Whites metal detectors are manufactured by White's electronics and they been in business since 1950. Truly pioneers in the field, they currently design and manufacture cutting edge and top rated recreational and highly specialized metal detectors. The company is founded on the values of great quality and customer service.

I was introduced to the hobby of treasure hunting shortly after I moved to Florida. It was just after a big storm and I went to the beach to watch the waves there I noticed several people using melted sectors to search the beach. I struck up a conversation and found out that actual treasure has been found on the beaches especially after a big storm. I happened to be in the area of Florida called the treasure Coast and discovered that finding treasure along the beach was how it was named. It so happens the fellow I was talking to was using a Whites metal detector.

My new found friend was devoted to his Whites Beach metal detector. The point was made that in the field of electronics which is constantly changing and has infinite varieties it makes sense to narrow your search to a company that is an industry leader, dedicated to customer service, and is active in research and development.
What are the best metal detectors?

The answer to that question is simply the one that best suits your needs. There are some questions that can be answered to help guide you in your decision.

Where do you intend to prospect?

Will you be searching at the beach near saltwater? Or would he be in the mountains primarily looking for gold or minerals? Gold metal detectors for instance may not be the best selection for more general use. Likewise, an underwater metal detector is designed specifically for that type of use. The type of treasure hunting you do will certainly play a large role in selecting among the best metal detectors for your particular needs. Some of the more high end to metal detectors have different modes that can be used for different types of hunting providing more versatility.

Will this be a detector for the whole family or just for you?

The size and weight of the metal detector are key considerations depending on who will be using it. A heavier and longer metal detector might be difficult to use for children. Things to consider our length adjustments and whether various components can be moved along the pole or unhooked for carrying in a pouch or backpack. Whites metal detectors are among the most versatile on the market.

How frequently will you be using your metal detector?

If you will be using your metal detector frequently or are very serious about the hobby, it may be wise to invest in a more expensive model with more features. Top-of-the-line metal detectors pay off in terms of ease-of-use and also their ability to hone in on exactly what you are searching for. If you will be using your detector often were in very remote places you might want to consider how portable it is and if he can be broken down and packed easily.

How big is your budget for the metal detector?
I think the best way to answer this is simply determine how passionate you are about your hobby. If you are just starting out it may be prudent to invest in a less costly model to see if treasure hunting is something you want to pursue. If your passion runs deep then you may want to treat yourself to a top-of-the-line model. Don't forget about the cost of accessories. One thing that may help determine your budget is to think in terms of spending within limits or ranges. For instance, just to see if you enjoy the hobby you may want to see what's available in the $200-$300 range.
