Beware!
Can it hunt in farm fields? How is it near powerlines?? There is an American telling us how good it had done but no video on him actually using it. Just a pile of relics. Maybe it's no better than the ace 250 who knows. Just a heads up coming from someone who jumped the gun on a worthless AT Pro.

Great detector for the money
The day my Eurotek arrived, I headed off to a local cellar hole in my hometown. I didn't put any discrimination on in order to learn the three tones this machine has. The first signal I located had a really bouncy VDI, and it ended up being a can at about 5 inches.
The next signal had a VDI in mid 90s. I pressed down the pinpointed button to locate and get the exact depth of the target. A 1787 Connecticut copper came out of the ground at about 6 inches.
I didn't even know this type of coin existed! Two days later I went to a local park. I didn't find any silver but did find 3 wheats down pretty deep. I was even digging nickels! They ring up as a 56 ot 57 on the VDI I honestly can't think of any flaws this machine has.
-it has 3 tones unlike the Ace
-doesn't have annoying tones like the Ace
-very lightweight
-big screen
-good depth
-VERY easy to learn
I am really looking forward to using this machine more in the future. I would recommend this detector to anyone because it has lots of features that you wont find anywhere else for the price. This detector destroys the Ace in performance!
Max Depth: 9 inches on US quarter

Teknetis eurotek pro (great detector, imho)
I am not new to detecting I have been at it about 30 years and have tried many different brands and models, I don't claim to be a pro but have a pretty good idea how things work and suppose to work. The more that I use the Eurotek the more I like it, I can't get over the depth it gets and how well targets come in.
My wife and I went detecting at a school that we have been to a number of times, she was using the Eurotek (Pro with 11"DD coil) and I was using my Tesoro Tejon. I had a hit with my Tejon that I knew was deep as it was a very faint but repeating signal, I yelled to my wife hey come here a minute and run your coil over this, I was interested to see if the Eurotek would pick up the target, she came over and swung the coil and it came in very strong (she doesn't use headphones), I was surprised it hit it as hard as it did.
I showed her the mark/spot on the coil where the pinpoint sweet spot is and when we got done detecting she said to me while we were loading the detectors in the car I am starting to like this detector more. This is the first DD coil she has ever used and it took her awhile to get used to it, I think when the 8" coil arrives (Thursday) she will like it even better.
The Eurotek Pro is a good detector and I find it very fun to use. I think that this detector should be right up there at the top of the list when a person new to the hobby asks "what's a good detector that isn't real expensive for a beginner".
It is also a good detector for us that have been detecting for many years. If a person has to turn the sensitivity down for any reason you will still get good depth, the id is very accurate and the iron feature is great.
One other thing that I can say is that it is fun to use and that is important to me. Makes it hard handing it to the wife to use when we are out because I like it so much.
Teknetics has a winner, anyone thinking about trying a Eurotek I say go for it, I am betting that you will like it. I would like to say thanks to Bart at Big Boys Hobbies, I got the Eurotek from him, he is a terrific guy to do business with, before, during, and after the sale.

Awesome machine
It is very light and has fast target separation. Set the volume to 11 and you can hear the good targets with ease.
Seems to go really deep as well. I recommend it over the Coinmasters, Aces, F-series,Xterras, and even the Delta.
Try one and see for yourself. I am usually a beep and dig Tesoro fan but this is a nice change of pace.
