Silver Umax is GREAT!

[saginawian]

I recently got a Silver Umax and I have to tell you that this little thing is GREAT! I have been so pleasantly suprised with this that I have been using it exclusively. It has great depth, superb discrimination, and incredible target separation. Lightweight, powerful, sounds/looks cool. I must tell you that this detector it gets better results than my $1000 detector that I've been using for a year. I wish I would have gotten one of these sooner. I can only imagine how good the CIbola and Vaquero are if they are upgrades to this one. Simply awesome.

Hi, i use a Tesoro sidewinder micromax. got it at a pawn shop for $55. had to do a little repair in the arm rest. not been doing much md'ing do to rain most days here in Lewiston,Id., but the siderwinder Umax is very enjoyable to use. i am (weather permitting) searching an old drive-in theater that was in operation way back in the very early 50's, and closed in the very early, early 80's.; and yes, i am sure the area has been well scrubed with detectors over the many years, but too drive-ins theaters are junk magnets, ie, pull-tabs, bottle caps, tinfoild, and etc., but i am still sure, do to the size of the area there is still plenty of good finds remaining.
i don't know how much of an up-grade it will be, but i am planning on a Garrett ace 250, then up to a Tesoro Vaquero; but will keep my "sidewinder micromax", just because,... i like it as a turn-on and go machine.
"good hunting" *Patrick*

I find the Tesoro light, fast response, clean discriminate, and affordable. HOT circuitry goes deep and the machines are a joy to use.
Tesoro Tejon and Cibola. Stock 9x8 coils, 575 coil, and 575 Widescan DD coil. - They work for me. Just don't know which will be my next Tesoro, but not giving up the Tejon and Cibola for some time.

Does your 1000 dollar detector start with an E by chance?
