is this metal detector water proof?

According to the owners manual, the search coil is waterproof, but the case-to-cable connection is not. So keep the detector body dry. Damp grass and shallow water is fine, but only for the search coil.

The level switch is water proof but the control unit has holes for cooling and an opening for the alarm so if it was mounted in the weather it would fail.

Yes, it is waterproof, and it will get a heart rate in a pool using the provided chest strap. It does not have a GPS.

It is fairly heavy due to the 3 large batteries (D), but there are a couple holes in the base for mounting on screw heads. I don't believe the unit is waterproof however.

It is water proof. If the o rings go bad they can easily be purchased at your hardware store to be replaced. Has sponge in cap for holding calib. Fluid to keep it accurate and corrosion free. Finally you pay for what you get. There is a reason those are cheaper and this one is a lot more expensive and not just a little. Think about it like two glass jar one thicker more expensive and the other thinner less expensive. They will both do the same exact thing but one is a lot easier to break or something happen to it. So you buy the thinker one so less likely of a chance of something happening and needing it especially when it's a needing moment.

As far as I know, if a metal detector can work underwater, it should work on land too.But as far as this particular metal detector goes, I wouldn't trust it.There are way too many bad reviews on the internet for this detector.Also, many of the good reviews on Amazon for this detector look like fake reviews, as if the reviews were posted by the seller.

No, I suggest much more advanced metal detector. For this o e to detect. Anything the object had to literally

A cover for which part of the Metal-Detector, the head, were where meter is, you don't need one it is water tight in the water to 10'. the bass of the metal-detector the coil, you can buy a cover or proctor for the bottom of the coil, once you put it on it very hard to remove, until it wore out.

I've never used it in water, but on land it does awesome. Once you learn how to use it, you will be able to have a good idea what the item is before you dig. Just like with all metal detectors, the bottle caps/ tabs will fall into the coin range. I use the 5x8 DD coil in trashy areas and the stock coil every where else. My son has the Ace 250; it's a good metal detector, but the AT Pro is much superior. There is a learning curve, so be patient and you will love this detector. Start watching videos on YouTube. Nugget Noggin uses the AT Pro and he has a lot of videos.

I would buy a better metal detector. ... this one is very cheap. ... u need to be really close to the metal in order for it to detect.

I think it was water proof, but I can't say for sure as I bought it for my grandchild, and I never asked my son.sorry.

A one-inch hole would be plenty. If you would prefer a smaller hole, how about: 1) Clip the cable so that the sensor plate is no longer attached. 2) There are two wires in the cable; clip one of the two wires 1/4" shorter than the other. 3) Strip off some insulation from each of the two wires. Be sure not to strip so much off the longer wire that the shorter wire can touch the longer wire's bare metal, and thus sound a false alarm. Once you've done that, you could probably shove the wire through a very tiny hole and it would still do a fine job of detecting water.

No, it is water resistant, not water proof. It can handle rain and sweat but not being submerged

I don't know if it is water proof. I'm traveling so cannot take a look; it's at my home and also is tested but not yet installed.

This is an exceptional land detector. I use it 90% on land and 10% in the water. Most detectors are not waterproof so that is why you see a lot of mentions of it in the comments. It is nice when you are out and it starts to drizzle or rain. Instead of running for cover (like you would with most other detectors) you are free to stay out if you wish. It is also nice that you DO have the option of detecting the water when it presents itself. I find the majority of my jewelry in waist deep water with it. - MDTips.com

This will not work underwater and you need to be within about 3 inches to detect metal, I suggest a gaff hook and long rope.

To a certain degree it is water resistant. The flash light has a rubber seal/ring. The metal should not rust if you shake it dry before putting it away.
