FOR INSTANCE: Compare the Euro-Tek-Pro to the Tesoro Silver or anything similar or well above in $.
The Tesoro Silver is $254.00 and has almost none of the Euro-Tek features listed below-just, according to manufacturer:
"Product Features:
Push Button Battery Test
Silent Search Discriminate Mode
Silent Search All Metal Mode"
The weight is similar.
---------------------------------
I have the Silver Sabre Umax- well above the "Silver" in features and ability and probably the best Tesoro ever made [except for larger relic hunting] and depth wise or separation wise there is no difference between the ETP and the SSUmax!
The Euro-Tek started out way under priced for what the detector gives you! NEVER saw this many features near this price range!
I also own the MXT and the AT-PRO and the Minelab 705 and of course, they give me even more features etc, for hundreds of $$$ more, of course!
So, my Euro-Tek-Pro gets little use. But I grab it for playground hunts!
It's so lightweight and really accomplishes the same thing on the playgrounds and to be honest, other than an inch or so more depth, the same everywhere except wet salt beaches [these require multiple frequencies all working at once, like the CZ's and Minelab Excalibur etc].
I now have 11 detectors, so as much as I will miss it, my wife is acting strange and I may end up dead soon!
So, I will be selling 4 or 5 of mine soon. But I just feel that this detector offers more, than anything in it's price range or even $100 or more above it!
It's really not getting full credit!
