Hello All,

I'm looking for a device that I can buy off the internet that will help me reliably track my UV exposure. I would like to have something that is accurate in terms of telling me when I need to get out of the sun. Please share if any of you are using something that works for you. I have looked through a couple of products, but I'm not sure which ones are legitamate and which ones are snake oil. Any help would be much appreciated!!!

    Hope there is one!

    I've not heard of such things, but will be anxiously following your post, as I'd like to get one for my husband as well. We plan to spend as much time as possible outside this summer, & he needs reminders about his UV exposure here in the mountains! Thank you for posing the question!

    I know right?!

    Please do and let me know if you find anything legitamate! It's so important to avoid overexposure to UV radiation while doing outdoor activities yet there doesn't seem to be any options that are backed by the medical community. In any case, I'll let you know if I come accross a product worth the trouble. Best of luck!
