Nokta Makro Simplex+ Waterproof Metal Detector

Product Information

More advanced features include 0-99 target ID that helps identify the potential target according to the segments, notch discrimination, plus adjustable ferrous metals volume that allows to ignore ferrous metals altogether if necessary. Recovery speed is very fast giving remarkable target unmasking capabilities. If any of the terms I’ve used so far are alien, you can further read my article Best Metal Detector for Beginners. The X-TERRA PRO is a cutting-edge metal detector at an unbelievably low price. It borrows features from it’s higher-spec Minelab relatives. Minelab have once again flexed their technical prowess and delivered an affordable, high-performance machine. The X-TERRA PRO wins on waterproof rating, frequency option, target id’s, warranty, looks, coil size, and search modes. It does unfortunately place it firmly at the mid range Minelab Vanquish 440 that uses multi frequency technology. This technology opens up a whole new world of finding previously undetectable targets.

Many standard features are present like notch discrimination and “frequency shifting” which allows you detect close to another user and not suffer from electromagnetic interference. While the X-TERRA PRO has; All metal, Field 1 and 2, Beach 1 and 2, Park 1 and Park 2. So slightly more pre-set options on the X-TERRA PRO.Together with the original coil included into the kit, plus updatable software for the metal detector, these two additional products will make your metal detecting sessions even more productive. The more coils are available, the more flexibility you can expect for various targets and locations, and for various search conditions overall. SP22 – Waterproof 8.5″ DD Search Coil

Although it’s difficult to assess across different machines, larger coils typically provide a greater ability to see targets which lie deeper in the ground. For example, the Vanquish metal detector comes with 3 different coil options, V8 (8”), V10 (10”) and the V12 (12”) if you fitted the V12, you could find targets at a greater depth, whereas the V8 would see at ashallower depth, but most likely in greater detail, as the same amount of energy flows through the coil regardless of which size you have fitted. Some detectorists love large coils to help them find the deepest of targets and some prefer smaller, for better target separation and to be more precise at the shallower depths.This can mainly be seen with the search modes which include Park 1 & 2, Field, Beach and All Metal. Their was a fundamental shift by Minelab from discrimination “patterns” to “Search Modes”. Minelab offer their 3-year warranty on the X-TERRA PRO, which covers the control box and coil, whereas, Simplex only offer 2 years. We generally find both of these brands to be reliable and hope that you shouldn’t need any repairs within this time, but it’s worth noting.

It also benefits from an “Iron Volume” function which is a really useful thing. This allows you to hear the iron in the ground when hunting in All Metal but to turn volume of the iron very low. In terms of functions, Simplex+ is definitely better than Garrett Ace series metal detectors, Fisher F11-F44 detectors, and other newbie-friendly metal detectors already available. In fact, due to its functions, it can be compared with Garrett AT Pro (that I have been using for several years), and yet, it is almost two times cheaper. No doubt, Simplex+ is a serious competitor for Quest – X5 and X10 metal detectors, and also for the Minelab Vanquish series expected in 2020. To give you a very rough idea about the new metal detector – Nokta Simplex is a cheap (comparatively, of course, but still), both for ground and water search, and very easy to operate. Plus, it is compatible with wireless headphones, and has a DD coil in the kit. There is no dispute with me that the Nokta Makro Simplex + is a very capable machine which has demonstrated some extroadinary feats finding targets that many other machines wouldn’t have.

Nokta have released two additional search coils – as they have promised before, and this manufacturer seems to keep their promises! – and we have already made a more detailed review of these two compatible coils, and conducted a comparison test with the first one for Simplex+, in this post. So yeah, already due to its well-designed structure Nokta Simplex made a splash before it was even released, and now it takes the market by storm. What are the Most Important Features to Pay Attention To? Operating at a good mid range 12 KHz, not much should escape it within reason. Operating at 12 Khz places the Simplex + in a good “all round” frequency for depth and sensitivity. Nokta Makro Simplex Manual Whether you are searching for coins, artifacts or jewelry on land or underwater, SIMPLEX+ is the most cost-effective yet durable detector featuring a modern and lightweight style.

The first waterproof metal detector on the market offering extreme depth and high-end features at an entry-level price! The Nokta Makro Simplex + in my opinion is one of the best single frequency metal detectors in its class. The shaft of the detector is compact and collapsible – you can not only suit it for people of different height, but also collapse it for transportation. The device is very lightweight, only 2.8 lbs, enabling even teenagers or women to treasure hunt effectively.To complement the 11 inch DD coil included into the kit, you can also buy a bunch of other coils compatible. This is a novelty for cheaper detectors, as well.
