Waterproof Metal Detector with Folding Shovel and Headphone

This is Urceri's entry-level metal detector, sold as a kit with a folding shovel and headphones in the box. It runs an 8.7 inch waterproof search coil, two operating modes and a color LED screen, and Urceri lists it for treasure hunting and gold digging outdoors, in shallow water, and in what the listing calls extreme ground conditions.

Who this suits

Someone buying a first detector who does not want to work out which shovel, which headphones and which extras to order alongside it. Both the shovel and the headphones are listed as included, so the kit goes out of the box and into a field the same day.

Urceri lists it for beginners and professionals alike. Read that as a beginner machine an experienced user could happily hand to a kid: two modes, three volume settings and a screen that shows depth, sensitivity and battery level.

Skip it if you already own a detector. Two modes and one coil are not an upgrade path, and the listing names no operating frequency, no weight and no battery type, which are exactly the specifications an experienced buyer compares on.

The 8.7 inch coil and where it can go

The search coil is 8.7 inches across and listed as waterproof. That diameter is the general-purpose size: enough width to cover a field at walking pace, still narrow enough to work along fence lines and around tree roots without a constant stream of false hits.

On water, read the listing carefully. It marks the product waterproof, marks the coil waterproof as its own row, and names shallow water among the usage environments. It gives no depth rating anywhere. Treat that as wet grass, damp sand and wading depth, and ask the seller directly before you put the control housing under.

Two modes, and when to use each

There are two operating modes: motion all metal, and disc.

All metal calls you over everything the coil passes, which is what you want on a fresh site or while you are still learning the sound of the machine. Disc mode uses the target discrimination to filter out metals you do not want, so pull tabs and foil stop interrupting you on a picked-over park lawn. Starting in all metal to learn the tones, then switching to disc when the junk gets tedious, is the normal way in.

The screen and the audio

The color LED screen shows three things: depth, sensitivity level and battery level, with a low battery indicator alongside. Depth on screen is the one that saves your afternoon, because it tells you whether a signal is a shallow coin or a deep lump of scrap before you start digging.

Audio is where the included headphones earn their place. The jack is 0.125 inches, or 3.5 mm, the standard size, so any normal pair fits if you dislike the ones supplied. There are three volume settings. Headphones matter more than they sound like they should: wind kills a small speaker, and the faint deep signals are the first thing you lose to it.

What comes in the kit, and which version this is

The listing includes the detector, a folding shovel and headphones. The design is listed as foldable and adjustable and the construction as sturdy. There are no size or color variants to pick between on this page.

Nothing beyond those three items is named, so if you expect a carry bag, a battery or a pinpointer in the box, confirm it with the seller rather than assuming the kit covers it.

The bottom line

A complete first kit: an 8.7 inch waterproof coil, two modes, a color screen showing depth, three volume levels, and a shovel and headphones included. Getting a beginner into a field on the day it arrives is most of the value here. It is not a submersible detector and not a multi-frequency machine, and the listing is silent on frequency, weight and battery, so ask before you buy if any of those decide it for you.
