The Bounty Hunter VLF Metal Detector is an ideal entry-level tool for hobbyists and casual treasure hunters seeking reliable performance without a steep learning curve. Designed for general-purpose detecting, it offers simple controls and automatic ground balancing, making it easy to start exploring right out of the box. A standout feature is its Trash Eliminator, which lets users fine-tune detection to avoid common junk metals like nails and pull-tabs.
This detector performs well across varied terrain—beaches, parks, or backyards—thanks to its built-in VLF (Very Low Frequency) technology that adapts to ground conditions automatically. It detects a range of metals including coins, jewelry, and relics, with audio tones that help identify the target type. The analog meter provides a visual signal strength indicator for easier pinpointing, and users can adjust sensitivity to minimize interference in noisy environments.
The Bounty Hunter VLF features a sturdy yet lightweight frame with an adjustable shaft and padded armrest for comfortable extended use. Powered by two standard 9V batteries, it offers solid runtime and dependable performance. Its intuitive layout and plug-and-play design ensure a frustration-free user experience, making it a trusted tool for hours of outdoor fun.
