With the Fisher 1280-X Underwater All-Purpose Metal Detector, you are equipped with a sophisticated tool for serious treasure hunters. This deep-seeking detector is engineered for versatility, capable of operation both underwater and on land, making it an ideal choice for divers, beachcombers, and archaeologists alike. Its 10.5" searchcoil offers a broad sweep for covering extensive areas, while the 2.4 kHz operating frequency ensures sensitive detection for a variety of metal objects.The 1280-X Aquanaut stands out with its automatic turn-on-and-go operation, eliminating the need for complex setup procedures. Its advanced VLF-IB (Very Low Frequency-Induction Balance) discrimination technology allows you to distinguish between valuable finds and unwanted trash, enhancing your detecting efficiency. The target strength LED indicator aids in identifying the potential size and depth of detected objects, while the renowned quartz-crystal circuitry extends battery life to an impressive 75 hours, ensuring prolonged searches without frequent battery changes.Designed with practicality in mind, the control box of the 1280-X can be conveniently converted to a belt mount for hands-free operation, allowing for greater mobility and comfort during long detecting sessions. Fisher Research Laboratory's commitment to durability is evident in the construction of the 1280-X. The lightweight searchcoil is reinforced with glass-bead epoxy, the shaft is crafted from fiberglass-reinforced ABS, and the control housing is made of robust injection-molded ABS, all contributing to the detector's ruggedness.Submersible up to 250 feet, the 1280-X is built to withstand the pressures of deep-sea exploration, yet it is equally effective in freshwater environments and on dry land. This adaptability is further enhanced by the detector's automatic tuning to different ground conditions and saltwater, ensuring optimal performance without the need for constant adjustments.The 1280-X operates as a motion detector, requiring movement of the searchcoil to detect targets. However, the sensitivity of the system allows for minimal motion, making pinpointing more accurate and less strenuous. The state-of-the-art Piezo Electric headset, specifically designed for the 1280-X, provides clear audio feedback even in the challenging underwater environment.Control is straightforward with the dual-function power on-off/volume potentiometer and switch, as well as the battery test/sensitivity dual-function potentiometer and switch. The full-range trash rejection potentiometer ensures that you can filter out undesirable items, focusing your search on the treasures that matter.In summary, the Fisher 1280-X Underwater All-Purpose Metal Detector is a testament to Fisher Research Laboratory's long-standing heritage of producing high-performance, high-quality metal detectors since 1931. Whether you're seeking lost relics beneath the waves or scanning the beach for hidden gems, the 1280-X is a precision instrument designed to elevate your metal detecting to new depths.
