Good for water hunting

This is a well built budget deep diving detector... It is not as bad as
most make it out to be. It is heavy, the knobs are hard to turn, the
headphones are a bit cheap, the shaft clamp will jam if sand gets in it.
Other than that the Discriminator works well and does not reduce depth. It
can be run at full sensitivity and it will find small gold targets at 3-4
inches, coins and other larger targets 5-6 inches. It does what its
advertised to do.
I have used mine in Lake Erie with great success. That said I would not use it as my main land unit. Who wants to dig deep holes 100ft underwater? Not this guy! I run it at 33 percent Disc + 100 percent Sens.
Max Depth: 6 inches on US quarter

Not that great

They advertise this as a water detector than can hunt at depths of up to
132 feet. But, don't believe the advertising. This is a cheaply made
detector and not worth it's $470.00 price tag. I bought one and kept it
month, and sold it on Ebay. If you want a detector that can hunt in the
water, you can get a lot better machine by paying a hundred dollars more
and getting something else.
