marketing.

Kind regards,
Max
