Price
The price of the new metal detector starts at $250 USD, which is approximately a quarter of the cost of the original detector.
WATCHING NOW
The new Chinese metal detector looks clumsy, much like most detectors made in this country. The only thing that will attract the attention of unsuspecting buyers is the low price. Unfortunately, the market has shown that this approach works (there will be buyers, and there will be plenty of them).
Oy Vey! Poor Nokta. They even stole the flashlight. Nokta has nothing else in her backyard.
It does not specify if the control unit is waterproof. It also operates on 2 9V batteries.
It seems similar to the Frogman T90.
The price is cheaper but I would spend a little more to get a Legend or an Equinox.
Would be interesting to see results from the field.
