The Garrett brand is a favourite of many metal detector enthusiasts from the professional to the beginner. The Garrett Ace 300i metal detector certainly lives up to this reputation with its simple and lightweight design along with its impressive array of features, this metal detector is sure to be a popular choice but is it the right choice for you? The Garrett ACE 300i is supported by four alkaline batteries, which ensure a sufficient power supply for extended detection sessions. Additionally, a battery low indication feature notifies users when the battery power is running low, allowing for timely replacement. The ACE 300 is a typical surface search metal detector. It has the power to detect metal objects buried around 8 inches deep. However, it can search even deeper depending on different factors. These may include the soil, your settings, and the item’s size and chemistry. Each of the modes works by removing specific segments from its Target ID scale. Even so, you will still see all segments on the Digital Target ID. The machine, however, will not emit an audio signal allowing you to ignore any unwanted stuff.

The cover of the control panel is slid off to reveal the battery compartment, and it takes 4 AA batteries.Garrett has become synonymous for the philosophy for unparalleled customer satisfaction. The Garrett range has a wide selection of specialised detectors, allowing you to move to a more advanced detector as your skills progress. Since their foundation in 1964 Garret has been a market leader in metal detection.

Additionally, it only weighs 1.2 kgs. Being a lightweight option, carrying the metal detector around is effortless. Deeply buried targets usually give intermittent signals. Other items that cause such signals may be shallow targets, but located at a weird angle. If you stumble across a patch that gives intermittent signals, try scanning it from different angles, to identify the position and depth. You can use Pinpoint mode for more precise identification, or even change the search coil to a smaller one, if possible. Is the Garrett ACE 300 waterproof? In true Garrett Ace fashion they have continued the basic and simple look of this range of metal detectors, I think I would have liked to have seen them looking a little more “2022” however beauty is only ever skin deep.It may, nonetheless, perform poorly in high-mineralization areas. The reason being, it’s limited to having a factory-set ground balance. But if you plan to use the ACE 300 for its intended purpose, it’s an ideal option for most hobbyists. As you would know if you have ever used a Garrett Ace metal detector, they are very sturdy well the Garrett Ace 300 & 300i seems to have got even sturdier and stronger while not compromising the light weight benefit.

PinPointing, again not something that the ace 150 included and in my eyes an absolute god send and time saver! Even though all coils have something to offer, find one that best suits your ground and target preference. 10. Batteries Simplicity, as usual, is key with the ACE range of detectors, it comes just a few sections, the Control Panel, The upper stem with the elbow rest attached, and the lower stem which attaches to a search coil. As with the Garrett ACE 150 and the Garrett ACE 250 it can be assembled in just a matter of minutes. It only includes the mode, sensitivity, and discrimination buttons. And what’s even more amazing, all these buttons operate on a plus or minus basis.

The Garrett Ace 300i metal detector as an impressive range of features must notably the digital targeting ID with a wide scale of 0 to 99 this offers you a wealth of visual targeting information and ensures you get a more accurate reading. It also features a waterproof search coil, an 8 khz frequency with improved sensitivity and depth. Light weight, powerful, entry-level detector that's easy to learn. Simple One-Touch operation; turn on and begin hunting! This interference may arise from high-mineralization soils, other metal detectors, salt, cell phones, etc. In such a scenario, the only solution has to do with adjusting the ground balance. waterproof search coil – water isolated search coil means that metal detecting on wet dirt or sand, or in wet grass and even some shallow water metal detecting are possible. However, the metal detector is not protected from heavy rain, or being accidentally dropped into the water This function may not be something you’ll have to use frequently. Nevertheless, it proves to be very convenient anytime you need it. Take, for instance, when facing interference from Wi-fi signals or power lines. Or when competing with other 8kHz-running metal detectors.

To celebrate Garretts 55th anniversary we are offering Garrett complete anniversary metal detecting kits which include a metal detector, pinpoint probe, find box, headphones and more, perfect as a gift for someone or to start you off in the hobby. A powerful performer at a bargain price. The ACE 300 has more modes than an ACE 200 and enhanced features to help find more treasure. Also, Notch Discrimination can be used for spotting very specific objects, for example, lost jewelry. If you have a sample of metal/material, you can scan the sample in zero Discrimination mode and then find the exact pixel in the Notch Discrimination that matches the sample response. Switch off all other pixels, and you will be able to spot the item of the same chemical composition as your sample, by detecting only this specific pixel. Garrett ACE 300 Accessories Remarkably, the ACE 300 also includes top-quality audio. Alongside the graphics display, it helps you identify targets and give you an idea of what’s beneath. The Garrett Ace 300i features a new digital target ID from 0 to 99, this scale offers visual target information.

The Zero-Disc mode activates all 12 search pixels. It will, therefore, detect all metals. Also, it can find and separate good objects that could be hiding near trash ones.
