The search is over! For the most versatile and most efficient metal detector, that is. With the Minelab Safari metal detector and its patented FBS Multiple Frequency Technology feature, it just simply outclasses any other metal detector in its class.
So what’s FBS? It stands for Full Band Spectrum, basically an upgrade of Minelab’s patented BBS, or Broad Band Spectrum, technology. What this means is that while this metal detector may claim to work best in certain scenarios, and that other one performs better in other situations, with the FBS feature, the Minelad Safari metal detector performs in ANY imaginable condition!
What’s So Great About The Minelab Safari?
Measured in kHz, the electromagnetic operating frequencies determine a metal detector’s sensitivity. The higher the frequency, the higher the sensitivity to smaller targets. But this also results in shallower penetration depth. At the other end of the spectrum – lower frequencies result in much deeper penetration, but lesser sensitivity to smaller objects such as coins.
And that’s where the Minelab Safari metal detector stands out with its FBS circuit that enables it to trasmit multiple frequencies, all 28 of them!, simultaneously, from a low of 1.5kHz to a high of 100kHz.
So whether you’re detecting right in your own backyard, on a historic battlefield, or at the beach – this detecting wonder from Minelab will deliver results possible only with the FBS technology. Simply put, the Minelab Safari metal detector gives you depth, sensitivity and accuracy all in one metal detector.
Additional Features Set
But the Safari’s amazing features don’t end there. Its ultra-lighweight 11″ DD coil performs splendidly providing sharp pinpointing and great depth.
Use the built-in speakers or plug in a pair of headphones into the 1/4″ headphone jack. The Battery Meter even lets out an audio low battery warning.
The Trash Density feature also lessens false signals when set to high, perfect for the usual coin and relic locations, and setting it to low makes it ideal for clean sites.
It also comes with four programmable custom modes and four pre-set Detection Modes – Coin, Jewelry, Relic and All Metal. Nothing of value gets past the Safari.
Enabling the Noise Cancel feature lets the Safari choose the quietest and most stable detecting channel. And its Accept/Reject function has a linear discrimination scale of -10 to +40.
But don’t intimidated by all these wonderful features, for this metal detector is so easy to operate which makes it the perfect choice for both veteran and novice detectorists. And these great features are easily accessed on the intuitive Menu Interface for easy, speedy adjustment. It also clearly shows the target depth guage, the target Icon and target ID number, Mode indicators and a Graphic Identification Bar that displays the active discrimination pattern.
The well-balanced, efficient deisgn makes for a more comfortable and easy detecting experience enabling you to stay out there much longer without tiring easily.
The Minelab Safari comes with a 2-year warranty for the control box and a 1-year warranty for the coil.
