Great metal detector but could be better.: If you like coin hunting, the Fisher 1225-X is definitely the metal detector for you. Just turn it on and go! I've owned mine for about 3 months, and I promise you when I say it's dead on, believe me, its dead on. You will bypass a lot of trash and dig a lot of coins. The pinpointing is dead accurate within a 3 inch perimeter. I don't think I've missed a coin yet with this detector. I usually set the discriminator at 5, max out (level 10) the sensitivity level, and leave with at least $2 in clad, after a 2-3 hour session. However, if you're looking for gold, now that's another story. You see with the 1225-X, you have to set the discriminator down to a minimum of 4. Which of course, with this low setting you'll be digging pull tabs, gum wrappers, and more pull tabs. But it works if you have the patience. I found my first gold ring about a week ago; a ladies' 14k beauty, with a butterfly design, that weighed in at 5 grams. However it took me about an hour of digging over 20 pull tabs before I found it. So remember for gold, you must have absolute patience. The 1225-X utilizes two 9 volt batteries and the overall battery life is great. The manual quotes about 50 hours per battery change, which is about right. It only weighs about 3 lbs, which allows me to swing about 3 hours per session. It's a tough detector. I know when I'm in the field; I'm pretty much rough on mine. But it doesn't miss a beat. So far, I haven't had any problems with the 1225-X. I know in time, it will definitely pay itself off and even earn me more pay dirt. I highly recommend this metal detector for beginners and I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another Fisher product.
