"Yeth, but how does it thtack up against the Equinoxth 800 ?? " ...Nice one for this review John! I think it is important to keep a relevant perspective on our hobby. It's not all about 'peer-ist attitudes' or crass brand orientated bigotry. Good on Dr Otek for providing a fun past-time metal detector set up for those who cannot simply go buy an expensive 'first-time must impress' machine, in order to show how serious a detectorist they are (not). Bang On!
I don't mind the tone at all. I'm a beginner. I Got up 10 in on mine. Big old pipe in the ground. I like simple. I'm pretty sure it'll do the basic things the more expensive ones do. From playing with it out sides pretty good. Identified items pretty deep. I didn't think it would go to deep but it does. Depends on the size of the item from what I gather. I got over 11 acres and about to put this to work. Good video by the way.
The video is very good. I just bought the same detector and I want to know if I can change the ground balance in any way, since when detecting in wet sand it gives many false signals and interferences. Thank you in advance. Cordial greetings from Uruguay
Hi mate , good review but might give that one a miss and stick with the Teknetics T2 SE limited edition 😁 take care my friend and keep up the good work ATB Rob 👍👍
Ok. If DrOtek isn't up to the task what would you recommend. I'm looking to get into this but I want to buy one only detector so I want to start with a good one.
Hey Hunter enjoyed your review on the Dr. Otek metal detector it's the first one I've seen. And for a little over $100 not too bad. Obviously it's not going to win any awards. But it does have a couple of features that a lot of other metal detectors in that price range do not have. Might get one for my youngest son that's just starting to get interested in metal detecting.
@@thehuntergt do they have a model that's above this one? I've been watching you so long now hunter that I kind of feel like you're part of my family. Love you brother. Hope all is well with you and your children.
@@dannywilliams3516 Thanks man. Very kind of you. Much love back at ya. I am not sure what their lineup consists of honestly. I just know they make other ones. Pretty sure they are intro level like this.
@@thehuntergt I don't and didn't know that thanks, Ive been using a Garrett ace 250 for a year and found a lot of stuff and really happy with it apart from wet sand, I would like to upgrade and have been looking around, I like the Garrett and would like to move to the AT pro, but before I do is there another out there as good but not as expensive? Thanks for your reply and experience. Much appreciated.
@@maxcdc2282 Have you looked at The NoktaMakro Simplex? It is waterproof and every bit as good as the AT Pro at half the price. Best price to performance ratio in all of detecting - in my opinion.

Anybody comparing this with a Nox is daft beyond belief lol...but you know somebody out there is doing so. Thanks for watching my friend.
Why do people want to compare pricier items with the less expensive? It's just basic common sense not to even bother.
That's still an impressive little detector Hunter, not bad for the money!
Thanks for watching Jerry!
Good HONEST review John and we expect nothing less from you. 😉 Good first detector or a gift for a youngster.
Thanks Andrew!
I'll stick with the F75 although cool to see what others are capable of. Tones for me are annoying .... just saying. Thanks for keeping it real THGT!!
They are for sure bell tones based of the Ace series...no doubt about that.
Its a good machine to begin with to get you into the hobby, the bag pouch is good
Thanks for watching - and for showing up to the stream Tuesday!
It is definitely priced accordingly 😊
Don't trade your F75 in lol
@@thehuntergt Hahaha :)

For less than $100 after tax (using the $20 coupon code) that is not really bad. Pretty good for a basic beginner detector!
It is not bad for what it is. I could see a person being happy - and wanting to move on to the next level at the same time.
Hey hunter I actually have the dr otek pointer my first one it’s actually surprisingly rugged Ben dropped a few time hard still works good
I think the one I reviewed is still going strong as well. Gave it to a friend.
Newly subscribed 👍 great review. Thank you for your sharing ♥ from the UK 🇬🇧
What is the manufacturing country for this device ?
I think I would rather have a bounty hunter tracker 4. it does work just not my cup o tea!!!!
A fair statement. Thanks for watching Papa!
How do you set it to find a gold engagement ring inside an apartment? We can't figure it out!
How much money from Philippines to US DOLLAR

Greetings. The ground balance is fixed and cannot be set or changed.
I don’t need any more md

Won't be selling my T2, that is for sure. 😎 ATB my friend.
Can this detect gophers even if they have low blood iron levels?
Maybe - as XR stands for X-Ray. Make sure to wear a lead vest.
@@thehuntergt I always do

Take a look at the Simplex...it is more expensive at $254 dollars - but is 10X better than this - and waterproof.

Thanks Danny. Not a bad detector at all for the price. They make some other models and pointers as well. Worth a look. Thanks for watching my friend.

@@thehuntergt okay thank you Hunter. Have an awesome day buddy. Hope you're doing a whole lot better.
@@dannywilliams3516 Doing ok. Just waiting on a surgery date. Hopefully sooner than later.
Will it work on a dry sand beach ?
Yes - I don't see why not.
Brilliant review, (I'm from Ireland) thanks
Thanks - glad you enjoyed it.
@@thehuntergt just looked at the hoomya tx960 looks good, do you know anything about it? Cheers
@@maxcdc2282 I know it uses a knock-off Minelab coil - so I cannot recommend it personally. Not a fan of companies who copyright infringe.

8 of them is enough
Thanks a lot! I'm going to get this one. Can you recommend a pointer as well that's reasonably priced?
My pleasure. Check out the Kuman or GP pointers on Amazon.
@@thehuntergt thanks again. You've been a big help. How much did you get for that silver ring that you found in this video?
So what is the next one up from this ? I’m not a beginner but don’t wanna spend hundreds as I’m tight haha 150 is my budget really
For $150 take a look at the EuroTek Pro...hard to beat for the price.
bonkers!!!
Indeed!
If this Detector Can Work on the beach it would tear it up no problem ..Thanks For Sharing
No clue on beach performance...but wide open spots like that would be ideal for it.
@@thehuntergt that is my thought also.. but without having it in hand and trying it out. it is Hard to say..
@@ohdannyboyjustadiggin Like many other products in this world.
Any test on it?
As in the tests I did in this video? I am confused....
Last
Cut those measurements in Half...in ground test.
Oh my gosh
