Ive been swinging it every day for 3 months now.
Using the stock 8 inch coil but thinking about a 5 inch coil for some of the trashier areas that i hunt
What i like
3 modes of search
A1 ,, all metal mode with a wider search field
A2.. all metal mode with a more defined search field ( i seem to use this one allot)
and discrimination mode
Very light weight and balanced nicely
Pinpoint feature is precise ( my holes are getting pretty small )
discrimination settings are independent from all metal to discrimination and remain set until unit is turned off
If swung properly, you will be able to here trash next to a good target ( i hope the 5 inch coil makes it even easier )
What i don't like.. pretty chatty around power lines or when the cell phone goes off on my belt ( not to big of a deal, it lets me know the phone is ringing
)
Ground balance is fixed ( i wish i had control of it ) this would probably make the machine more accurate
Depth: found a claw hammer head yesterday in the backyard at 17 inches
I haven't found any Deep coins yet, most are in the 1 to 5 inch depth honestly ( this may be because i haven't passed over any deep ones yet ( we'll see )
Air Test on a Nickle is about 12 to 13 inches but week
