Review: An excellent choice for entry-level metal detecting. - My Bounty Hunter Tracker IV metal detector recently ran into some issues, so I decided to see if I could find a reasonably-priced replacement as this time of year is the best time for metal detecting. This RICOMAX metal detector was the best-priced one I could find that actually included a working LCD screen. I really like that this metal detector utilizes an LCD panel that actually gives you an estimate about what is it is detecting before you take the time and effort to dig into the ground. The LCD panel is also useful in many other ways, as it gives you a depth estimate and even tells you how your battery life is looking. I especially love that feature as there’s nothing worse than wanting to use a device only to find it is dead. Setting the detector up was very easy. You really just have to connect a small handful of parts, insert 2 9V batteries, and you’re good to go. The package even contains a small shovel for digging up your loot. A nice touch. The Bounty Hunter metal detector has an analog discrimination gauge which in all honesty is just a pain to use. I love the discrimination feature that this detector features and have found it to be pretty accurate. It also emits different tones depending on what it detects. I tested out the detector with a few different types of metal, including a gold wedding ring, and was impressed to find that the detector was able to point that out to me. I now know that I have a powerful tool to use if myself or a loved one ever loses a valuable piece of jewelry.
Review: Extremely good metal detector! - This metal detector is only $100, and works very good. It is extremely lightweight so your arm does not get tired. It has a velcro strap for your arm. It has discrimination so you can eliminate what types of metals you dont want to pick up. The pinpoint mode works extremely well to pinpoint exactly where the metal is. It was super easy to put together, took me about 2 minutes to assemble. It also came with a fold up metal shovel, the shovel also has a pick on the end which is really cool. It comes in a pouch that you can put onto your belt! The only problem I think I have had so far is I went a few inches in the water with it, and It seems to be randomly picking up 1 cent and 10 cent after I got out of the water. Not sure if it is perfectly water proof, or if my coil was not sealed all the way. I might have to get my coil replaced but they said they replace parts for free and it has a lifetime warranty, so if it keeps doing it when I go back out, I will have it replaced. Other than that, it is a very good metal detector, definitely recommended!

## Features

- TRUE DISCRIMINATION MODE - This metal detector can detect metals including iron, aluminum, gold, bronze, silver and their articles in all-metal mode. Just press the button, you can simply set the target range Up to 7.1’’ inches deep or eliminate the metal you don’t want. Then, you can accurately find the certain metal you want. The crossed frame is for items eliminated and two 9V alkaline batteries are required
- HIGHER SENSITIVE & WATERPROOF SEARCH COIL - The bigger the search coil is, the higher the sensitivity. The increased size of the search coil to 10 inches makes metal detecting MORE EFFICIENT. And the WATERPROOF stem and coil enable you to use our metal explorer underwater, especially suitable for outdoor activities, on the beach or in the stream. But it is should be noted that the control box is not waterproof
- MORE INTUITIVE LCD CONTROL BOX - A control box with LCD will simplify your metal detecting a lot. The detection mode, sensitivity level, battery condition, and volume level can be known at a glance. An arrow displayed below the target icon will clearly tell you detecting a object. The depth of the target is also displayed. Compared to the knob and dial, button and LCD are obviously more accurate and convenient
- P/P FUNCTION & DISTINCTIVE AUDIO PROMPT - There are distinctive audio tones in our metal detector for different types of metal. So after a period of time use, you can tell what type of metal you've detected just by audio tones. And the P/P function enables you to pinpoint a target accurately.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great! Just be sure to buy a nylon replacement bolt at your local hardware store.
*by J***H on July 9, 2018*

Pros. Cheap Easy to use Seems to work fine. Does the job at detecting metals. Cons. Plastic bolt that holds the coil to the pole is brittle and snapped off when I tightened it down. I just got it tight enough to keep the coil from moving and then it snapped. I went to the local hardware store an bought a nylon bolt, 2 nylon washers, and a nylon wingnut. This works so much better than the brittle bolt that came with the metal detector. I'm about 5'7" and its just a little on the short side fully extended but not so bad it would cause issues. Overall this would make a great gift for someone that wanted a metal detector or if you just need a cheap one to play around with. Just be sure to go get a nylon bolt, washers, and wingnut just so you don't have to worry about the included plastic bolt snapping.
