    If you lose something small in the carpet, put a mesh (like pantyhose) over the end of a vacuum hose to try and suck it up, and hold a paper or something under so if you do find it it won't fall back in.

    Diamond and Moissanite will test as diamond on that cheap tester because Moissanite is also a diamond that is man made. My advice? Have it tested by reputable Gemologist even if you have to pay a little money. Errors can cost you hundredfold. Large Jewelry shops may have good Gemologist on site. I do this for decades and each time I have double and triple checked before the Gem leaves my hands.

    You can actually use it for any gemstone. Set the green bars at 4 and test it on a real gemstone and the bars will go up to 7 +!

      A little word of caution. I too appreciate the effort, but I must point out that his tests are not conclusive. That particular tester is going to separate 2 types Diamonds from non-diamonds. Moissanite is a man made diamond. Yes, it is diamond, with hardness of 9.25 on Mohs scale, Harder than any Gem except Natural Diamond, that is 10 on the same scale and the hardest substance in known Universe. Natural Diamond measures in thousands, yet the man made one measures in hundreds.

      Yes, I did some research on that and moissanite has only been used since about 1994 so it's still good for vintage and antique pieces which suits me.

      It’s hard to say. The fact that it went all the way up is a good sign but this detector is really designed only for diamonds. I’d take it to a jeweler that you can trust.

    Thank you. I'm thinking of buying one of these because I found a piece of very old jewelry that I believe to contain diamonds. The piece isn't hallmarked but many pieces weren't back then. I acquired an American Masonic 2 headed eagle pendant and chain. I believe it is 22k gold but no hallmarks or makers mark. It's American so this just indicates to me that it's very old and valuable. What method do you use to test for gold purity? I'm going to buy one of these on eBay and the ad says this unit will test gold and silver. Thanks from Australia 🦘
