If you spend a lot of time in the basement, you should have an active detector, not just a once a year test. They’re $120.
Then you’ll need to mitigate, probably with a radon fan in the attic (if you have one and if your house already has passive ventilation). They’re relatively cheap and easy to install, just don’t skimp on sealing the sump pit cover, because that really matters.
…oh good, and I am a basement troll…
