[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 365220, member: 1695"] Here's another option from Teknetics, purpose built for the young ones but not short on features - also only weighs a kilo. [url]http://www.losttreasures.com.au/teknetics-digitek/[/url] The Ace series is real good for the bell tone on goldies for easier identification, although they tend to be a bit nose heavy due to the combination of the coil and short rear stem. The Go-find series will probably also suit due to being able to adjust the shaft length, though it is not the easiest detector to pinpoint with due to the square coil. It does have a pretty simple interface and ground balance ability, but struggles a bit in junky areas. The main thing that concerns me with the Go-find is durability, especially with younger operators, and it is very limited with its hardwired coil (the Ace has other coil options). The Tesoro Compardre is a very light and simple detector to use, unfortunately it is way overpriced here in Australia, plus the coil is hardwired. [/QUOTE]
