Fisher F70 Is One Hot Detector
by Steve from Ohio in cleveland, ohio -
I bought the Fisher F70 about 3 months ago. I have been a detectorist for over 25 years and have used many detectors over the years. The F-70 is the lightest detector I have ever owned at 2 lbs. 15 oz. The F-70 uses 4 AA batteries and I have gotten over 60 hours of detecting on rechargeable 2650 MHA batteries - very economical. I have found coins to a depth of 12 inches with the F-70. I have found tin cans at 20 inches. The F-70 is a great coin shooter and also a great Relic hunter. It is also from what I have heard a very good gold nugget hunter. At a frequency of 13 khz, it allows for a multitude of uses. The F-70 is very easy to use and the learning curve is short. The recovery time is awesome and this machine is very fast. You can really cover a lot of ground with the F-70. I would recommend the F-70 and give it 5 stars.
