damaging it. The NiMH pack provides 10-12 hours on a charge. The type of battery in-

Field Test

The first site I took the V3i to was a local park with a large playground area frequented

by mothers and their children. I chose this location not so much to push the V3i to the

limit in terms of performance but to familiarize myself with some of the new features as

well as try the Loop Selection option with a few of the optional coils I had for my

original V3 and DFX. The basic COIN & JEWELRY program was selected and after

quickly ground balancing the V3i, I headed off to see what might turn up. Before the two

words in that last sentence – GROUND BALANCING - gets readers worried, the V3i has

a highly accurate automatic ground tracking circuit; however, it is recommended that one

starts out by quickly balancing the detector before starting to search. This is done by

holding the trigger switch, pressing the ENTER touchpad and pumping the coil up and

down for a few seconds until the threshold remains constant... release and start hunting –

what could be easier! I spent 3 hours at this location and other than a few "tweaks" to

options such as SENSITIVITY (targets were not very deep so lower values provided less

falsing), GROUND FILTERS (I prefer a slower sweep speed so a lower setting was used)

and RX GAIN (nearby high voltage power line interference was easily eliminated with a

lower value), I used the stock settings the entire time. The V3i was stable and the

accuracy of the target ID & depth indications was "dead-on" virtually every time.

Switching coils and checking marked signals, I saw that by using the LOOP

SELECTION menu option, the target ID (on all three screens) and depth indications were

in fact optimized to the coil in-use. Almost 45 coins, a few keys, matchbox cars and a

thin 10KT child's ring wound up in my pouch by the time I headed back to the truck.
