The professional metal detector Safari from the Australian company Minelab is distinguished by a friendly interface and ease of use.
Design
The design is the most familiar: S-shaped rod of three parts. The DD 11 FBS (butterfly type) reel is claimed to be waterproof, as proof of which the cable is securely hidden inside the rod.
The device is not the lightest (1.65 kg), but the weight is not immediately felt. The handle and armrest are soft, comfortable and non-slip. No one has ever heard the backlash and squeaks of Safari. It is reliable, but it's ok to buy waterproof protection for the control unit, otherwise, it is better not to use the device in the rain.
Key features
The main advantage of Safari over analogues is a wide operating range of 28 frequencies (from 1.5 to 100 kHz).
The detector has four presets for discrimination of ferrous and non-ferrous metals in the range from (-10 to 40), the "Pin-Point" function, noise cutoff and threshold tone. The accuracy of determining the location and size is impressive. Safari is able to find small objects at a depth of 35 cm.
Moreover, the detector is “trainable”! If you pass a coil over a metal object, its "image" can be hammered into memory. It is possible to store 4 custom discrimination settings. There is also a dual mode for determining the density of iron junk and automatic ground balancing. But manual, unfortunately, no. Not happy about the lack of display backlight.
battery life
Safari is powered by 8 AA batteries, providing up to 14 hours of continuous searches. The indicator is frankly weak against the background of the closest competitors, the battery life of which is one and a half to two times higher with half the number of required batteries.
Otherwise, Minelab Safari is reliability, modern ergonomics and great functionality. A very good model that justifies its cost.
