GPX 4500 text NEW Minelab GPX 4500.
Creation worth it's weight in gold!
Stronger and more versatile than ever before, the Minelab GPX-4500 is the ultimate in cutting edge gold finding technology offering features and performance levels that other manufacturers are yet to match. Incorporating new Smart Electronic Timing Alignment (SETA) technology alongside Minelab's existing Multi Period Sensing (MPS) and Dual Voltage Technology (DVT), it is quieter and more immune to interference than earlier models, making it a real pleasure to use. No matter if you've never picked up a detector before, the GPX-4500 offers a number of pre-programmed search modes allowing you to start detecting like an expert right away! Quieter threshold, louder target signals, improved discrimination, and more versatility, the GPX-4500 is the gold detector that gives the best results, bar none. The improved discrimination, including the Iron Reject function, combined with the specially programmed Hi Trash search mode makes areas of extreme junk well worth a search. Also great for the specialist Relic and Jewellery hunter who demands the best, and wants to recover smaller and deeper targets invisible to most treasure detectors. Offering all of the great features and high performance you have come to expect from a Minelab detector, the GPX-4500 is the latest in nugget detecting technology for the professional prospector or someone that simply wants the best.

Features:

=SETA, DVT & MPS Technology delivers to you the most technologically advanced detector yet making small hard to hear nuggets more obvious.

=New timings so the GPX-4500 is even more versatile. In addition to the four timings found on the previous model the GPX-4500 introduces two new timings: Enhance and Sharp. The new Enhance timing is a powerful feature, similar to the Sensitive Smooth timing, but provides an improvement in the depth and signal response on small and large targets alike. The Sharp timing is more suited to quieter soils and can also be used as an aid to pin-point faint signals.

=Six pre-programmed search modes for easy switch on and go detecting. In addition to General and Deep search are Hi Mineral; Hi Trash; Patch and Test A modes. All six search modes can also be modified with your favourite settings and renamed.

=Ground balance off for neutral soils in addition to normal and specific ground balance options on previous model. In GB Off the ground balance circuit is by-passed to give extra deep detection. This is a useful feature in very benign low mineralised, or salt saturated soils. This setting will also work well for treasure or relic hunters in loam or sandy soils.

=Back light so you can read the LCD menu in any light, day or night. The back light has adjustable time-out to preserve battery life.

=Stabilizer for the smoothest threshold. The stabilizer function is a fine tuner that gives the operator full control over the threshold stability. In quiet conditions, increase the stabilizer control and faint target signals will be more obvious. Turning it down will provide you with a smoother threshold, improving your ability to pick up the faintest of signals

=Target Volume in addition to the Volume Limit control, which prevents signals from being too loud, the new Target Volume allows you to increase the strength of softer target signals. This is useful for very windy conditions, for people suffering from hearing loss, and to adjust the audio volume when using external speakers. The Target Volume can also be used as an audio boost in mild soils, and can be used to reduce or smooth out ground noise signals in highly mineralised soils. This is a powerful feature, and will work in conjunction with the Stabilizer control, to give you the ultimate in fine-tuning ability.

=Improved discrimination giving you access to the worst of trashy ground. The Iron Reject function allows the operator to set the desired level of discrimination, from cautious to aggressive. This will open up detecting in areas that have previously been passed over due to a high presence of ferrous junk.

=Built-in amplifier so you can hear soft target signals from deeper nuggets, more easily. The newly designed Li-lon battery pack now has an audio amplifier built in, allowing you to use an external speaker, without the need for any external booster. The design of the amplifier and the use of high-quality low noise components ensures the signal response is clear and crisp, without the added background hum of some boosters.

MinelabSEPro Minelab E-Trac. Minelab's most technologically advanced detector sets a new benchmark for the industry! E-TRAC is Minelab's most technologically advanced detector, incorporating unique Full Band Spectrum (FBS) Technology. Its sleek, sturdy design, innovative control panel, intuitive menus, clear LCD, robust lightweight coil and comprehensive targeting options set E-TRAC apart from any other detector available today. Minelab has taken a further ground breaking step by incorporating a USB interface, which will allow you to download and upload E-TRAC settings, User Modes and Discrimination Patterns using your own Personal Computer (PC). E-TRAC will locate valuable metal objects in a variety of mineralised ground conditions such as extremely salty soils, sea water, wet beach sand and highly magnetic ground conditions. By using the E-TRAC you can become one of the many successful detectorists who combine their passion for the outdoors with the excitement of discovering valuable coins, relics, gold and jewelry on a regular basis. E-TRAC Technology E-TRAC delivers FBS technology with Simultaneous Frequencies ranging from 1.5kHz - 100kHz through its powerful microprocessor. The frequency range means that the signal received from the detector coil is analysed from a wide range of responses. This allows E-TRAC's advanced signal processing to rate detected objects according to their ferrous and conductivity (FE-CO) characteristics and analyse more target information so that the target identification (ID) is more accurate. Minelab's Smartfind™ is a unique two-dimensional scale of discrimination. Smartfind™ graphically represents both the ferrous and conductivity properties on the same display. This combined with E-TRAC's target Discrimination ability eliminates signals from undesired targets and accepts signals from desired targets. E-TRAC's technology means: - Greater detecting depth - High sensitivity over a wide range of targets - Less interference from electromagnetic sources - More accurate identification of target characteristics E-TRAC Xchange E-TRAC Xchange allows you to download and upload detector settings and Discrimination Patterns via USB to your Personal Computer. This advanced feature is designed to allow you to quickly configure the E-TRAC to particular detecting environments and preferred targets. You can always share your experiences and settings with other detectorists. The installation CD and Xchange User Guide supplied with your E-TRAC ensure you can get started straight away. You can build a resource library charting your success with your E-TRAC. Download and store your valuable Settings, User Modes and Patterns for your favorite sites and upload them as required. There's no limit to the number you can store on your PC so make the most of your E-TRAC and never worry about losing your successful settings again!

MinelabSEPro Minelab Explorer SE Pro. Minelab's Multiple Frequency Full Band Spectrum (FBS) technology is the only technology in the world that provides the serious treasure hunter with both deep detection and deep precision discrimination, regardless of ground conditions and target type. Serious detectorists understand that every outing is a unique moment in time that needs to be enjoyed and maximised. Minelab's Explorer Professional detector will handle varying conditions with maximum results! Explorer's FBS technology automatically transmits28 multiple frequencies simultaneously from 1.5kHz to 100kHz. The lower the frequency used by a detector, the deeper it can penetrate. At low frequencies however, the sensitivity to small targets is sometimes reduced. The higher the frequency, the higher the sensitivity to small targets, but higher frequencies will not penetrate the ground as deeply. The increased frequency range of the Explorer SE Professional means more sensitive and accurate target identification at greater depths. FBS technology also improves the detector's ability to cancel ground mineralisation. Ground Balancing is automatic, so whatever the field conditions, the Explorer Professional maximises depth, sensitivity and discrimination.

Features:

=28 Frequency Full Band Spectrum™ (FBS) technology

=New lightweight, perfectly balanced waterproof ultra-light & ultra-tough 11" DD coil

=NiMH battery pack or 8 x AA Alkaline batteries for long battery life.
