National Geographic Junior Metal Detector

Product Information

In this article, I will be explaining everything you need to know about the National Geographic Pro metal detector so you can decide if it’s the right metal detector for you. By comparing the national geographic junior metal detector to any dedicated metal detector designed for grown-up detectorists, you will conclude that it is not designed to help find valuable items. In fact they were finding so many “treasures” that I had to put a limit on how much rusty metal I would allow in the house – haha!

A metal detecting shovel needs to be well made for prying up dirt and cutting through grass and roots. It’s even a good metal detector for people 14 years and up to get out and try their hand at metal detecting. Now that you know who the National Geographic metal detector is for we will proceed with the full review. Would you rather use a small handhold pinpointer to know if you have dug up the target or grab your detector everytime and scan a clump of dirt.Metal detectorists are re-writing the books with our history so it really depends on what you’re hoping to find in terms of the best location. As well as the machine, it comes with a carry bag to help you get it to your site safely as well as batteries and a foldable shovel to enable you to hit the ground running. When items are located, in addition to the LCD display, the unit gives one of three audio tones, depending on the material the object is made of. As you get more familiar with the National Geographic PRO Series Metal Detector there are many opinions on the proper settings.

Working days are defined as Monday-Friday 8am-7pm inclusive, excluding Saturday, Sunday and Public Holidays. Gloves: You will be rummaging around in the ground trying to find the signal that the machine is giving off so alot of people wear gloves to protect their hands. Also Minelab one of the leading manufacturers of metal detectors is the manufacturer of this metal detector so that can give you some confidence in your purchasing decision of this metal detector. Give them a test run by hiding the five replica doubloons in your garden until they’ve got the hang of sweeping enough to venture further afield. Like I mentioned earlier, the National Geographic metal detector is a good metal detector to start with and young children can take advantage of the fun of metal detecting with the junior version.

If you are looking for a perfect guide book that lays out the basics of metal detecting have a look at this book.

But for example, if you turn off the icon that corresponds with aluminum or iron the NG metal detector will not trigger a beep for those types of items. The junior version is more of a toy than a metal detector but if you have young children interested in the hobby then the junior version could be the way to go. The depth indicator on the control panel alerts you to how deep your target is shallow, medium, or deep. It does also have a pinpoint location option on it but we still want to get a handheld pinpoint metal detecting device like the guys on The Curse of Oak Island. Increase the sensitivity for deeper targets but if you are metal detecting in areas that have a lot of powerlines or interference you might have to turn the sensitivity down or you will receive false signals.When getting your child a toy to encourage going outside, consider their personality and energy levels. TIP: Once you’ve rinsed your scooping bucket in the water shuffle out it’s contents in a straight line across the shore to make it easier to narrow down what you are detecting.
