Does any other investigator out there feel like we are being sold just blinky light gadgets as tools? My problem with the K II meter is that it doesn't seem to be sensitive to just one type or range of EMF. I have several EMF detectors and I always get readings with the K II but none of my other EMF detectors will not sense anything.

The KII is definitely NOT a precision scientific instrument. From what I've seen two identical meters held up to the same EMF source, say a refrigerator, one might glow red while the other might be only yellow or orange. There is some innate difference with the internal calibration / sensitivity of the meters. I suspect they use the cheapest parts money can buy, and thus have wider tolerances that say if they were made by an actual instrument company such as Fluke etc.
The larger problem I have with the KII is that they only pick up on one axis. Depending on it's positioned relative to the source seems to greatly affect the reading. This is a big reason I am looking forward to experimenting more with the trifield line of meters (though quality wise I don't put them much higher than the KII).
I think the KII is a decent tool for sweeping a house to check for the background EMF. But if you were trying to communicate with a spirit, can they directly affect it? I do not know. If they can, I have doubts about how much control they have over its reading. The idea of 2 green lights for yes, and a yellow for no or some such is questionable at best to me.

The KII in my opinion is just as you stated a rough sweeping tool. Since it is susceptible to RF, AC fields, and Natural fields, it should only be used to determine if there is EMF radiation present in a location. One should then use more specific detectors to try and determine exactly what type of field is being detected. One of the major theories floating around the paranormal scene is "Spirits emit EMF". I highly doubt a spirit is made of radio waves or by man made AC fields so why does almost every team use the KIi as their sole " ghost detector".
