GARRETT APEX TESTS
Comments The results below are achieved by using it in 20khz, I found this to be by far the best option, the Multi freq option was dire, It works, and you will find things with it, but it gives better performance by using it in a single freq 20khz or 15khz. There are far better detectors out here for less or the same money. Pros Build quality/design excellent Cons Over priced and a flop as far as Multi freq is concerned |

|
DEPTH TESTS The depth tests are set up to gauge the power of the detector, all iron is removed from the hole. Various size items are buried at good depths |

10’’ |
|||
|
5 PENCE MAXIMUM DEPTH |
8’’ |

|
CUT ¼ OF HAMMERED PENNY MAXIMUM DEPTH |
4’’ |
|||
|
CAN A HOARD OF 100 MIXED COINS BURIED AT 18’’ GIVE A SIGNAL |
YES |
|||
|
DISCRIM TESTS The tests below are to see if the detector is capable of giving a signal on a non ferrous target while iron is placed on top of it and around it at different depths |
||||
|
CAN I GET A SIGNAL FROM A 20 PENCE BURIED AT 8’’ 2 NAILS BURIED AT 2’’ DIRECTLY ABOVE IT |
NO |
|||
|
CAN I GET A SIGNAL FROM A 20 PENCE BURIED AT 8’’ 2 NAILS BURIED AT 5’’ DIRECTLY ABOVE IT |
YES |
|||
|
CAN A GET A SIGNAL FROM A 20 PENCE BURIED AT 8’’ 2 NAILS SITTING ON TOP OF COIN |
YES |
|||
|
CAN I GET A SIGNAL FROM A HAMMERED PENNY 20 NAILS ALL AROUND IT BURIED AT 2’’ |
YES |
|||
|
CAN I GET A SIGNAL FROM A HAMMERED COIN BURIED AT 2’’ A LARGE/RUSTY IRON HOOK IS BURIED 3’’ BELOW IT |
YES |
|||
|
CAN I GET A SIGNAL FROM A HAMMERED PENNY NEXT TO 4’’ BOLT BURIED AT 2’’ |
HALF |
|||
|
CAN I GET A SIGNAL FROM A 20 PENCE BURIED AT 2’’ 2 NAILS ALSO BURIED AT 2’’-NAILS 4’’ APART COIN BETWEEN THEM |
YES |
|||
|
CAN I GET A SIGNAL FROM A 20 PENCE BURIED AT 5’’ 2 NAILS BURIED AT 2’’ DIRECTLY ABOVE IT-4’’ APART |
YES |
|||
|
CAN I GET A SIGNAL FROM A 20 PENCE BURIED AT 8’’ WITH 2 NAILS BURIED AT 2’’ DIRECTLY ABOVE IT 4’’ APART |
NO |
|||
|
CAN I GET A SIGNAL FROM A 20 PENCE BURIED AT 6’’ WITH 4 NAILS BURIED AT 5’’ DIRECTLY ABOVE IT 4 NAILS AT 7’’ DIRECTLY BELOW IT AND 4 NAILS ON THE SAME LEVEL |
YES |
|||
|
COKE/SENSITIVITY A few low conductive targets will give the same signal as Coke , so if you are rejecting Coke you may miss them |
||||
|
CAN IT FIND A GOLD CHAIN WHEN COKE IS REJECTED |
YES |
|||
|
CAN IT FIND A LOW CONDUCTIVE CUT ¼ WHEN COKE IS REJECTED |
YES |
|||
|
CAN A GOLD CHAIN BE FOUND WHEN COKE IS NOT REJECTED |
YES |
|||
|
CAN A LOW COND CUT ¼ BE FOUND WHEN COKE IS NOT REJECTED |
YES |
|||
|
CAN IT FIND A LOW CONDUCTIVE VERY THIN SILVER EARRING BURIED AT 2’’ |
YES |
|||
