However, it’s also possible to adjust the discrimination mode to suit your needs. For example, using custom mode, you can adjust the settings of any of the pre-set modes and then save to use later.

Like most detectors, there is also a pre-set coin mode, which helps to find coins by discriminating against smaller metals like ring pulls, pieces of iron, old foil etc. As the Garrett EuroACE is designed for European users, it’s tuned to search for common European coin shapes and sizes.

Zero modeis a new name for All metal mode, all metal mode will not discriminate against any kind of metals. So you will receive a signal for iron and such like, that being said this is the mode I mainly use, I do dig more scrap, but then I can’t bear the thought of missing anything and sometimes signals are iffy with all metal detectors depending on how the item lays in the ground. Once you are used to the audio you will know roughly what it is in the ground by the sound. The 8.5kHz frequency is certainly an impressive inclusion with the Garrett EuroACE, allowing the detector to have a much higher accuracy when detecting small objects. This is especially good for targeting rarer finds such as gold and is one of the big reasons why the Garrett EuroACE is viewed so highly. To help you make the right choice, we have reviewed 5 different metal detector models and singled out the main features you should keep in mind when buying one. If you are a fan of alfresco pastime, using headlamps and sleeping bags can make your staying outdoors much more comfortable. What Features to Compare Specifications Another gear feature is the double-D PROformance search coil. This is a powerful new addition to the Garrett EuroACE and one that greatly improves performance, particularly with depth detection, while it has unique shape that allows it to achieve more ground coverage for a coil of this size The next group of aspects for you to consider includes device operation modes and controls. For example, different configuration profiles of a metal detector allow detecting specific types of metal and discarding the other, which enables discrimination among the artefacts you are after and prevents you from digging for a scrap. Thus, applying your own configuration profile greatly increases the search efficiency. Some metal detectors support a depth meter function, with which you can obtain information on the burial depth of a precious ring or a coin. The feature of detector sensitivity adjustment provides easier search and makes it possible to filter interference and noise produced by mineralized soil or nearby transmission lines. Extra features, such as determination of the type of a metal object or even a denomination value of coins are the pros when considering a metal detecting device. A digital pinpointer feature provides detailed info on object location in the ground so, you can excavate this object without damaging it. A big and informative screen and various data displaying configurations allow you to choose a mode that suits you best and easily read the detector info. While a multitone sound indication of metal detection empowers you to distinguish different metals by ear. Extras

Even with the price of this machine, it seems Garrett has not cut corners with comfort, the padding and grip are very comfortable. Coins modediscriminates iron, foil, ring pulls (be careful with this as hammered silvered coins can show as ring pulls)designed for coin shooting.

There are only a few buttons, 6 to be exact, making this a very easy metal detector to navigate. No internal menus and no complicated setup process. It’s very straightforward. I personally have owned and used the Garrett Euro Ace for a couple of years and I found it to be very productive with great depth capabilities. It’s simple to use, and a metal detector that you can turn on and go saving you valuable treasure hunting time! The one difference between this and the earlier ACE models is the new double D search coil addition!

Everyone seems to agree the Garrett ACE 400i really can do no wrong. This detector really is an improvement on all of its predecessors. In addition to having great sensitivity, users are also now able to distinguish between different types of iron. One of the major advantages is the price – for all the advanced features that you get, it really is somewhat of a bargain. It offers fantastic value for money if you are working with a budget and as I said holds its money pretty well so if you wanted to sell and upgrade you won’t lose a lot. It has all of the features and power you’re going to need. Using the Garrett Ace 150 is quite simple. It comes with detailed, easy-to-follow instructions, so the assembly process takes just a few minutes. Also, the machine feels very solid and well-made. In fact, unlike many other machines in its price, it's actually made in the USA, not China, which favourably sets it apart from the competition. The Garrett Euro Ace has a waterproof coil but it is unsure just how waterproof the control panel is, it takes some light rain, I know that for sure, but I wouldn’t risk a heavy downpour.There are many covers available for a small cost for the control panel housing, you could even wrap in clingfilm if you were desperate which is something I did when I first started out. Garrett Euro Ace Coil upgrades Custom mode is used to store your own personal discrimination settings, factory preset it is the same as coin mode, but you can edit this as you see fit.

There are 6 buttons on the Garrett Ace 250, Power, Discrimination, Mode, Sensitivity, Pinpoint, and Elim (Short for eliminating) and it features the simple LED display. The Garrett EuroACE is part of a long line of distinguished metal detectors from renowned manufacturer Garrett Electronics, who are widely viewed as one of the best producers of metal detectors from the last 50 years. While these high-end features and performance capabilities are sure to appeal to seasoned metal detecting users, the Garrett EuroACE is a fine choice for beginners as well. The simple and intuitive control panel makes it fun and easy to use, while the high performance only guarantees finding all kinds of hidden treasure! It’s the 3rd in the series of the Ace metal detectors, you have the Ace 150, the Ace 250 then the EuroAce.So if you’re looking for an all-around metal detector then it’s more than sufficient in most conditions and it’s a great price. Coins: programmed to find most types of monies while rejecting foil and iron. Certain unnecessary objects such aluminium cans may be detected. The Garrett EuroAce control panel features just 6 buttons and has been kept simple enough for the complete novice to understand and use. The buttons are the following. The Garrett machine comes with a 2-year warranty, and again they have created a great budget machine that seems to compete with metal detectors twice the price. consumer-grade technology is often VLF ( Very Low Frequency). This means the detector hastwo search coils: one that sends out a low-frequency wave into the soil and
