Ace 350 compared to the tecnetics euro tec pro with th 11inch dd coil
- Thread starter ccs
- Start date
I'd rather have the 350 from what I've seen of the tec pro. For instance, the ID is only three range, so
not much resolution there. I notice at one place online, it's about the same price as the Ace 250.
For coins, I'd rather have the Ace 250 over the Ace 350. But the 350 should be a bit better at relic
hunting. Maybe.. The 250 with the 9x12 is no slouch at relics either..
The ID spread on the 250 is more suited for coins.. I guess that's the main deal besides using
a concentric coil instead of a DD. The 350 gives a bit more resolution in the lower ranges for relics,
and it uses the DD.
For beach hunting it's a toss. The Ace machines are not the greatest beach machines, Usable, but
you can get better. They are OK in dry sand, but not so great in wet sand. They work, but I hear you
get a good bit of falsing in the salt water.
BTW, I know I'd rather have the Garrett if one went kaput and you had to send it in. No problem with
the Garrett. The Euro Tec, who knows...?? Don't really know much about them. Fairly new I guess.

I went back and looked at it again, and I guess the ID is no issue. I was reading about the alert,
and for some reason was thinking that was the ID res..
But it has a number readout, so should
be no problem. But not being too familiar with that outfit, I still might rather go with the Garrett..
Your call I guess. But having had a 250 for a few years, I know you can't really go wrong with an
Ace 250 or 350. They are pretty much proven decent machines, even if they don't have all the
latest bells and whistles. Not knowing a single person with a euro tec, they are pretty much an
unknown for me.

I think they're gonna both be about the same. This iron resolution factor is a fairly recent (past couple of years) issue-probably sparked by the in-the-know people-it's a highly talked about item. The idea is lowering the iron resolution as close to the iron mineral content as possible without signal output to find the targets "hidden" by the iron particles. Garrett, who's pretty good at listening-has developed it's newer models with this is mind. Just about every mfg. has followed suit.

Your right. The 250 has better ID resoultion that the 350.
BUT because of that I am FORCED TO DIG EVERYTHING.
No question of having to decide, "Do I want to dig this or not."
Being mostl a coin shooter, I have found quite a lot that I might
have missed othjerwise.
