Sand Shark
Our new Sand Shark
combines time-proven PI circuits with the latest digital
technology creating the first microprocessor controlled
PI detector for the new Millennium.
Pulse Induction (PI)
detectors have always been the natural choice for
working wet salt beaches. Their circuitry and single
loop coils will not see changes in salt-water
conductivity that drive a VLF-style detector crazy. Add
Tesoro Electronics' exclusive interchangeable Printed
Spiral coils (available in four sizes) and you create a
fantastic PI detector. But we didn't stop there.
The Sand Shark has two
distinct operating modes: VCO and Normal. When working
in the VCO mode, as targets get closer to the coil, the
threshold generates a louder, higher pitched tone great
for pinpointing. The Normal mode works with a single
tone and is used for beachcombing and other prolonged
searches.
We've added a
microprocessor to help you customize the detector to
your specific needs. Our Pulse Width control allows you
to tune your detector to the best balance of depth,
sensitivity, and battery life. You can also change the
Normal mode audio frequency. Simply use the "F" Adjust
knob to set the tone and you're ready to go. The Sand
Shark also has a new drop-in battery compartment for
quick and easy changes. The Tesoro Sand Shark will
change the way that you think about pulse detectors.
