{"product_id":"quest-air-metal-detector","title":"Quest Air Smartphone Controlled Metal Detector with 9x5\" TurboD Waterproof Coil","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eQuest Air\u003c\/strong\u003e rethinks what a metal detector needs to be. There is no control box at all: your smartphone snaps into the detachable tilting holder, connects over Bluetooth through the free Quest AIR MD app, and becomes a full color display for target ID, depth, modes, and battery. What is left is a clean, cable free 7.5 kHz VLF detector with a waterproof 9x5\" TurboD Double-D coil that weighs about 2.5 lbs (1.14 kg) and folds flat for travel. Slide the shaft together, drop it in a bag, and you have a genuine treasure machine wherever the trip takes you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eYour Phone Is the Control Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery detector you have ever swung made you pay for a screen and buttons. The Air skips them, and that changes the experience in practical ways. The app gives you a large, readable target window with coin, ring, foil, and iron indicators, numeric target ID that pushes iron into negative numbers, a depth reader, and both basic and advanced interfaces so beginners and tinkerers each get the right amount of control. Discrimination, tone options, sixteen volume steps, one press pinpointing, and automatic or manual ground balance are all adjusted on the glass you already know how to use. Prefer to hunt without staring at a screen? Stealth mode lets the phone ride in your pocket while you swing by tone alone. Power is just as clever: a patented magnetic rod switch turns the Air on, and the sealed body has no ports to flood, only a protected USB-C cap for charging. Quest rates the built in battery for up to 10 hours per charge and coin detection down to about 12 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuest Air detector body:\u003c\/strong\u003e telescopic aluminum shaft with flat folding frame, adjustable armrest, and handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e9x5\" TurboD Double-D waterproof search coil\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDetachable tilting phone holder\u003c\/strong\u003e that fits your smartphone (phone not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSB Type-C charging cable\u003c\/strong\u003e with protected charging cap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuest strap\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstruction manual\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAir Performance Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7.5 kHz VLF operating frequency, a stable choice for coins, jewelry, and dry sand hunting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBluetooth connection to the free Quest AIR MD app for iOS and Android, with no data collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge target ID readout with visual icons plus negative numbers that call out iron before you dig\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscrimination and all metal detecting with adjustable tones and 16 volume levels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne press pinpoint mode to zero in on targets and keep dig holes small\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomatic or manual ground balance to quiet mineralized soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSealed, weatherproof construction: rain, wet grass, and shallow dunks to 50 cm are no problem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatented magnetic rod power switch, so there are no buttons to wear out or leak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbout 2.5 lbs (1.14 kg) total weight with a shaft that collapses to roughly 80 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt in rechargeable battery, USB-C charging, up to 10 hours of hunting per charge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 year manufacturer warranty\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\/Quest-air-diagram.jpg?v=1786644588\" alt=\"Quest Air diagram\"\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuest Air at a Glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%;
