Thank you to everyone who supported the contest by sharing the word and making your submitions. We are proud to announce that we have chosen the winner.
The overall quality of the entries were at an all time high and the judges has a hard time selecting who will take home the grand price. We had submitions from all over the world and our only regret is that only one name could be chosen.

These were our top contestants:

USA- Quest | BigWaveDave

UK- Conquest | Samuraitrev

Germany- Relic Quest | Steini Platte

France- eQuest | Galinette83

Worldwide- Atlantis | Ethan Fowler

We are proud to announce that the oficial name for our first ground search metal detector name is: QUEST!

Congratulations BigWaveDave, the winner of the XPointer Wader Li and Quest Pro Metal Detectors. This entry received the most votes, was the best fit for the product and has been crowned the winner! Our 4 runner-up will each receive a Quest Pro Metal Detector.

Congrats to all the winners, but I thought the contest originally said they were giving away 6 detectors...I see 5 winners announced. Am I missing something here?

Yea, I have been thinking about this...I'd like to do a you tube style video, and post it here for all my Tnet friends.. I need to learn how to do that I guess.:laughing7: Short of that, I look forward to learning the "Quest", its features and performance, and passing that forward.

I have been on cloud 10 all day... crazy!
