IP68 Waterproof Probe and 11-Inch Search Coil

The FindScani's IP68-rated probe and 11-inch waterproof search coil handle shallow water, wet sand, riverbanks, and submerged terrain without issue — opening up the environments where the most rewarding finds often hide. The large coil diameter provides wide ground coverage per sweep while achieving penetration depths of up to 2.5 metres for large metallic objects in favourable soil conditions.

3-Tone Discrimination and Multiple Operating Modes

Three distinct audio tones identify different metal categories as you sweep, allowing experienced users to make quick decisions about whether a target is worth digging. All-Metal mode maximises sensitivity for broad detection, Discrimination mode filters unwanted metals, and Pinpoint mode narrows the target location precisely before digging. Ground balance calibration removes false signals caused by mineralised soil, wet sand, and rocky ground interference.

LCD Display and Intuitive Operation

The backlit LCD display provides real-time depth estimation, target identification, operating mode, and sensitivity status — giving you the information needed to make confident decisions in the field. Audio alerts through the built-in speaker or 3.5mm headphone jack provide simultaneous sound confirmation of every detected target.

25 Hours of Runtime and Portable Design

Two 9V batteries power the FindScani for up to 25 hours of continuous operation — enough for multiple full-day sessions on a single set of batteries. The foldable, lightweight 2.1kg design packs down quickly for transport to beaches, fields, riverbanks, and archaeological sites wherever the hunt takes you.

Ideal For

Coin shooting and relic hunting, beach and shallow water detecting, gold prospecting, riverbank and lakeside exploration, archaeological surveying, and general treasure hunting across all terrain types.

User manual and quick-start guide

Please note: 2 x 9V batteries are required and not included.
1. Is the FindScani Metal Detector suitable for use in water?
Yes, the FindScani features an IP68-rated waterproof probe and search coil, making it suitable for shallow water detecting including riverbanks, beaches, wet sand, and submerged terrain. The main control unit should be kept out of water during use.

2. How deep can the FindScani Metal Detector detect?
The FindScani can detect large metallic objects at depths of up to 2.5 metres in favourable soil conditions. Detection depth for smaller targets such as coins varies depending on soil type, mineralisation, and sensitivity settings. Coin-sized targets are detected at approximately 15 to 18cm at standard sensitivity.

3. What are the three operating modes on the FindScani?
All-Metal mode detects every metallic object for maximum coverage. Discrimination mode filters out unwanted metals so you can focus on target categories of interest. Pinpoint mode narrows the precise location of a detected target before digging.

4. What does 3-tone discrimination mean on the FindScani?
Three-tone discrimination produces different audio tones for different metal categories, allowing experienced users to identify the likely type of target by sound before digging. This speeds up decision-making and reduces unnecessary excavation.

5. Does the FindScani work in mineralised or difficult soil?
Yes, the FindScani features ground balance calibration that compensates for false signals caused by mineralised soil, wet sand, and rocky terrain interference — maintaining accurate detection performance across varied and challenging ground conditions.

6. How long do the batteries last on the FindScani?
The FindScani runs for up to 25 hours of continuous operation on two 9V batteries. Batteries are not included and need to be purchased separately before first use.

7. Does the FindScani have headphone support?
Yes, the FindScani features a 3.5mm headphone jack allowing you to connect headphones for private audio alerts during detecting sessions. A built-in speaker is also included for use without headphones.

8. What targets is the FindScani Metal Detector suitable for finding?
The FindScani is well suited to coin shooting, relic and artefact hunting, jewellery detection, gold prospecting, and general treasure hunting across beaches, fields, riverbanks, shallow water, and archaeological sites.
