GDI Gold X-Finder Long Range Metal Detector
GDI Gold X-Finder Long Range Metal Detector is a digital, ionic long range locator with ground balance function for mineral rejection. X-Finder offers the choice of 10 factory metal frequency modes plus 3 free modes to scan for other frequencies.
NEW 1.06 UPDATE VERSION FOR 2022! WITH 10 RANGE LEVELS AND POWER BOOST
GOLD X-FINDER is a digital, ionic long range locator with the choice of 10 factory frequency modes to detect gold, silver, iron, lead, aluminum, copper, bronze, diamonds, water, cave/voids.
Additionally there is a user mode where the frequency can be set manually, to scan for other elements or experimenting with metal alloys. The selected frequency is displayed on the LCD, it is not locked and it can be altered on every mode for an accurate and precise location.
For example use your gold alloy sample target as a “bait” and roll through the frequencies until GOLD X-FINDER locator reacts only to your target. These user frequency settings are stored automatically in memory. Detection range and depth are also adjustable. Depending upon target size and user skill, ranges 300 to 2500 m. and depths up to 6 m. are achieved.
GOLD X-FINDER detector is ultra-user friendly, with the screen as a visual feedback of all selections and constant monitoring of the battery voltage level. GOLD X-FINDER long range locator consists of the main unit, antenna and handle that can be assembled in a few seconds and stored into a carry case with foam inserts for all the detector parts.
Power on is automatic when the handle is attached.
This is a very lightweight and sensitive gold detector, since the moving part that senses the target signal and locks towards its direction is only the antenna and not the heavier main unit, unlike on competitor devices. Target lock features also an audio alarm indication.
GOLD X-FINDER detector has been designed with the latest microprocessor technology with a firmware
that can be updated and constructed using high quality materials.
Το avoid false signals due to the ground mineralization, GOLD X-FINDER features an auto Ground Balance function. As soon it has been powered on, sweep repeatedly GOLD X-FINDER, to sense the ground mineral samples of the area, until it adjusts and rejects them.
New functions offered with the X-FINDER update for 2022 (version 1.06):
- Now Ground balance lasts twice as long with improved accuracy to filter out even stronger mineral signals.
-
Increased power adjustable in 10 range levels. Low levels reject small targets. Higher levels boost power and locate at long distances.
- 3 Free frequency modes to scan from 0 to 20000 Hz are available.
The user can experiment and store the preferred frequency settings to these custom programs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the detection depth of your metal detectors?
Our metal detectors vary in detection depth depending on the model and the type of metal being detected. Generally, our detectors can identify targets at depths ranging from a few inches to several feet. For specific models, please refer to the product specifications on our website.
Can I test my metal detector with freshly buried metals?
Freshly buried metals cannot be detected immediately. For a metal detector to sense the buried metal, it needs to disrupt the magnetic field, which requires the metal to remain underground for a certain amount of time.
What is the detection distance of your professional metal detectors?
Professional metal detectors locate metals buried for many years by detecting subtle environmental changes caused by these metals. They utilize bio-energy interaction, ionization technology, electromagnetic field detection, advanced microprocessor analysis, long-term soil disturbance detection, and sensor fusion. The longer the burial time, the easier it is to detect these metals due to more pronounced ion fields and electromagnetic signatures.
What factors affect detection capability?
Several factors can influence detection capability, including:
● Soil Conditions: Mineralization levels and moisture can impact performance.
● Target Size: Larger targets are typically detected at greater depths than smaller ones.
● Detector Settings: Adjusting sensitivity and discrimination can help optimize detection.
What are some practical testing methods for professional metal detectors?
● Field Testing in Historic Sites: Test in areas with known buried metal objects, like historical battlefields or archaeological sites (with permission).
● Using Known Buried Objects: Test in places where long-buried metals are documented, such as old farm fields or construction sites.
● Avoid Air Testing: Do not test with unburied or freshly buried metals. These detectors work by detecting ionization fields around long-buried metals, unlike hobby detectors.
● Avoid Testing Inside Structures: Testing indoors can lead to interference from numerous cables, electrical systems, and other factors that can affect the performance of professional detectors.
How do I maintain my metal detector?
To keep your metal detector in top shape:
● Clean After Use: Remove dirt and moisture from the detector, especially the coil.
● Store Properly: Keep it in a cool, dry place and avoid extreme temperatures.
● Check Batteries: Regularly check and replace batteries to ensure optimal performance.
Can I use my metal detector into the water?
Some of our metal detectors are designed for water use, while others are not. Always check the product specifications to see if your model is waterproof or submersible before using it in water.
What should I do if my metal detector isn't working properly?
If your metal detector isn't working, please follow these steps:
● Send Us a Video: First, send us a video demonstrating how you are using the detector. In 95% of cases, the issue is due to user error.
● Technical Review: Our technical team and the manufacturer will review the video to determine the cause of the issue.
● Next Steps: Based on their assessment, we will provide a solution, which may include fixing the device, replacing it, or confirming that it’s a user error.
