Famous Trails Metal Detectors

Famous Trails was established in 1970 as a camping material manufacturer. The company started by manufacturing backpacks, tents and other essential things for camping. Because of their success, they expanded their product range which would later include metal detectors.

The metal detectors that were made by Famous Trails are geared towards beginners because of their price and simplified operation. Famous Trails metal detectors are powered by batteries. Entry level metal detectors usually require AAA batteries while high performance Famous Trails metal detectors would require 9-volt batteries. Ease of transportation is also a common trait in Famous Trails metal detectors because of their relatively small size.

All Famous Trails metal detectors have a targeting feature wherein they can select what element should be detected. Users could determine whether they would be looking for iron (ferrous) or non-iron materials. The coil which detects the metal is waterproof because of the terrain or land conditions where metal detectors could be used. To prevent disturbance and ensure privacy from other treasure hunters, a headphone jack is added to the Famous Trails metal detector. The high end products of Famous Trails are often in demand because of their entry level price. At a low price, Famous Trails metal detectors could be used even by professional treasure hunters.
