Comments

Whimsical16: It works! But, unfortunately, so far it's just been a very expensive trash collector. I've found lots of bottle caps, coins, paperclips, and empty cans of sardines. But, it is very sensitive, and if there were jewelry out there, I bet you it'd find it! Battery life is a little on the short side, but still lasts a surprisingly long time.

Stefan Neter: Hat im Urlaub kläglich versagt. Ist einfach nur Elektroschrott.

steventhehistorian: I've taken this metal detector on two dives and it's proven to be a handy tool underwater.

Pros:

Ease of Use: Simply scan the bottom and the detector vibrates and flashes a bright blue LED upon detecting a conductive object.
Accuracy: It can detect metal objects buried up to 8 inches deep in silt.
Durability: The unit is robust with minimal potential failure points. The battery port, the only real potential point of failure, is well-sealed with a double O-ring.
Cost-Effective: It offers great value for its price.
Battery Life: Lasted for at least 2 hours in my experience, and it was still going strong.
Cons:

Powering On/Off: The vertical positioning for 5 seconds to power on/off means it can inadvertently turn on or off when being carried around. Removing the batteries is a workaround.
No Power State Indication: It doesn't show if it's on or off unless it's detecting metal.
Carrying Inconvenience: There's no efficient way to secure it during a dive without it being cumbersome. If it floats vertically, it keeps detecting your scuba cylinder, leading to constant vibrations.
Conclusion:
For those seeking basic functionality at a low...

JoAnne Turnbull: Do not buy!
My husband has purchased these twice in the last year as they have good reviews. The first one he thought was just faulty and purchased a second one.
He used each one less than one week and they no longer work. He tried to find manufacturer in China to inquire about the one year warranty with no luck.

Underwater metal detector: And the item works amazing. It vibrates makes a sound and has a light on it and it works awesome. I’ve used it now. Couple times scuba diving.

Kyle Watts: Only took her for one dive. I did notice it didn’t work on all jewelry but awesome for diving! Love it

Justin: Works as expected. The included bag is snug and not made of what I would consider beach friendly material. Uses a 9v battery that lasted about 4 days of heavy use. Rechargeable battery would make this even better. Tone made when something is detected is a bit soft on a noisy beach, granted my son was walking around with it dangling at his side so not as intended. It’s def waterproof and held up in the ocean shallows.

JorjiiJorjii: I took this metal detector, snorkeling, five different days for an hour at a time or more each time. I’m still on the same battery 19 V battery it turns on and off exactly as explained. I left mine on the whole time that I was in the water didn’t find any diamond rings or Spanish coins ha! However, I did find metal objects it’s kind of astounding when you think about the square footage hundreds of thousands of square feet of sand on the bottom of the ocean the chances of you running into even a bottle cap difficult to calculate…. It was a lot of fun felt like we were on a treasure hunt and the nice part about it is while you’re snorkeling you’re looking for shells and you’re looking at fish and you’re looking at your beautiful surroundings. You don’t have to pay attention to the metal detector. You just let that sweep back-and-forth… you don’t need to watch it because when it vibrates it wakes you up and let’s you know that it just hit on something and so you don’t have to miss the beauty while you’re sweeping hoping that the metal detector finds some thing. pretty perfect!! I think it’s very well-made. It seems tough and sturdy. I actually used it...

TownieTen: I don't want to rate 1-star and hurt anyone's business. It's more of a toy and not an actual metal detector.
Also, before submerging it, watch a couple youtube channels. The creators will tell you that you need to waterproof the battery housing first. If you don't, it will leak. Two examples were a glue gun and plumbers tape. Secondly, to test it, you should place typical items underneath it like beer tabs, nails, or other small metal items to see if it even beeps. My experience was that it beeped at the ring on my hand above it. Maybe my ring is heavier so it gravitates toward that instead of something smaller but still. The range underneath was not as promised. In essence, it doesn't work at at this price, whether it's a kid's toy or not, it should. I do consider that I got a lemon. Sometimes that happens. I already got something different or I'd try a replacement.

RETURN BY QR CODE ONLY- I wish amazon would include this in the description or flag it at checkout.
Only a UPS store can take QR codes. We only have a ups drop off point in my town. A UPS store is 52 miles away. So if you don't drive- you're out of luck. They can't even generate a UPS pick up even though...
