Have been looking for a detector for my wife + found a new - w - warranty Ace 250 with headphones , rechargeable batteries , + charger for $189.00 with free shipping so I bought it . Hope she likes it . If not I'll use it for a back up + loaner . Now I'm going to really have to check out all those 250 posts . Any words to the wise will be greatly appreciated . Thanks in advance .

She'll love the Ace 250. It is a great beginner machine. Just practice with it and ask questions here on the forum and all us 250 users (and others) will help you and the Mrs. out.

One thing I will tell you iwth it that I have found is that when pinpointing, if the signal drops immediately when pulling away from the target, that it means it is a shallow target and is right under the front/center position of the inner coil.

HH with it

Dont get your feelings hurt is she starts pulling up more than you lol. She'll have fun and you're a sweetheart of a hubby to buy one for her.

At first have her run in the coin mode. Set the sens at 4 bars to start out. This little detector you bought is powerful. After she digs up a heap of treasure then turn the sens up a couple of notches. Then set the mode to jewelry. To pinpoint - detune the target - find the center left to right - then slowly pull the coil to you - shallow target right at the front of the inner coil - deeper target about an inch back toward you. Usually a 4 inch plug will get them all. I would buy a sniper coil for it soon!
