Garrett EuroACE Review

• Powerful Double-D search coil
• High 8.25 kHz frequency
• Enhanced iron resolution for better iron discrimination
• Five search modes
• Continuous coin depth indicator
• Electronic pinpointing

The Garrett EuroACE is part of a long line of distinguished metal detectors from renowned manufacturer Garrett Electronics, who are widely viewed as one of the best producers of metal detectors from the last 50 years.

Their products are known for their quality and precision, being the top of the line when it comes to consumer metal detectors. These are items that wouldn’t be out of place at an archaeological excavation site, so when you’re looking for some serious hardware, look no further than Garrett metal detectors.

The Garrett EuroACE is another top-quality metal detector that is the perfect option for avid coin and relic hunters looking for some of the best hardware on the market. Boasting impressive power, a host of useful functions, and a simple user interface, the Garrett EuroACE has everything you could want from a metal detector.

While the control panel of the Garrett EuroACE may initially look complex, it’s actually quite simple, with six buttons controlling everything on the detector. This includes the following:

• Mode – goes through the pre-set discrimination modes
• Discrimination – allows adjustment of each discrimination mode
• Power – provides power with one button
• Sensitivity – used to adjust the sensitivity of the detector
• Pinpoint – used to pinpoint specific targets in the ground
• Green/Red Tick – confirms pre-set discrimination mode selected

The five pre-set modes are one of the most noteworthy features, as these allow users to choose a specific discrimination setting to accommodate their hunting. For instance, it the jewellery mode blocks out small pieces of iron, such as nails, allowing for better chance of detecting rings, bracelets, earrings, etc.

However, it’s also possible to adjust the discrimination mode to suit your needs. For example, using custom mode, you can adjust the settings of any of the pre-set modes and then save to use later.

Another useful pre-set is relic mode. By discriminating against smaller iron items while keeping the conductivity scale, relic mode searches for those hidden relics made from materials such as brass and bronze.

Like most detectors, there is also a pre-set coin mode, which helps to find coins by discriminating against smaller metals like ring pulls, pieces of iron, old foil etc.  As the Garrett EuroACE is designed for European users, it’s tuned to search for common European coin shapes and sizes.

The last pre-set is zero mode, which is basically just all-metal mode.

These modes are made better by the inclusion of the new enhanced iron resolution feature from Garret. This basically allows more distinction between different types of iron in the ground, giving the user the chance to adjust iron discrimination levels to very precise settings.

This means that you should find less trash and other useless junk in the ground when using the Garrett EuroACE, which is why it’s so popular with metal detecting enthusiasts.

Another gear feature is the double-D PROformance search coil. This is a powerful new addition to the Garrett EuroACE and one that greatly improves performance, particularly with depth detection, while it has unique shape that allows it to achieve more ground coverage for a coil of this size

The 8.5kHz frequency is certainly an impressive inclusion with the Garrett EuroACE, allowing the detector to have a much higher accuracy when detecting small objects. This is especially good for targeting rarer finds such as gold and is one of the big reasons why the Garrett EuroACE is viewed so highly.

While the depth detection isn’t as impressive as some of the other features, an average detection rate of 8-inches is still a good level of performance for a metal detector, although this may be less common depending on the ground conditions.

For when detecting in those loud or crowded locations, the Garrett EuroACE comes with Garrett’s clear sound easy stow headphones, which simply connect to the detector for in-ear audio detection.
