Garrett Complete Gold Pan Kit 1651310 Review:


I gave this as a present to a novice panner. He got gold on the first try, along with a bag of paydirt. This set's included book is quite beneficial. When you aren't purchasing paydirt, the sifting tray comes in handy for actual panning. Even though they appear a little cheap, the tweezer heads fit together nicely, thus they function effectively. The magnifying glass is the same; it appears a touch flimsy but does the job. Because the nozzle on the gold guzzler bottle is large enough to scoop up large bits of gold, it might be a little tricky to operate because water rushes back out as soon as suction is removed. Additionally, the container must be upright when you squeeze it to create additional suction in order to prevent the gold within from spilling back out. Everything is evident; it only takes a moment to get the hang of it the first time. The pans' plastic is sturdy and of excellent quality.A very excellent quality kit all over. Excellent for gifting gifts.



Garrett 14" Classifier 1650200 Review:


As a backup for the one I've been using 1-2 times per week for the past two years, I bought it. The plastic on the present one has discolouration. The light-weight Garrett 1/2-inch plastic mesh classifier in my backpack nestles wonderfully with my 14-inch GPAA pan. I recently purchased a backup pan for the original one because it has the same fading.



Goldn Gold Paydirt Eureka Panning Pay Dirt Bag – Gold Prospecting Concentrate Review:


I've only recently started prospecting, and I've never purchased paydirt online. therefore had no idea what to anticipate. GOLDN Paydirt arrived in two days and the package contained all that was promised. About a third of the bag was panned, yielding gold. larger than flower gold but smaller than pickers. I ran the black sand three or four times after saving it and still obtaining blooming gold. At first, I believed that purchasing paydirt would be pointless. I made good progress in my understanding of how to pan, collect black sand, and use a snuffer bottle. With my purchase, I'm pleased.



Bounty Hunter HEAD-PL Metal Detector Headphones Review:


These are effective at doing what they are intended to do, which is to muffle outside noise, give your ears a decent detector sound, and have independent volume adjustments.I dislike them because they are cumbersome, humid, and hot. Additionally, if your eyeglasses are behind your ears, you will experience ear pain thereafter. Additionally, you will be taking these off and putting them back on repeatedly if you use a pinpointer (I suggest the Garrett ProPointer).So they are effective, but I wish there were other options. I have purchased an adaptor so that my iPod headphones will fit, but the drawback is that there will be no volume control (no, your iPod headphone volume control controls your IPOD, and will not control the detector). Perhaps I can just slightly pry the headphones out of my ears. I'm also speculating that using iPod headphones would help the batteries live longer. When I receive my adaptor, I'll make an effort to remember to update my review.



Nugget Reserve Gold Paydirt Clunker Panning Pay Dirt Bag – Gold Prospecting Concentrate Review:


Wow, I was really happy. I have spent thirty years prospecting. I conducted the required research to find gold. I was therefore quite happy to find the nice tiny nugget and the twelve large, chunky pinhead-sized pieces of dazzling, bright gold. I needed a tiny nugget for my metal detector because I am getting close to 80, and I definitely got it. For a Christmas present, I'm going to get another bag for my gold-panning companion. I appreciate you not letting me down. It was a nice problem to have because the nugget was large enough that while panning off the black sand, it wouldn't stay up with the rest of the gold and kept tumbling down. I had to slide it back up so that I could snap my shots. Thanks. For my panning partner, I placed another crappy bag order on December 11. After Christmas, I'll let you know how everything turned out. Okay, so when my friend visited us for Christmas, he panned the gold I had given him in the bag. There was a large nugget there, but it also had five nice pickers and a lot of chunky gold that was around the size of a half-bb. He was content, and we subsequently panned it again and discovered a great, large flake that had been missed the first time. Although they offer a free sample if you give them five stars, this review is unrelated to that offer. You never know when you might receive a free sample. Fun is still had by everybody.



