The review on Garrett Ace 250
12:48
ACE250 - One of new models of ruler ACE. ACE150 and 250 has replaced the previous number ACE of detectors, appearance and elements of management of the detector has essentially changed.

Electronics block is completely modified. The detector is designed in sports style, the detector weight is reduced, the search coil of new type Rhino Proformance is applied.


ACE 250 copes by means of 6 buttons of management. Power, Pinpoint, Elimination, Mode, Sensitivity and Discrimination. ACE250 has LCD the display which provides the user with the necessary information both by search and at detector adjustment, also as well as the information on the found out purpose, including:


Target ID: One of 12 segments identifies that was revealed.


Target Depth: Shows approximate depth of the found out object in inches; that is, 2, 4, 6 or 8


Condition of batteries: an icon of a condition of batteries.


Sensitivity: Specifies the level, used sensitivity in limits from (1 minimum) to (8 maximum)


Operating mode: Specifies, what is chosen from 5 possible programs of search.


ACE250 Has five independent programs of search: All Metal, Jeweliry, Relics, Coins and Custom. A discriminator segment; that is, what types of metal are accepted to search or all these programs are rejected, of course, have the approximate characteristic on type, the most optimum if you are going to use search programs, it, to create the program on point Custom. The discriminator segment can be easily changed in any of 5 programs, but, changes only in mode Custom if you switch off the detector will remain. The discriminator is completely independent on all to 12 segments, that is, you can accept or reject any type or all 12 certain segments of the discriminator which is available on LCD the display.


ACE250 Eats from four (4) AA batteries which provide continuous work between 40 and 50 o'clock, actually, in total I worked about 32 hours on my test detector, and indication of a condition of batteries still showed 2 of 4 sticks on the indicator! The truth all aforesaid concerns batteries Duracell or Energaiser. Cheap Polish or Chinese batteries die through 10-12 business hours, and even earlier. For example detector Bounty Hunter Time Ranger fed 2 mja with 9 volt batteries refused will join in general on what or batteries except Energaiser or Duracell.


Field tests


After some test for air we have gone to wood, into place where we spend the majority of tests for detectors, there is at us one place on which there is a soil, both an average mineralization, and high. We have begun the test in mode All Metall, for this purpose, what to understand how the various purposes on structure are registered by the detector, sensitivity a maximum.


On normal soil the detector has rung out at once with false signals, of course, sensitivity speaks for itself, it was necessary to reduce turns … have lowered sensitivity to the middle, the detector has a little calmed down. Us excited that lower installation of sensitivity will lead to loss of depth of detection, however, after reception of separate signals which included our test coins dug in advance on depth 16 – 18 I see have spent about 3 test hours, in general, in this territory, changing depth of search and a place an arrangement of the test purposes. The detector worked adequately, coins 5 clod lifted from depth about 18 sm at sensitivity hardly more than half (indicator).


As the detector has been tested in the field, in mode Juweliry, we left on check of the old places which have been checked up still in last year so on old place ACE250 has found out some sleeves, a pioneer badge and some coins of a Soviet period, it besides ours test range though is independent we there nothing dug in.


We carried out the additional test in an unfamiliar place, not the platform test. So Garrett has not shown something new, all system Target ID remains the old checked up technology from Garrett. Certainly, she is mistaken, as however, and all detectors, but more less productive search to conduct probably, is present as also the sound discriminator so on coins (nonferrous metal) the sound is published more similar to a call, and ferrous metals are signalled by a simple sound, hoarse that helps by search enough not badly.


The resume


ACE250 - The detector which allows to conduct productive search, cost in the ratio possibilities / quality are combined remarkably. In my opinion, choice ACE250 - the best choice for beginning searchers, possibility of work without difficult options!
