Garrett Ace 300 Metal Detector

Product Information

The disadvantage is that it takes longer to get a sense of what the numbers mean – but if you just want a fast understanding of the target metal, there's still visual recognition. Target ID Numbers for Gold It has digital target identification from a scale of 0 to 99 so you’ll be able to determine whether you want to dig. The higher the number on the scale, the more conducive the metal is. So metals like silver will be at the top of the scale, while metals that are usually undesirable, like irons, will be in the lower range. No one coil is better than another, they just better suit your target preference and ground. How The ACE 300 Compares to Other Garrett Detectors? In fair conditions, the unit comfortably reaches a depth of 7 to 8 inches; in good conditions, you'll definitely get more depth. Unfortunately, it struggles in heavily mineralized grounds and on wet beaches, as do all beginner metal detectors and the rest of the ACE selection. The only option is to reduce the sensitivity to zero, but even then, you'll still get some false signals. I wish Garrett had spent more time focusing on improving stability in this area, but in reality, it only performs marginally better than the ACE 250, which is largely due to the 300's increased iron resolution. If you’re in the market for a new metal detector, the Garrett ACE 300 is certainly worth considering. It’s been designed with ease of use in mind, so even beginners should be able to start finding treasures in no time. But does it really deliver on its promise? Let’s take a closer look at this little machine and find out. Initial thoughts on the Garrett ACE 300

The ACE 300 is a continual wave device running at an 8 kHz single frequency. Even so, its frequency can be slightly adjusted by four minor levels. One advantage of the ACE 350 is a larger (8.5 x 11” DD) search coil (vs. 7 x 10”) for better ground coverage and enhanced performance in mineralized ground. PinPointing, again not something that the ace 150 included and in my eyes an absolute god send and time saver!Digital Target ID is a process of classifying a target based on its conductivity. The Garrett ACE 300 Metal Detector uses this process to identify targets in the ground. Does Garrett Ace 300 have adjustable ground balance function? No. The ground balance value is set by the manufacturer, therefore you won’t be able to adjust it as it can be done with metal detectors like AT Pro. After getting into the details of the Ace 300, it stands out as an excellent entry-level option for beginners and moderately-experienced detectorists. This is a straightforward, no-nonsense metal detector that keeps things simple to reduce costs while preserving as much performance as possible. kHz) Frequency compared to the Ace 250’s (6.5khz) this has really improved the sensitivity and depth capabilities of the Ace 250 combined with the new coil I previously mentioned.

Although they will still appear on the Digital Target ID, targets matching unselected segments won’t emit an audio signal, allowing you to ignore the stuff you don’t want easily. Without having to search, this two-digit readout helps you to more reliably distinguish various metal forms. The unique values of targets that are close together in the scanning spectrum can be used to distinguish them. Digital Target ID

This is a second video from the Garrett team, in this one you’ll learn some of the basic tips to get the most out of your Garrett ACE metal Detector. Garrett ACE 300 Owner’s Manual Links The ACE 300 is second in line to Garrett’s ACE throne, after the ACE 200 and beaten only by the ACE 400. The metal detector requires four AA batteries to power on. And, under normal circumstances, they should last about 40 hours. But, it’s important to keep a spare set close by just in case.
