SUNPOW Metal Detector for Adults & Kids, Waterproof Metal Detector for Gold Detecting, Stable Anti-interference, Big LCD Display, 4 Modes, IP68 Search Coil

Took the metal detector on holiday to Kenya, packed it in the checked suitcase with no trouble at the airport. Security just asked about batteries, so took them out and packed them separately. Detector is lightweight and fits in luggage, so no hassle bringing it along.Used it on the beach and around the hotel grounds. Screen is big and clear, so could see the settings and signals even in bright sun. Four modes help pick out coins, jewellery, or just general metal bits. Pinpoint mode is useful for narrowing down where to dig, saves time and effort. Handle adjusts for different heights, so everyone in the family had a go, from kids to adults.Coil is waterproof, so tried it in shallow water. Found a few coins, bottle caps, and even a small bracelet. Shovel that comes in the box is handy for digging in sand and soil. Headphones help when it’s noisy, so didn’t miss any signals. Battery lasted the whole week, even with daily use and some night hunting with the backlight on.Detector feels sturdy and doesn’t feel heavy after a long session. Assembly is quick, just a few minutes and it’s ready to go. Instructions are clear, so no problem getting started as a beginner. Didn’t have any issues with interference, and it picked up small items at a good depth.Very pleased. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Would certainly recommend. Great value for the price.

The media could not be loaded. I am a complete novice at this, but I can tell you this metal detector has been worth every penny. I can't believe how effective it has been.I took it to the beaches on holiday and it was a huge success, my wife wanting to try it ended up searching with it longer than me.The item is listed as detecting upto 10 or 11 inches in depth, maybe that's in dense soil/earth, but in sand it easily hit that and deeper and we dug several holes elbow deep.The construction of the equipment is really easy and is sturdy when put together, which is done in a minute.The bag you receive is super handy to carry it in, that said its very light.The collapsible shovel does a superb job in sand, in fact its perfect for that environment.Our first rimes using it, we have found items dating back to late 1800 / early 1900, which was beyond expectations.The item arrived with two 9v batteries, I opted to buy some well known brand ones and use them. I have so far been using the metal detector with the same batteries for around 10-12hrs and the battery level says there is still 2 of the 4 bars left, that includes 2hrs at night with the back-light on.I would have no hesitation recommending this to another first time enthusiast, it is probably a pretty decent back up for the more experienced detectorist as well.Lightweight, sturdy, easy to use, good battery life, great detection level, really handy and useful shovel.Honestly, after a week of daily use, I can't fault it.The instructions do state the control box isn't waterproof, but it survived light drizzle, I opted to put a plastic bag over the control box when the rain got heavier.Dear Sunpow...I would love to buy a transparent raincover for it, just to help in case caught out by the weather.

Easy to assemble, came with batteries (which I didn’t expect). As a novice bit of equipment worked well for the price point. However the little shovel that came with it isn’t the greatest for digging in soil areas but would be ideal on the beach.

A present for our grandson on his birthday. He was here on the day and he spent over 3 hours in our front field with it staight away. He was so pleased with it and only 10 years old

Don't buy dose not work seller won't get back to you as they have your money at this point, it's a expensive toy as it does not work don't buy total waste of money

Very easy to use and lightweight. It is loud and clear .I'll enjoy this for a long while now

Firstly this is a very good detector.However, do not get the electronics box wet, it is not waterproof. My son took it in the sea and as a result the box short-circuited and never worked again.I contacted SUNPOW and asked if I could BUY a spare box as the rest of the detector was fine. They sent me a whole new detector FREE. No postage, no cost at all. There were a few superficial scratches on the detector, nothing more., We now have a fully functioning detector and a few spares.Fantastic service, great company.
