(thought it would work as normal due to it being water proof within certain parts of the detector), on dry land and sand worked well. My first one, so still have lots to learn

I was watching the video on the ace 400 you made, it made understanding my machine a lot easier than reading the book. Thanks a lot.

Thank you for your video! I was given the Ace 400 by my husband for Christmas. I did a lot of research online and youtube videos like this one to pick what I wanted. I got the bundle with the pointer 2 which I love using and you can use it up to 10 feet under water. We have just started detecting due to the weather where we live. No big finds yet but so far...lots of bottle caps, bottle tabs, very thin wires which I keep hearing it doesn't do but yes it does, foil bits even 8 inches down which we were very surprised by, coins and some iron pieces. We will take it to a well used beach and area soon...right now I am getting comfortable with it and waiting for a little better weather. Pouring rain and snow between....well have to play with it on the days that work. Great fun with the grandson!

Excellent and informative review. I'm looking at getting into the hobby and have been studying brands/models and have decided that the ACE 400 was what I think I wanted. Your video sold me on it. Thanks a bunch!

Thanks for the testing the 400, answers most of my questions!

Excellent clear and helpful review and demonstration. I believe that the 400 is the right machine for my needs. Thank you!

Excellent video. A fair test for known targets too. My wife gave me one for Christmas - and I’m “diggin” it.

I've got a 400 ordered. just wanted to learn a bit about it. GREAT VIDEO!

There you go. Now I have ordered an ACE 400i. My 250 will be my backup detector. It is possible that many find it strange (and perhaps stupid) that I "only" upgrade to a 400i from a 250. Well ... what can I say ... my 250 has shown that ACE models are really good detectors for a fairly small amount of money. And when I saw this video, I realized that this is just all I need. For a very attractive price. The new detector should come within two weeks. No rush, though, here in Sweden (above the Arctic Circle), it will take a month before the snow is gone. Thanks for a great video. It helped me a lot!

One question, at the end of the video it chimed and showed 35. Why does it do that? Took mine out of the box and it chimed and showed 35 till I turned it off.

I have a 400i can someone explain to me why some times my detector randomly goes mad making noises. Like if I hit a metal object but it kicks of goin mad goin up and down the numbers.

Im torn between this and the Fisher f44 for a newer detector, anyone want to chime in? My first and only machine is an old whites coinmaster classic so I need an upgrade.

My experience has been that just because the machine SAYS its a dime doesn't mean that it is. Just because the machine SAYS its a nickle doesn't mean it is. YOU HAVE TO DIG to fine out for sure. The coin reader on the machine is not always correct. Depth has a lot to do with the accuracy as to what a signal really is.

Ive had a few machines i couldnt use because in 6'3, and my excalibur is one of the machines that even with the straight shaft i still can barely make it work.

cool video, but I didn't see any depth tests done. emi usually a pi detector issue not a vlf, big likes here from Australia Thank you for sharing and happy hunting

+Revx Bonda If you discriminate out iron and foil on any machine it will work on the wet sand ok. Only multi frequency machines or pulse induction units work well on salt water. Single frequency machines struggle as salt is conductive. Some machines have a beach mode that will help deal with this, but they still can't compete with a multi frequency unit. Your best bet is to get whatever machine you can get started with and work the dry sand and fresh water spots. If you detect over wet sand try discriminating out the iron and foil area, and you should be able to do some detecting. Just don't touch the coil to the surface as this will cause false signals. Thanks for watching and good luck!

Can you do a video showing how it deals with rusty and new beer bottle caps close to a silver dime or a copper penny? Notch out everything below 70. Just have it so it can pick up targets from 70-99. I want to see if it can discriminate out bottle caps COMPLETELY and still hear a copper penny or silver coin. If it can do that which I doubt it can then it is equal to an AT Pro at least in standard mode.

+cache mole The iron audio sounds off on an old bottle cap, but you would not want to notch it out for coin hunting. The 400 has 12 segments that start from zero, and the AT has twelve segments that start at 40, after the iron section. So the notch window on the AT Pro is a smaller segment of numbers than the Ace 400. The Ace did a good job of identifying the bottle cap with the iron audio and a less stable ID than a coin, so I would be able to skip over that in the field no problem. I think that's pretty good. The AT Pro is of course a step up the food chain, but the Ace 400 seems to get the job done very well.

+Carolina Coin Hunter The processor should be eliminating bottle caps completely. In an area that has bottle caps everywhere I can make it so I dont hear them at all with the At Pro. Why have the processor identify something made of steel as an 80's T.I.D. number at all? Copper pennies and silver coins are in the exact same range. Even cheaper Minelabs dont identify bottle caps as a high tone. Adding the iron audio is like putting a band aid on an inherent design flaw.

***** I'm not sure how exactly it works, but the high end Fishers, Teknetics, and others do the same thing. At least the Iron Audio gives you a clue. My F75 LTD can not do that. I dig deep round iron all the time with that thing. Minelab is whole different story,. There tech is good, but the units are very slow compared to the AT Pro or this Ace 400. I guess taking a lot longer sample of the target can give you a bit more info, but I'd rather have the recovery speed personally. I can hunt twice the ground in a given time with the AT than I could with the Etrac. That equals more goodies in my pocket for the day, especially if It's a one shot permission!

That's the cool thing about these machines, an detecting in general. We can pick what we like, and hunt how we want to. I wish you the best of luck with your detecting, and appreciate your comments. I enjoy chatting with fellow detectorist :)

I didn't see much info about bottle caps in this video the main thing the Ace series detectors struggle with. This can be very frustrating if you are coin hunting exclusively. Why do the Ace's see beer bottle caps (which are everywhere) as a high tone in the 80's just like a coin? I know they will say it's because they are round and flat like a coin...but my AT Pro blocks them out completely. The Iron discrimination on the At Pro is much better. I don't even need to use iron audio on my AT Pro even though it has it. I have seen other Ace 400 videos including the Garret official ACE 400 instructional video on KZread show how it deals with bottlecaps and it isn't good. This was the main reason I got rid of my Ace 350. The iron audio on the 400 helps compensate for this flaw a little by identifying it as iron but the fundamental flaw is still there...bottle caps shouldn't come in as a high tone.

I'm going to show some of that in my field testing videos. I'm just getting started with this unit.

+cache mole Thanks for watching. The At Pro really is a good unit. Every other machine I've used will truck you on those old washers and bottle caps. I've dug a ton :)

+Carolina Coin Hunter Agreed. I had a Minelab Etrac and the AT Pro held its own against that machine. It's better on small gold too.

I recently picked one up. I’m rather disappointed with it. The pin point feature is pretty bad. Also, the wing nuts won’t tighten enough to keep the coil in place.
