New Detech Metal Detector - The Chaser


Recommended Posts


Hey Ron, no worries. In one regard it really is nothing new at all. JAMFD - Just Another Mid Frequency Detector in a world already flooded with similar units. I have lost count of the number of single frequency detectors running in the 13 - 15 kHz range. Do we really need another?

I do like the look and the handle style is much more comfortable on my wrist. Yes its another vlf ...but pretty impressive on how clear the tone is on that non ferrous target with the iron nail over it. For me that would be the key to buying one, not necessarily the depth. Some detectors for my ears at least have way to much chatter..in trashy areas..would love to see more tests done by Detech in showing us what makes this one different form the others.

I agree AuWander and lest anyone assume otherwise I did not mean to slight the Chaser. There are many subtle things that make me like a detector, and how it feels on my arm and how it sounds is high on the list. All the more so when depth is so very close on the top of the line machines as to make little difference most of the time. At the end of the day, the more options the better.
