aemsee Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 The kind that you use to look for stuff on the ground, not the airport kind :). Looking for info on them. Thinking about getting one for my 13 Y.O. for Christmas. Anyone here use them? What should I look for as far as quality? Like to keep the price under $200 as well. There is some info on the net of course, but I like opinions from people who have actually used different ones. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drahcir495 Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 You can't go wrong with the Garrett Ace 250 - easy to use, light, and has a good rep. We have a expensive waterproof Fisher model that I haven't used since picking up the ACE. I got it here -> http://www.kellycodetectors.com/garrett/garrett.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I've purchased 2 in my lifetime. both were bought with specific "lost things" in mind and both were returned soon after buying. :D And no, we didn't find either item. :( Found all sorts of random other things though. :yes: Nothing valuable. :( They were fun to use while I had them. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
