Model GC-1013 from the American manufacturer of metal detectors Treker is a low-cost, but high-quality product for beginner diggers.
Design
The developers of the GC-1013 abandoned the S-shaped bar, here it is straight, but with an adjustable length (78-106 cm). The handle resembles a computer joystick, every curve of which is thought out. According to reviews, the ergonomics of the GC-1013 is not inferior to the usual S-shaped models.
The armrest is soft and adjustable. Everything is assembled tightly, no backlash is felt. The total weight of the device is 1.4 kg, including batteries, and this is the average weight in the class.
Features
The GC-1013 implements a low-frequency search principle at a frequency of 6.6 kHz. The water-resistant 8" circular coil does the job well. This is helped by: the function of sequential discrimination (search by type of metal) with a 3-tone response, Pin-Point pinpointing mode, manual adjustment of the ground balance and the sensitivity mode, or, in other words, the depth, which is recommended to be set to the maximum position .
In the "VLF" mode, the metal detector is able to detect coins at a depth of up to 12 cm, but this indicator is very relative in inexpensive models. The remaining two preset TR (Transmitter Receiver) modes are optimized for searching for specific metal groups, such as: copper, steel, aluminium (TR1), and more noble ones: gold, silver (TR2). Features, as we see, are modest.
The device is also modest in control: 5 knobs of potentiometers, one four-position switch and an analogue dial indicator instead of a multifunctional display.
battery life
The power source is two "crowns", the charge of which is enough for 30 hours. A low battery is signaled by the red light of the "Low batt" indicator.
Overall, Treker GC-1013 is a symbiosis of simplicity and affordability, and is perfect for entertainment and a first acquaintance with the world of archeology.
