Kids can work the wet sand line, tide pools, and shallow creeks without worrying about coil dunks.

That means real target ID logic instead of the random tone behavior of toy detectors. Three audio tones separate iron, mid-conductors, and high conductors so kids can hear the difference between a nail and a quarter before they dig. The custom LCD adds a three-level depth indicator, a battery icon, and dedicated pinpoint and discrimination LEDs. Auto shut-off and an audible low-battery alarm extend run time on the 2 x AA batteries during long sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cfigure\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0760\/1464\/9628\/products\/nokta-makro-midi-hoard-kids-metal-detector-4.jpg?v=1684462367\" alt=\"Nokta Midi Hoard custom LCD display and control panel close-up\"\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuild, Display, and Audio\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 880 g (1.9 lbs), the Midi Hoard is light enough for a small frame to swing for hours without arm fatigue. The retractable shaft adjusts from 83 cm to 109 cm (32.5\" to 43\"), fitting kids from about 7 years old up to teen height. The 18 cm (7\") DD search coil is fully waterproof to the IP68 specification, so submerging it in shallow water is part of the use case rather than a risk. The custom LCD groups depth, mode, battery, and target indicators on one easy-to-read screen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAudio runs through the built-in speaker with two-level volume control. The Midi Hoard does not include a headphone jack, which works well for kids hunting alongside a parent who is coaching tone calls from a few feet away.

Designed for experienced beach hunters who wade and hunt shallow water, the Impulse-AQ operates stable in marine conditions that defeat conventional machines.

Where multi-frequency and single-frequency machines lose depth or require constant ground balancing, the Impulse-AQ maintains consistent threshold and target response across wet salt, dry sand, and black volcanic sand. We've hunted the Impulse-AQ on Oregon coast black sand beaches and Southern California surf zones where the ground signal overwhelms most detectors, the PI circuit cuts through it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWet Salt Beach and Surf Hunting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Impulse-AQ is waterproof to 3 feet, so you can hunt the wash and wade knee-deep where gold jewelry and coins settle after storms. The 12.5-inch mono coil covers ground fast in the wet sand zone and punches deep on high-conductivity targets. Saltwater doesn't load the coil or shift the threshold, you're hunting stable even when waves break over the searchcoil.

You're detecting gold nuggets, rings, and relics at depth without the ground noise. The adjustable pulse delay lets you tune sensitivity versus ground response, lower delay for small gold in moderate black sand, higher delay for depth in heavy concentrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDeep Gold Detection with Adjustable Pulse Delay and Iron Reject\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum sensitivity to low-conductivity gold targets: pulse induction excels on thin chains, small earrings, and fine gold that VLF target ID often misses or rejects as trash.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable pulse delay (7–15 μs) tunes detection window: lower delay increases sensitivity to small gold, higher delay adds depth on larger targets and filters saltwater interference.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable iron reject identifies nails and ferrous trash: the dual-channel processing separates low-conductivity gold response from high-conductivity iron, so you're not digging every nail in an iron-infested beach.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour operating modes cover hunt scenarios: All Metal (4.02–4.17 kHz) for maximum depth, Tone and Mute modes (3.04–3.12 kHz) for audio feedback on target conductivity, Volcanic Sand mode (1.54–1.56 kHz) for extreme mineralization.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight 4.2-pound frame reduces wrist fatigue: the ergonomic shaft and balanced design let you hunt long sessions in the surf without shoulder strain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cfigure\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0760\/1464\/9628\/files\/ImpulseAQ_Inline.jpg?v=1778875827\" alt=\"Fisher Impulse-AQ metal detector with control box, white and burgundy shaft, white search coil, armrest, and black headphones\"\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eManual Tuning for Expert-Level Performance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Impulse-AQ gives you manual control over ATS (Automatic Tuning System), pulse delay, and iron reject.
