Garrett Vortex VX5 Metal Detector

Key Features and Benefits:

• Multi-Flex Technology: Choose between a single frequency (13 kHz) or a simultaneous Multi-Freq. mode to effectively find a wide range of targets in any condition, from high-conductivity items like large coins to low-conductivity items like gold.
  
• Fully Waterproof: The detector and its 8.5" x 11" DD Vortex Raider™ searchcoil are completely sealed and submersible to 16 feet (5 meters). This makes it a perfect choice for searching beaches, rivers, and lakes.
  
• Convenient and Compact: The unit features a straight telescopic stem for easy adjustment. With a total weight of just 3 lbs (1.38 kgs) and a collapsed length of 24.75" (63 cm), the Vortex VX5 is highly convenient for transport and long hours of use.
  
• Functions for Precise Searching:
  
  • Target ID Scale: The detector provides a single number for each found item, helping you identify what the target is (from iron to valuable metals).
    
  • Notch Discrimination: This feature allows you to "turn off" the detection of specific unwanted targets, such as bottle caps, so you can focus on valuable finds.
    
  • Iron Audio™: A unique Garrett feature that helps you better identify and hear iron targets.
    
• Built-in Battery: The rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides up to 15 hours of continuous operation.
  
• Software Upgrades: The Vortex VX5 can be upgraded to more advanced versions (VX7, VX9) without the need to buy a new detector, making it a valuable long-term investment.
