Garrett ACE 400i Metal Detector

Product Information

One of the most important things to consider when deciding on a metal detector is to make sure it can withstand the elements of where you’ll be searching. Both the search coil and shaft of the Garrett ACE 400 are waterproof. This allows you to comfortably hunt in shallow waters.

The same goes for notch discrimination. This is a filter that forces the detector to ignore certain frequencies. You can easily set new notches as you search, making the detector a highly efficient tool for finding specific lost items. 3. Multiple Sensitivity Levels Below is a general guide to the Ace 400 Numbers. Getting the machine to accurately identify your find has a lot to do with the shape, size and obviously the material. Target ID Range It’s got enough features to keep you happy including digital target ID, search modes, and iron audio but not so much tech it’s become unaffordable. The ACE 400i also has the advantage of being lighter and more comfortable. This detector weighs about 1.32 kg, so you will not become tired of carrying it.

Audio

This is a great machine for the price and one of the best metal detectors for beginners or those with some experience. A coin will ring out the high bell while low conductivity will sound out lower. It’s pretty easy to figure out. You can adjust the newly upgraded ‘pulse width modulation’ system to your audio preference. Target ID works on a 0-99 scale. Iron registers low whereas coins register high and the vertical graph shows you how deeply the target is buried. You’ll know pretty much what’s down there before you dig. This Garrett metal detector does a fantastic job at tough locations such as beaches, rivers, and shores. The large search coil is waterproof and can be submerged to find items in muddy environments. While the control panel isn’t water-resistant, it does have some features to help you overcome the challenges of shoreline searching. This includes a powerful discrimination system, frequency adjustments, and multiple sensitivity settings.
