Today we went to wales metal detecting to test the Minelab Vanquish 340 on the wet sand and it worked really well, for a budget price of £230 this machine is well worth the money..

I own a vanquish 440 and a simplex whp. I am still undecided which one to keep. I do the odd group dig inland and the odd beach dig. The vanquish seems really good but I can't quite get the same accuracy when digging holes as you guys. The simplex is spot on but the tones are staggered. Which are you preferring

Hey Martin, I've yet to go out ant play with the simplex but I here its great on land and not so good on wet sand. I love my little vanquish on the beach ⛱ I keep it as a back up to my nox.. hope to het out in a day or two and get some footage of the simplex:-) ill keep you updated.

Hello from Georgia! You guys are really great, and watching these videos has just about convinced me to get two of these---one for me, and one for my Dad. Would you agree this is a good purchase for someone just literally getting into the hobby? We plan on using them primarily on our own (family) farm; a few weeks ago, rain washed out a piece of a horse drawn plow-tooth that my great-great grandfather used (in what is now my front yard), so it sparked my interest. I want to find more family artifacts! Again, great job on the videos. Love the back and forth chat! God bless and stay healthy out there, friends!

@TheMetalDetectingChannel 4 жыл бұрын

Hey, thank you for the awesoem comment! it means a lot to us. My honest opinion is that the Vanquish 340 is one of the best metal detectors for the money! The one and only down side is that its not waterproof but you can buy a rain cover for the control box and then its fine. it uses the same technology as the more expensive machines like the equinox and works 100% perfect on land or sand.. you and your Dad will love it, plus metal detecing is one of the best hobbys around. Thank you for stopping by and watching our videos :-)

@ericcarr1612 4 жыл бұрын

@@TheMetalDetectingChannel Thanks again! For better or worse, we don't get as much rain (especially the seemingly random kind) as you guys do, so I'm not too fussed about the waterproofing. To be honest with you, I'm just wondering now if I need one of those carrot pinpointers...and I also will need one heck of a shovel, since our soil is VERY rocky. Anyway, thanks again, still going through your videos since I just found you today!

Hello Bill, the 340 is as basic as they come, there is sensitivity adjustment and that's about it, 3 modes to choose from, as you go up through the range you get better features like pinpoint etc, I'd always buy the best you can afford. If you was just getting into metal detecting or just want a great back up for say beach detecting and didn't want to spend so much then the 340 is the one
