The XP ORX weighs 1 pound 14 ounces (870 grams) with the remote control hip-mounted, making it one of the lightest detectors on the market. The patented XP LITE S-telescopic stem combines an S-shaped curve for ergonomic balance with a straight telescopic section for quick length adjustment. In practice, the light weight and balanced design reduce wrist and shoulder fatigue during all-day hunts. We've run the ORX for six-hour sessions in goldfields without significant arm strain, a marked improvement over heavier detectors with fixed shafts. The stem folds for transport in seconds, fitting in a backpack or carry-on luggage.
