The Garrett Vortex VX7 Detector is a powerful waterproof metal detector built for detectorists who want more frequency options, more search modes, and stronger target control. It includes four frequency options and five search modes, giving users more flexibility than the VX5. Because of this, the VX7 is a strong choice for fields, parks, beaches, wet sand, and saltwater surf hunting.
One of the key benefits of the Garrett Vortex VX7 Detector is Multi-Frequency Salt mode. This mode helps improve performance in wet sand and saltwater areas, where many detectors struggle. As a result, users can search more confidently in tough beach conditions.
The VX7 also includes a two-tiered MD-MF Target ID display. This display separates ferrous and non-ferrous target scales, so users can better understand what may be below the coil. In addition, the detector offers extra audio tones and adjustable Recovery Speed. These features help separate nearby targets and improve control in trashy or high-target areas.
For added convenience, the Garrett Vortex VX7 Detector has built-in Z-Lynk wireless technology. Therefore, users can search without cords when paired with compatible Garrett Z-Lynk headphones or accessories. Please note that Garrett MS-3 Z-Lynk headphones and other Z-Lynk accessories are sold separately.
This detector is fully submersible to 16 feet and includes a backlit LCD screen. It also comes with an 8.5 x 11 inch search coil and a rechargeable lithium-ion battery. Plus, the compact shaft design makes it easy to transport and adjust in the field.
Another major advantage is upgradeability. As your skills grow, you can upgrade the VX7 to a VX9 model through software updates. Each Vortex upgrade adds more operating frequencies, more advanced features, and more detecting power.
