Best "cheaper" metal detector on the market! September 14, 2008
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is the best deal you can get on the internet for a metal detector. I have been metal detecting for 13 years and have tried a few! You will not find a better one for under $400. I used to have the Radio Shack one that was the same and I loved it. Ever since, other metal detectors have disappointed me. This one is an improvement over the old version because I just took it to the beach and it worked like a charm. I've never had another low-end detector work at the beach. Most go haywire. The variety of setting combinations will allow you to work well in any area. I can get it to pick out coins in a trashy park, on the beach, or deep down. The ONLY drawback is that it doesn't tell you the depth, so you might have to dig more than you want. Of course, $500 more might not be worth that feature and the detector might not even work as well as this one. I plan to get a small probe to help out with that. It is very accurate though and I never dig a hole wider than the search coil itself. This deal comes with a great carry bag, find pouch, and sturdy shovel, and you can't beat that. The carry bag is worth $30 itself and I don't know how I lived without one before.

I bought this during a Friday Sale for the price of a Tracker IV. This is an excellent all purpose metal detector. Where it differs from other detectors in the price range: it is designed to go deep with a slow (slower than the normal 2 feet per second) back and forth sweeping action. This "slow" technique makes pinpointing (zeroing in on target) much easier. Adding the 4" coil brings pinpointing down to a 2" sweep.
Like all metal detectors, there is a learning curve to get the most from this unit. If you want an easy set-up, put the two control knobs at the point where the dots change color and hit the "Auto Notch" button, you will get most coins and jewelery (you will miss some gold). If you need to find property boundary markers, set it on "All Metal". If you want to detect at the saltwater (wet) shore, hit the "Disc" button and turn the "Sensitivity" down (less sensitive) and use the 4" coil. Coils are waterproof, rinse after each days use.
This unit is the same as the Radio Shack Discovery 2000. The Radio Shack owner's manual has more information than on setting up the unit and is available on-line.
The Bonus Gift comes with an 8"x8"x28" carry bag. The carry bag has an outside zippered pocket on one end and an inside Velcro tabbed pocket along one side. There are two Velcro loops inside on the bottom. The pouch is an open "hip" or "fanny" pack with one Velcro close tab and a 1" belt that fits a 42" waist. The trowel is a nylon/fiberglass Fiskars #7879.
