Quest Metal Detectors: Waterproof VLF Performance with Wireless Audio

Quest is a manufacturer known for building fully waterproof detectors across its lineup at competitive prices. Every machine — from the entry-level Q20 through the advanced Q60 — is fully submersible, not just waterproof at the coil. This makes Quest a strong option for hunters who want true all-terrain capability, including water use, without paying a premium for waterproofing as an added feature.

Q-Series Model Breakdown

The Quest Q20 is the starting point, offering single-frequency VLF performance with simple controls and full waterproofing — a solid choice for new detectorists who want straightforward operation. The Q30 builds on that with additional detection modes and improved control over target discrimination. The Q40 introduces multi-frequency capability along with wireless audio compatibility, making it a more versatile option for beach and variable soil conditions. At the top of the lineup, the Q60 adds a more refined multi-frequency platform, wireless-first design, and expanded adjustability for experienced users who want greater control.

Quest XPointer Scuba – Dive Detecting Pinpointer

The Quest XPointer Scuba is one of the few purpose-built pinpointers designed for true underwater use. Using pulse induction technology, it maintains performance in saltwater and at depth where standard VLF pinpointers lose sensitivity. For divers and underwater hunters, it fills a specific role that most pinpointers do not address. See waterproof pinpointers.

Quest Accessories

Quest offers a range of accessories designed to complement their detectors, including the Scoopal sand scoop, Diamond Digger, and Wirefree wireless audio system. These accessories are built to integrate with the Q-series platform, making it easier to assemble a complete setup for beach and water detecting. See sand scoops.
