"If it
ain't broke - don't fix it!" The Silver Sabre series has remained relatively unchanged for
decades. This detector works so well, designers can't
find much to improve!
The Silver Sabre series has
had a long history in Tesoro Electronics. It was first
introduced in 1983. Advertised as "strong, simple,
silent;" the Silver Sabre has gone through a few changes
over the years. The Silver Sabre Plus added a no motion
all metal circuit. The Silver Sabre II added a new
plastic housing and new Hybrid Circuit technology.
Continuing this tradition, Tesoro
made a few more improvements and introduced the Silver Sabre
µMax.
The original Silver Sabre had Silent
Search discrimination and all metal modes. The new Silver µMax returns
to its roots and offers that same strong, silent and simple operation once
again - but with some nice additions. The
Silver µMax can easily be differentiated
from it's predecessors by it's incredibly small housing, Max Boost technology
(provides increased sensitivity and depth for areas that have lightly
mineralized soil), and a
microprocessor. Operating at a frequency of 10kHz, it provides excellent
sensitivity to gold, silver and low conductive metals such as brass and
lead.
Bottom line: If you're looking for
an inexpensive beach, coin, or relic machine, this detector will perform for
great for you.
