Tesoro Compadre Metal Detector
Tesoro Compadre Metal Detector
Some metal detecting friends of mine were sitting around drinking coffee and I asked the question, "Can you name one company, besides Tesoro, that makes a low cost, lightweight, high quality, easy-to-operate detector that comes with a lifetime warranty and can be used by the whole family including everyone from the kids to granddad?" No one could think of a company!...
Tesoro Cibola Metal Detector
Tesoro Cibola Metal Detector
My first reaction, after the almost too-easy assembly of the Cibola, was "Wow." Finally, the ultimate competition hunting machine! The Cibola incorporates at least one function from several of my favorite Tesoro machines: push button pinpoint, selectable multi-frequency, adjustable threshold with a discrimination and sensitivity knob—all at fingertip control. I was amazed at the fact that this dynamic detector was powered by 1-9 volt alkaline battery, and as always, I was very impressed with the compact but very secure shipping carton utilized by Te...

MP Series MPX Digital
I recently had the honor of testing the MPX digital metal detector for Kellyco Metal Detector Superstore. One reason I was selected was due to the weather. Snow, sleet and cold had covered most of the U.S. while here in Florida we still had sunshine and mild weather....

White's Matrix M6
White's Matrix M6
The numbers on the display screen of the M6 were reading +83 Target ID at a depth of 9". The signal was under overhanging bushes near the center of a park. Since the area dated back to the mid 1880s, with a nearby military establishment, an old silver coin definitely came to mind. Although well hunted by detectorist over the last 30 years, the location still produces a pleasant surprise now and then....
Nokta Golden Sense
Nokta Golden Sense
After learning of the newly released Nokta Golden Sense and watching a web-hosted video demonstrating the detectors superior recovery speed, I became quite interested in testing the machine to verify and validate the claims of exceptional recovery depth. I primarily hunt the east and west coasts of central Florida and wanted more information on the Golden Sense depth penetration in the dry sand and conductive wet sand, positive ground beach environments. ...
