TX-850 Professional Metal Detector 19kHz 11" Coil

TX-850 Professional Metal Detector for Gold & Treasure

The TX-850 is a professional-grade VLF metal detector designed for users who require accurate target identification, stable performance and reliable depth in a wide range of ground conditions. Operating at 19 kHz with an 11-inch waterproof DD search coil, it offers high sensitivity to small, low-conductivity targets such as gold nuggets while still performing effectively as an all-purpose detector for relics, jewelry and coins.

Built for outdoor use, the TX-850 combines reinforced ABS and metal components with an ergonomic, adjustable shaft (approx. 42-52 inches) and padded armrest for comfortable, extended detecting sessions. The control panel features a clear LCD display that shows probable target type, numeric Target ID (0-100), depth indication, sensitivity level, discrimination/notch range and battery status. Separate controls for gain, threshold and ground balance allow precise tuning to mineralized soils, salt environments and changing terrain.

The detector includes a dedicated pinpoint mode for accurate target location, reducing unnecessary digging and recovery time. Advanced discrimination and notch functions help you accept or reject specific metal categories, while the wide ground balance range (from ferrite to saltwater) helps minimize false signals from naturally occurring minerals. With up to 15 hours of operation from a single 9V battery (not included), the TX-850 is suitable for gold prospecting, beach detecting, field searches, archaeology support and security inspection tasks.

Why It's a Smart Choice

• High sensitivity to small gold - 19 kHz frequency and 11" DD coil enhance response to small, low-conductivity targets such as fine gold and small jewelry.
• Precise control in difficult ground - Adjustable ground balance, gain and threshold settings help maintain stable performance in mineralized soil and salt environments.
• Efficient target recovery - Numeric Target ID, audio tones and pinpoint mode work together to reduce digging time and improve accuracy in the field.

FAQ

Q: How deep can the TX-850 detect targets?
A: Depth depends on target size, shape, orientation and soil conditions. Typical coin-sized targets can be detected at approximately 12-15 inches, while larger objects can be detected at greater depths.

Q: Is the TX-850 fully waterproof?
A: The 11-inch DD search coil is waterproof and suitable for shallow water and wet sand. The control housing is not waterproof and should be kept dry.

Q: Can beginners use this detector?
A: Yes. While it offers advanced controls for experienced users, the TX-850 also provides clear visual Target ID, intuitive buttons and adjustable sensitivity, making it accessible for motivated beginners.

Q: What type of battery does it use and how long does it last?
A: The detector operates on one 9V battery (not included). Typical battery life is up to 15 hours, depending on settings and battery quality.

Q: What can I search for with the TX-850?
A: The TX-850 can be used for gold prospecting, coin and jewelry hunting, relic recovery, beach detecting, basic archaeological support and certain security or inspection tasks.
