Minelab Vanquish 440 Metal Detector with V10 10”x 7” Double-D Waterproof Coil

The Minelab 440 detector gets various reviews by various people for various reasons. People who feel its justified to spend $1000 on a detector and THINK they're going to find what others won't will think this is a toy. People who are not into Minelab will say how it doesn't perform like their company does. People that flat out DON'T know how to use it will bomb it. Well, the 440 is a fantastic detector. Excellent depth, stable performance, easy to read display, easy to understand settings. If you want to go out and FIND things, this is for you. The 340 is limited in features and the 540 has features you simply don't need to justify the price difference. In the 4 years I've had this detector, I have found several pieces of jewelry, old coins and revolutionary war relics. The coil is waterproof, but the entire detector isn't. Not a problem because I go to parks. There is no backlight, but again no issue for me as I detect in the dawn to dusk window. I don't use headphones as I like to feel that I'm safer without them as opposed to being a target for someone thinking I can't hear. The target blips are loud and concise. The 440 ships with the V10 coil, which is by far the BEST coil for any of the Vanquish series. You will get extra depth with the V12, but pinpointing and target ID will vary if accustomed to the V10 ID's. Have found that the BEST batteries to get are the Energizer Lithium. They are expensive, but the machine will function at top tier until all power is exhausted. You will not go wrong. Far from a toy and for the price, a well rounded fully functional detector from a NAMED brand.. Get a REAL Garrett AT Pro pinpointer. They sell for $125. You won't believe what you'll find. Target IDs to be aware of: 13 Nickel, 23-27 Copper Penny / Dime, 29-31 Quarter, 9 usually Gold.

Increíble, luego luego lo probé en mi patio y encontré clavos y alambres a 20cm de profundidad. Detector excelente. Es mi primer detector y es intuitivo el manejo. (Actualización) Detecte a 25 CM este casquillo

Really fantastic metal detector... easy to operate straight out of the box - found all sorts of small metal things in my garden in first 30mins of use.

It lasted about 45 minutes of use. The original batteries that it came with lasted longer than the detector. After contacting minelab support, and reading a lot online, it seems that a defective unit can develop a "coil disconnected error" (Cd) and no longer works. I was really careful not to get this thing wet (even though the coil can be submerged) and looked after it. Minelab support did nothing. Having to return this now.
