Garrett Vortex VX5 Metalldetektoren (B-Ware)

Garrett Vortex VX5™ Metalldetektoren™ | Upgradeable to VX7 and VX9!

Every Vortex model is upgradeable, so you can upgrade your detector to a higher model through software updates. As your capabilities and requirements increase, you can update your Metalldetektoren to the next higher model using a paid activation code. Each Vortex upgrade then includes additional operating frequencies, extended functions and more power per update. This has potential and will change the way Metalldetektoren is purchased and used. A path to greater sustainability and a new way forward in the industry.

The entry-level model VX5 is best compared to the Garrett Apex. The detector offers fast, reliable object detection with a very good response time. Waterproof up to 5 meters. Available with single and multi-frequency options. One-level target ID scale. Three different beep tones.

Novelty Upgradeability The revolutionary feature of the Garrett Vortex series is its upgradeability. For the first time, you can upgrade your Metalldetektoren to a higher model through software updates. This means that you can turn your VX5 into a VX7 or even a VX9 without having to buy a completely new detector. The upgrade cost is between $85 and $150. This innovative feature ensures that your device always remains state of the art and you can benefit from the latest features.

VX5 waterproof to 5 meters
The Garrett Vortex VX5 is fully waterproof up to 5 meters. Designed for dusty, humid or damp environments. For underwater / water use, we recommend underwater headphones.

Select one of the 4 search programs and start sounding!
The VX5 offers four modes: Zero, Standard, US Coin and Custom.

Target ID scales
The Target ID scales are one of the main features that make this series stand out. The VX5 has a simple 0-99 Target ID scale that allows users to quickly identify metal types. The VX7 improves on this system with a two-step Target ID scale, while the VX9 goes even further and offers a three-step Target ID scale for even more precise identification.

MD-MF frequencies
Frequencies play a crucial role in the detection of metals in different soil types. The VX5 works with two multi-frequencies, making it versatile and effective in different environments.

Variable response speeds and wireless connectivity
The variable response speed is another highlight of the Vortex series. While the VX5 does not offer an adjustable response speed, the VX7 comes with two settings and the VX9 with three settings. This function enables finer adjustment to the speed and increases the accuracy of the search. All models from the VX7 onwards are wireless enabled, allowing for convenient and interference-free use. This is particularly useful for professional treasure hunters who spend long periods of time in the field.
