Bounty Hunter Tracker IV Metal Detector with adjustable trash elimination

Product Information

We found that the top uses for metal detectors are coin shooting, relic hunting, and gold prospecting, which we will describe below. We also found that the top areas people are concerned about while doing their detecting are beaches and water. We therefore looked for metal detectors that specialize in these areas. The ground-balancing feature is responsible for sensing the various metallic minerals in the soil and, in turn, clearing out any possible interference from these. If the calibration strength is too low on your metal detector, you may experience frustrating interference from the minerals in the soil. There is no universal search coil for a metal detector. Different coils are suitable for each specific place and purpose. For example, large ones that can cover a large area will not bring success in places with lots of metal trash. It’s convenient to work with small “snipers” in such a place. We were pleasantly surprised to find that, overall, the Bounty Hunter – Gold Digger came in third place in our test results, and yet it is the second cheapest model out of all seven detectors we tested. We admit that this detector does not look special (with only a power level, trash eliminator, and sensitivity meter on the display), but it gets the job done. When all features are adjusted properly, this budget unit finds treasures with the best of them. However, you are only considering this from your perspective – with the heft and the strength of an adult.

All of the detectors that we tested had an adjustable discrimination feature, which we set according to their respective manuals. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the results of this test were very similar to the above general detection test. The Garrett – Ace 250 had the highest score, failing to find only one object. The Ground EFX – MC1 Youth had the lowest score, failing to find several objects and actually erroneously alerting us of one trash item. Weighing only around 1 kilo, the Duramaxx Waterproof Metal Detector is quite light, even for someone who is quite small. Later, other three companies, smaller and less innovative, but still strong, entered the market – Tesoro, Technetics, and Bounty Hunter. Garrett Vintage Metal Detectors Once again, in line with our above tests, the Garrett – Ace 250 had the best score in the underwater test, locating with perfect accuracy all six of the underwater items. Surprisingly, here the Ground EFX – MC1 Youth did not score the lowest. Instead, the Treasure Cove – TC-3020, New Home Innovations – Starter Kit, and BARSKA – Winbest Pro Edition all tied for the worst score, locating four out of the six underwater items.It’s good for people who have some experience or who want to dive into metal detecting with both feet. Beach and water hunting: While coin shooting, relic hunting, and gold prospecting are the most popular activities for metal detectorists, the beach and ocean are the most popular locations for detecting. There are two main terrains to consider here: the sand and underwater. The discrimination scale of the detector shows the VDI values, which range from 0 to 99 and divided into 12 sectors. It has many custom programs you can choose from, plus a manual ground balance to adapt to the ground you are dealing with. Treasure hunters out there know that those coins, relics, and gold can be hiding in a wide variety of places: in the sand, buried several inches, in the water or hidden alongside trash. Finding that treasure or passing it over may very well depend on the model of the metal detector that you are using.

This means you’ll have a better idea what kind of relic or treasure you’ve found with the Lone Star Pro. Therefore, you should typically try to find the lightest detector possible or figure out just how much your little one can carry. The Treasure Cove – TC-3020 had an all-around good score on our five tests, making it worth considering. When we first got our hands on this unit we were excited about the sheer number of options and features on the LCD display. We have to note that this is the second best display of all our seven models, only behind the Garrett – Ace 250. Fisher F22 weatherproof metal detector is made of solid plastic. It doesn’t afraid of hitting, temperature changes, getting wet, or exposure to the sun. Coil: The coil is the flat sphere at the end of the detector that you hold above the ground. It comes in many different styles and shapes, including the double-D, concentric and spider designs. Each type of coil excels at certain things and struggles with others, so be sure to think about what you will be using your detector for before choosing your coil.

Bounty Hunter Metal Detectors Reviews

Weatherproofing and waterproofing are undoubted pros for a device. This not only protects the model from wet and rain but also makes it possible to search along the coastline or in small bodies of water. The detector will automatically adjust to the ground conditions using this feature which allows for better depth and more accurate target ID. Even better, they will be able to handle every aspect of the detector by themselves. Maplin Beginners Metal Detector Last but not least, pay attention to the weight of the tool when you are going to buy it. You have to carry the device and all the additional equipment for several hours. Long trips should be fun, and not turn into torment.
