    Why would one want to have a sunray x1 probe..?

    I am not sure if I have ever needed one. I seem to find what I am digging for. Isn't that what the detector is for? I need a good reason to buy one...yes I have dug some targets and lost it but not too many times...Is it really necessary to spend another couple of hundred for? Looking for any...
