Garrett ACE 400i Metal Detector

Product Information

It is quite easy to operate the Garrett ACE 400, as we mentioned earlier. Even a novice can easily get started by reading the manual. Due to its great accuracy, lightweight construction, and superb performance, it’s also pleasurable to use in the field.

Coins: programmed to find most types of monies while rejecting foil and iron. Certain unnecessary objects such aluminium cans may be detected. Our Verdict: This Garrett metal detector is a great choice for anyone starting in metal detecting. Providing more than just the basics, this metal detector will give you a solid foundation for using a metal detector. Operating at 10kHz frequency you will be provided with better sensitivity to low and medium conductivity targets such as gold and lead. With the detectors Frequency Adjust feature you can easily toggle between slight frequency shifts to help eliminate interference from other detectors or sources of power.The ACE 400i includes five discrimination modes, electronic pinpointing, sensitivity adjustment and High-Resolution Iron Discrimination. If you’re interested in searching for specific types of metals, the ACE 400 has you covered. It’s equipped with iron and notch discrimination. The iron discrimination feature works alongside the Iron Audio system to help you identify junk metals. You can choose to ignore those metals altogether so that you can focus on other items. kHz) Frequency compared to the Ace 250’s (6.5khz) this has really improved the sensitivity and depth capabilities of the Ace 250 combined with the new coil I previously mentioned.

The top of the ACE family, the 400i has new Iron Audio feature, a powerful DD coil, a higher frequency, and volume control headphones.The machine is lightweight weighing just 1.27 Kgs! Making it a great detector to use all day long without causing any fatigue. It has added grip padding and elbows support padding which adds to the comfort.

New!Higher frequency (10 kHz) provides better sensitivity on low and medium-conductivity targets (i.e. gold, lead) When compared to a traditional coil, DD coils tend to offer far better performance. It’s more stable and has better sensitivity to small items or metals with a lower conductivity level. That’s because the distinct shape creates a different electromagnetic field pattern when you’re searching. Instead of the conical search pattern you get with traditional units, you’re getting a wider search path that’s heavily concentrated. Thus, it’s able to penetrate deeper into the soil.Had a real sense of excitement where I dug up a clod of earth and found a ring of gold that was visible. Carefully peeling away the mud revealed the actual item, a screw bottle top. Oh well, the feeling was good while it lasted. Had a signal and digging down to around 24” found the biggest piece of lead I have ever dug up and it weighs 3.58Kg. The top of the ACE family, the 400 has new Iron Audio feature, a powerful DD coil, a higher frequency, and volume control headphones. The Garrett Ace 300i features a new digital target ID from 0 to 99, this scale offers visual target information. In total, the ACE 400 has 8 different sensitivity levels to choose from. With a push of a button, you can adjust those levels as you work. This might be useful if you’re trying to find smaller items or objects with low conductivity levels. Upping the sensitivity can help you uncover treasures that are buried deeper into the ground.

Overall the Garrett Ace 400i is a great all-rounder finding very small and large items of various descriptions, I have been out for approx 23 hours and it has a battery life of 3 bars remaining and not once have I found the detector heavy. It is an easy to set up and go, well balanced machine and has been a pleasure to use. The big clear VDI display is readable, clear and identifies metals well. The iron Audio feature has helped identify iron, allowing me to walk on.Enhanced Iron Resolution: 3x the iron resolution of an ACE 250, to help separate good targets from adjacent junk iron Includes
