get the 250. some dealers will give you a digger and headphones as part of the package. They are sufficient till you can afford good ones.

You should've gotten the 250...........seriously. The only other thing you would've needed is a good trowel.........how hard can one of those be to get?

 

[chadbrame]

hmm maybe ur right O_o

r well it dun now


anyhu, i have like £40 2 spend on a few dates

ace 250 for sure friend. i am still using the tuff old butcher knife i bought for a buck u s twenty for years ago. you can get a set of cheap head phones and buy new ones with your finds. it is not the fancy accessories but you ability to learn what a decent machine is telling you. i don't know the ace bought i saw a lot of good posts and finds with it. HH

You should have no problem cancelling the order on the 150 and and upgrading to the 250. Dealers like that!

Like others have already said, you'll find deals on headphones and a good
stout knife will work in the mean time.

Better to have a better detector than settle for less. Besides, if your ma doesn't get into the hobby, you can always
"borrow" it hehe.

Isn't the only difference the 250 has a PP mode? Don't see the big deal going with the 150.

Just leave the gold coin find to day 2 or 3.

Hey there Iron Patch.........
Most people who have never used an ACE 250 would not know this little detail..........but the Pin Pointer as I have mentioned in previous posts that I've written is 1/2 the machine. It is an invaluable tool. Firstly, you can quickly gather if you're dealing with a junk item or coin because the PP'er will be hesitant to engage. You'll hear a warbly sound as opposed to the smooth sound you'd hear on a coin. Also, running over the item (Scratching it), gives you a really good idea of its size and whether you have a coin target or something larger.
Another important feature of the PP'er is the ability to use it to determine if you have a trash item in the vicinity of your target......you'll hear them both in PP mode. And for those deeper 250 hits........you can confirm if there is something actually down there with the PP'er, as opposed to a falsing signal. Trust me when I tell you..........I've used this machine alot. You have 1/2 the machine the minute that PP'er is gone.

Why ask for advice and then not listen... oh sorry I see you are 15....

Anytime you can get something a little better you should.... The digging trowel could gave waited and you could have used your "mums" until it broke....

Hmm...Since you have coke (unburnt coal) the ACE series can have some problems better would have been a detector that can ground balance out the minerals.
The Ace has preset ground balance meaning it has been adjusted for a certain "type/amount" of mineralization.
