detector Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 hi guy's i have a question i need an answer for. i want to purchase a gpx 5000 for big targets under 1.5 meter, but i heard some people talk about "Eddy Current". They claim it affect gpx detectors; therefore is not good for hunting big relics! What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kostas 13 Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 I guarantee there is no problem with the right coil and proper gpx handling will easily find deep targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the guy in the picture is giving it a thumbs up so all is well 👍 Good size to weight and I nearly bought one but decided 18” was enough (Detech DD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
