Default A question for anyone who might know.....

have a question about the 1350.

I have read that the 1250 is the same as the 1350 but the only difference is that the 1350 has the profiling. Is that correct?

I also see that the 1250 is still forsale ( used ).

Besides the profiling, are there any other differences. If you don't know, perhaps Chuck knows.

Also What are the differences between the ACe250 and the 1250?

BTW I bought a copy of Garretts Treasure Hunting for Fun and Profit. I see that he used the Garrett 1000, or at least thats whats shown in the book.
That detector must be close to 15 or 20 years old. It too is still for sale used.

If the 1250 is the same as the 1350, and the profiling is the only difference, why not just saty with an old true tested machine?

One of the critizism I have picked up is that the 1350 profiling is only good for targets up to 5inches and beyond that it is unreliable. Any information on that?

Regards
Robert R

The profiling was added and the software was upgraded on the 1350. It is essentially a different detector.

Just my 2 cents. I found the the Profiling a nuisance more than a necessity and No other manufacturers scrambled to incorporate this feature as a desired facet. There are many ways to size a target and if you dig a lot of targets the sizing feature just gets in the way and a waste of time in my opiinion. Some may like it but found it more a gimmick than a valuable function. Omit the profiling and highcoin belltone i may have kept the GTP 1350. Liked the other features though, especially the sniper coil option. Just my opinion of course. HH Bill
