If you are looking for a Seben metal detector review then read on to take an in depth look at the Seben Extreme. This metal detector has many uses and can be used in many different environments, but I do not want to get ahead of myself so read on to see what this Seben metal detector review is all about.

What You Are Looking For?

Plain and simple I am going to get straight to the point of this metal detector review – stay away from the Seben Extreme. There are many other products from Seben that are of a solid quality and construction, but the Seben Extreme is not one among them.

This metal detector is listed as a high performance metal detector. But in my experience I found it to be completely useless. They say that it is used by archaeologists, researchers and other specialists but I have a hard time believing that anyone could find this thing useful.

According to the instructions the Seben Extreme Power has the ability to be adjusted with extremely high precision for each special application. In my experience there was only one application for the Seben Extreme, as a high powered boat anchor. Not only was it heavy and clunky, it bleeped and blooped at odd times and was unable to detect even the most base of metals.

While the manual says that you should be able to adjust the detector for metal of varying types, but I had a hard time getting the metal detector to detect anything. According to what I read it should differentiate these metals on an optical and auditory nature, but I found it impossible to configure and use. The manual says that it can detect metal at depths of up to 2.5 meters in the water, but I find that to be hard to believe considering it was impossible to detect coins on the lawn in my back yard.

Was It Defective?

Maybe the unit I got was defective and I do not want this metal detector review to be completely negative but I really could find nothing positive to say about this unit. Your experience could be completely different from mine. In my opinion, simply stay away. In the machines defense though I never did get in touch with the manufacturer so I can not say for sure if something was wrong with the unit or not, but looking back there probably was. That could seriously skew my bounty hunter metal detector review. Either way, I would never buy one again.

Tesoro Tiger Shark Underwater Metal Detector Review

I have been a metal hunter for years and over time I have learned that the absolute best place to find things is out in the water. In order to do this you are going to need a robust metal detector and after years of searching I think I have found mine. I have read hundreds of different underwater metal detector reviews including fisher metal detector reviews. While these proved ultimately fruitless, the process of looking through them has helped me to be able to write a decent underwater metal detector review.

Used Metal Detectors Reviews -
Whites Coinmaster 2900D Trooper

This is a great little detector. This is a picture of my treasure. There was some trash dug – {one large piece of iron at 6 inches, crushed aluminum can and other large pieces of aluminum} as well as 56 cents in coins. One quarter, 3 dimes and a zinc penny. All this in around 25 minutes of very casual hunting.

Since I own one of these I thought I would give you a review of this detector. I had given this detector to my father many years ago for a Christmas present. He really did like it but it wasn’t used a lot. Retirement seemed to keep he and mom traveling in their Rv with little time to use his detector.

The 2900 D as for as I can tell is the same as the 3000D less the meter. I belive White’s calls it a 2900 S3

This past weekend the weather was damp and hot here on the gulf coast of Texas but cooler than it had been in quite sometime so I was thinking about dad and decided me and the 2900D should get reacquainted again.

The 2900 is dead simple to operate. It has 4 control knobs. Each control knob has a (P) Preset marking. Just turn on set and go basically. The four knobs are Tune (sensitivity) , ground balance, discrimination, and a combination volume and on off switch. It uses a single 9volt battery with a low battery indicator light. There is room for a spare battery also. Few inexpensive detectors have a manual ground balance which can come in very handy in some parts of the country. Although the change in volume and sound can help determine whether the target is good or bad it is not as good as say a Tesoro. Using iron discrimination only I have found it to be very good at ignoring small iron and pick up a nickel close by. Some detectors have problems with this.

It also has a Retune button located on the end of the handle. This will retune the detector after changing settings and can also be used to help with pinpointing.

This is another simple inexpensive detector from the early 1980’s that will find just as much or more as a new $500.00 detector. The only difference is you will have to set the discrimination low to keep from loosing rings and nickels and dig more trash. But that’s mostly true with a $500.00 detector also.