UNIROI Metal Detector IP65 Water-Resistant Pinpointer with 9V Battery Buzzer Vibration LED Indicator UD002 Review:


Do not get it wet where the cap screws in because there is no gasket or o-ring to stop water from getting in. In my case, I accidentally got mine wet, and when I turned it on, it started making all kinds of strange noises and it was going haywire. BUT HAVE NO FEAR, FOR ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS TAKE THE BATTERY OUT AND DRY THE INSIDE OUT COMPLETELY. Later, when I tried again, it was successful. Therefore, if it begins acting strangely or producing strange noises, don't assume it is broken. Instead, consider the possibility that moisture has entered the battery compartment.



Goldn Badger Gold Paydirt 'Hoard' Panning Pay Dirt Bag – Gold Prospecting Concentrate Review:


I've been cycling through various paydirt to hone my panning techniques because I'm still a novice at the whole gold business. According to the provided directions, you should do it one spoonful at a time and repeat the process two or three times to make sure you receive it all. It also includes a tiny glass vial that you can use to store your finished gold scraps. So prepare to locate some color by gathering your small pan and a catch basin of water.It was challenging to resist the want to complete everything at once in my large pan. However, since there was only 8 ounces of dirt, I decided to take my time and add one generous spoonful at a time. By doing this, the pleasure was made to continue longer and nearly every pan got some decent color. Once I figured it out, I started to experiment with my pan more, trying to determine when too much movement would result in gold loss and how to best separate those little chunks from the remainder of the fine heavies while they were still in the pan. A quick tap here, a quick shake there, and oh no. Anyway... The consistency of the flakes in this bag actually felt a little chunkier than others, and one pan even contained a small nugget or picker (I'm not sure where the line between the two sits). When you snuff a piece out of the pan, you can really hear it strike the back of your bottle, which is neat.This little bag has given me the biggest smile out of all the varieties I've ordered thus far and contained the most and one of the biggest chunks of gold I've discovered so far in a bag of paydirt. View the photos that are connected.However, you're doing it incorrectly if you buy pay dirt in the hopes of making a profit. I suggest the Goldn Badger Hoard Gold bag if you want to challenge yourself and be surprised by what you uncover. The fever will undoubtedly rise as a result.



UNIROI Hand Held Metal Detector Wand Security Scanner with 9V Battery, Belt Holster, Adjustable Sensitivity, Sound & Vibration Modes Review:


I use a lot of reclaimed wood in my goods, and I detest seeing sparks fly off the table saw blade when I run the board through it. I've already damaged two blades. I used the detector on a 3/4 x 12 piece of 50-year-old roofing board after getting it today, and it picked up every broken nail as well as a few tiny rusty staples when I brought it up to the wood. This is effective. buy it.



All-Purpose Carry Bag Review:


This bag fits my ACE 250 just right. It can be difficult to fit the detector into the bag if your detector's length is adjusted to be particularly tall, in my opinion. Even then, all you have to do is reduce the detector's length when storing it; the ACE makes this task quite simple.I wish there were more pockets, that's the only negative. On the outside of the bigger pocket, there are 2 pockets: a large pouch and a smaller sleeve-style pocket. As it is, I can easily store other small, non-bulky items in the large pocket in addition to my Lesche Digging Tool



Garrett Metal Detectors Digger's Pouch Camo, GAR1612900 Review:


I bought this pouch a little less than five months ago. The pouch idea is a good one. It was presumably intended for my Garrett pinpointer to clip directly to the loops on the front of the pouch. I wish the loops' stitching width varied a bit so I could also attach my lesche sheath to the front. You get what you pay for in this case. Sharp metallic things dug up from the dirt are too strong for this object's durability to withstand. The inside lining of the garbage (larger) part had a tear that I initially noticed at the very bottom. It's not a big deal because I only fill it with trash and the exterior material is still in tact. As you look at the front of the pouch, near the top left, the stitching is coming undone, which I discovered today. This resulted likely from zipping and unzipping the locate pouch for smaller items. The stitching connecting the inner lining to the exterior cloth has come undone due to the repeated tugging on the zipper. I would rate this 2 or 3 stars if it weren't for the item's low price, but given it's under $20, that's to be expected. For the occasional detectorist, I would advise. After moderate to frequent use, expect to replace it; otherwise, look for something more durable.
