What performance can I expect from Multi-IQ and the V10X coil?

Multi-IQ simultaneously transmits multiple frequencies so the detector covers a broad range of target sizes and depths without manual frequency changes. The waterproof V10X 10" x 7" Double-D coil balances depth and sensitivity, making it effective for coins, jewelry and small gold in varied soils.

• Suitable for all-metal and discrimination hunts across terrains

Can I use the Vanquish 460 in water and rough conditions?

Yes — the unit is rated IP68 and is fully submersible up to 16 feet, so detection continues uninterrupted in rain, shorelines, creeks and shallow diving. Seals and construction resist dust and dirt, preserving performance in demanding environments.

• IP68 waterproof rating for full submersion and wet-weather use
• Durable build to resist sand, mud and splashes
• Works in both wet and dry soils without losing sensitivity

The built-in lithium-ion battery supports up to about 10 hours of continuous detecting on a charge and charges via an onboard port. The package includes a waterproof V10X 10" Double-D coil and wired headphones so you can begin hunting right away.
