😂 lol all I wanted to do, is forward it to NYC Detecting. didn't really think of it as a review... everyone is buying these new R2D2 robot sounding detectors, truth be told, an old Whites goes just as deep, or deeper. may just take a little more time. I don't want to hurry when detecting. it's not a race! it's supposed to be relaxation
Yep that's the same unit only with auto ground balance. Here's the thing, you will definitely get a response from a White's 5900 or 6000 if there's any type of metal in the ground, junk or gold or anything in between. The thing that the new detectors do better is give you tones to discriminate between them someone more precisely. And they will respond quicker if the items are on top of each other or very close together. But the whites is still going to tell you if there's something there. Having said that I found a pile of roofing nails and pieces of tin buried with a handful of coins near an Old Farm Spring House left there from doing a roof job decades ago. And I heard different tones with the 5900 meaning clear belt tone compared to staticky broken up discriminator . What the new digitals have done is instead of giving us a broken up staticky tone they give us a completely different tone for scrap, different from a good hit for gold or silver or copper etc. But those newfangled detectors still get tricked a lot and you have to dig a lot of junk if you go metal detecting that's all there is to it.
