Garrett 1138070 ACE 150 Metal Detector

Product Information

The ACE 200 has fewer modes than its big brothers, but they are (in my opinion anyway) the best ones of the bunch. Very basic metal detectors for kids have a singular on/off switch. These are the cheapest models available and will be most appropriate for 4 – 9-year-olds. As children get older, they will be able to better understand a metal detector with adjustable settings.

This detector really is an improvement on all of its predecessors. In addition to having great sensitivity, users are also now able to distinguish between different types of iron. One of the major advantages is the price – for all the advanced features that you get, it really is somewhat of a bargain.On the downside, the 150 doesn’t have ground balancing so it might send out false signals on mineralised ground. You can combat this a bit with the sensitivity, but experienced detectorists will want adjustable ground balancing. What you’ll be looking at for the most time is the identification scale. This is Garrett’s numeric target ID and it’ll tell you what you’ve found before digging. Custom:- Set standard as the same as coin mode, but the user can programme custom settings using the elimination, and discrimination to selectindividual specifications.

Simple Notch Discrimination On his first trip out, Max wasn’t bothered about the sensitivity button preferring to hunt for coins on the pre-set. On our second trip to the woods, where there were fewer signals, he started to play with the sensitivity, turning it up until it squealed and then down just enough to stop it from making a constant noise. With just three buttons on its control unit, and an easy-to-read LED display, the DR.OTEK Metal Detector keeps things simple. There’s an on/off button, pinpoint button, and sensitivity button.
