have you tried Emailing the manifacture company providing them with the serial number of ur stick and check if you bought a real one or just a copy ?
or did u get it directly from the company ?
Yea I have with no response. Not sure if the war over with Russia an Ukraine is effecting them or what! I’ve never had a problem before
 
No, a mag detects anomalies in the Earth's magnetic field, caused by static-magnetic elements, namely iron, nickel, and cobalt. It cannot detect lead, silver, gold, copper, etc.
Magnetometers are routinely used to measure "structure" in the crust of the Earth. It's important to know because Gold and other metals and minerals are most often related to faulting and other crustal movement that create anomalies in the Earth's magnetic field. A LOW COST magnetometer has very limited application in detection of metals of interest in treasure hunting.

You need the specification.

Here's a link to magnetometers and their applications:


The subject takes time and study along with experience. I wish it was simple and easy. :)

Diurnal correction:

The magnetic field of the earth varies while standing in place. To perform a survey, you need TWO preferably identical magnetometers. One (reference mag) is set up in a fixed location to monitor changes in the magnetic field. The second to measure the magnetic field along a survey line. Time must be recorded at the reference station and along the survey line. The reference field is subtracted from the total field.

Lots of good advice here! I hope this helps.

Thank you ! I will read the link in just a few. Again I appreciate it for taking the time to respond.
 
We may need one more thread "Magnetometers" to avoid confusion, avoid corruption of the Gpr thread and direct readers to the appropriate discussion.

will make sure to take a look thanks alot.

I have v done some digging tried to build it from skratch but i can get my hands on the parts its just not available wehere i am.
regular detectors are not cutting it for me the type of hunting i do needs higher depths detection espacialy something like a magnetometer that can possibly detect voids.
