Key Features

  • Easy and simple one-hand operation; built-in handle
  • Easy to learn; 3 keypad switches: on/off and volume, sensitivity up and sensitivity down
  • Volume built into the on/off key; just hold down the key while it cycles through the settings
  • The electronic keypad “clicks” when a key is depressed. A “real” speaker is in the front panel, providing outstanding volume.
  • Microprocessor remembers the volume and gain settings from the last time the unit was on Non-metered (ML-1) and metered (ML-1M) versions are designed to look, feel and operate the same
  • Strong aluminum monotube construction from the tip through the end of the handle and ABS injection-molded electronics case (3 ¼” tapered to 2 ½”-wide X 4 ½” tapered to 2 ½”-deep) provide the best structural integrity in a hand-held locator.
  • Lightweight; only about two pounds including batteries
  • Uses 2 regular alkaline 9-volt batteries, parallel; the unit is shipped with two spare batteries
  • Soft pack carrying case included (optional hard case available) Battery compartment separated from electronic components and the circuit board. No exposing electronics to replace the batteries.
