Bounty Hunter Tracker IV Metal Detector with adjustable trash elimination

Product Information

Therefore, you should typically try to find the lightest detector possible or figure out just how much your little one can carry. If you plan on detecting in places where there will be metallic trash that might interfere, or you plan on searching for items underwater and you want the absolute best performance under these conditions, you may want to spend the extra cash and go with the Garrett. Let’s look at the detectors in the Bounty Hunter line and find one that will be right for you or the kid in your life. Best option for kids

Double-D coils have an excellent range of coverage but cannot read objects buried very deep. Concentric coils, on the other hand, do not have as good of a range, but read buried objects better. Spider coils are the most consistent of all coil shapes and can be used amid bushes and grass. 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. Bounty Hunter equipment is loved by metal detectorists all around the globe due to its affordability, simplicity of use, but at the same time efficiency. items by this manufacturer bring finds even if they are created for total noobs or children. So it is possible to opt for the most suitable tool regardless of the level of skills. However, metal detecting as an activity pursued not only for industrial purposes, but also for small searches and hobby/recreation already has a long story of many decades, when such things as updatable software just did not exist as class. However, some treasure hunters know that their grandpas and fathers were metal detectorists! So, what machines did they use? I mean, except this universal two-forked branch technology?Even with the heavier weight and extended length, this machine is still a great choice for kids because of how easy it is to operate. As we mentioned earlier, Bounty Hunter is a respected brand in the metal detecting world. The products are well-made. Not only that, but the brand offers devices at several different price points. Many of the detectors are relatively affordable. Yet, they do not sacrifice performance. In pinpoint mode, the detector works without discrimination. This feature is essential for digital devices that have a slow response from the target. Analog models have an extremely fast response from the target. That’s why many of them are not equipped with such a function. 6. Audio Mode Weighing at just 2 pounds, this is a lightweight machine as compared to other metal detectors in the same range. This also allows you to use it for an extended amount of time without feeling tired.

Contingent on how old your little one is, they may not have the attention span or the understanding to be able to deal with complex technology.Each metal detector can be shortened only so much, so it is important to make sure that this matches your child’s height. 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.

The controls are intuitive and the screen helps you locate your targeted metal easily, it will also give you a feel to identify the metals you have found and about to dig for. Texas First Products sells a wide range of products under several different brand names. In addition to Bounty Hunter, the company is responsible for Teknetics, Night Owl Optics, Nivisys, iGen, and Fisher. With these brands, Texas First Products has grown to become a leading consumer electronics company. This function reduces the number of false positives from the electrically charged soils. Some devices have a factory preset of the ground balance. This setting is very rough. As a result, we have a tool that works steadily on almost any types of ground conditions, but it’s inferior by the depth of signal penetration to detectors without fixed settings. Third, we performed a depth test in which we buried the coins, relics, and gold several inches deep and then tested how well the detectors sensed them. Fourth, we submitted each detector to an underwater test in which we tested how well the detectors sensed the coins, relics, and gold when they were submerged several inches. Finally, while doing all of the above tests, we also considered the ergonomic look and feel of each metal detector. Basic detection testIt uses three faces — the sad face means it’s a junk find like nails, a more interested face shows a more valuable item like a ring and the happiest face indicates the target could be a coin. But in the meantime, they’ll get years of use out of this detector, and they’ll love showing family and friends their finds. Bounty Hunter metal detectors are made for those just entering the hobby and intermediate-level hobbyists. They have been popular with amateur detectorists for several decades. Discrimination: The discrimination feature on metal detectors is used to specify what objects you do and do not want your detector to locate. Most detectors will have this feature, but the options of this mode will vary greatly. For metal detecting at a depth, typically, a concentric (mono) type of a coil is used. Another type, Double-D (DD), works best at a shallower depth, but it can cover a noticeably larger area. Such a coil is effective by working with highly electrically charged soil.
