Minelab Gold Metal Detector Model # SD 2200v2 Review

Minelab Gold Metal Detector Model # SD 2200V2 is one of the more reliable metal detectors that will help you find gold when you're treasure hunting. The SD 2200V2 gold metal detector comes with a rechargeable battery pack, vehicle charger, headphones, 3-year factory warranty from Minelab as well as a host of other great features. The Minelab gold metal detector weighs around 5 lbs and is lightweight, but packs a punch in helping you find items you're searching for. The detector comes with an 11" coil, but you can add an 8" or 18" coil to the metal detector if you want to adjust for the area you're searching.

The Minelab SD2200V2 uses technology called Multi-Period Sensing (MPS) that is superior over traditional metal detectors in minimizing mineral interference that gives a false hope of finding gold or treasure. The SD2200V2 model allows you to pick up signals at deeper depths and it helps eliminate potential interference signals. This gold metal detector only produces a signal on metals that you hope to find such as a shiny gold nugget.

The Minelab SD2200V2 has five great features that will help you in your treasure hunts that consist of the following:

The discrimination feature discards strong signals from ferrous scrap, by providing more time for detecting and less time digging up unwanted trash that has no value. This feature allows you to pinpoint for the exact metals when you're metal detecting.

The automatic ground balance feature allows you to maintain the most favorable ground balance maximizing metal detector depths at all times while hunting for treasure. This is an important feature to maintain a search that is deep where other metal detectors can't locate a signal.

The automatic tuning control helps with a push of a button on the gold metal detector to minimize the sound effects of electromagnetic hindrance that is common in detecting for treasure.

The Minelab SD 2200v2 has a boost amplifier feature where you can pick up hard to hear signals into signals that indicate a potential digging opportunity for gold, coins or jewelry. This feature is great for people that are hard of hearing and need to hear a louder signal.

In conjunction with the boost amplifier you have a feature called tone control where you can adjust so you can hear the signal you want.

The SD 2200v2 model gold metal detector by Minelab is lightweight and very precise in helping you hunt for gold. This metal detector would be good to use around old gold mining camps throughout the world as well as areas that are known to be full of trash because you can minimize discrimination to allow you to focus on the true metals you're searching for and this gold metal detector will read signals at depths other detectors miss. This gold metal detector retails for around $2,000
