A Familiar Feel
When one picks up the new Explorer SE one can instantly feel that familiar solid
grip but with the new and lighter coil that feel is so much better and is very
noticeable when sweeping the detector in a location such as a wood or a stubble
field where there might be objects to be avoided - it handles very well. The unit is
noticeably better balanced and feels better "in the hand" while also easier to just
skim across the surface of the ground.
Performance - In The Lab
During development of the new "SE" many hundreds of hours were spent with the
new unit putting it through countless bench tests in order to guarantee the full
and authentic and by now legendary characteristic accuracy of target information
to ensure the new SE was consistent with known performance parameters.
Together with the added functional and performance related improvements, more
subtle improvements were also incorporated into the SE such as the featuring of
new and larger fonts designed to give a greater amount of pixel space to
reproducing much larger numeric displays on the Digital screen. Explorer SE is now
much easier to read even fully extended away from the body. Numeric consistency
for all target values has been carried over to Explorer SE whilst maintaining the
usual degree of perfect audio clarity of all appropriate conductive responses on
hundreds of targets.
With the added improvements to increase start-up sensitivity the Factory setting
does now sound sharper and crisper on targets.
Performance - Outside
Serious devotees of the Explorer detectors use it for absolute and extreme depth
and the sheer amount of information it provides on targets both audibly and
visually via the various detection screens. In this regard, Explorer SE does not
disappoint! It continues that tradition of sheer usability everywhere and, does so
with a level of electronic stability that has to be experienced to be appreciated. On
wet salt water beaches, pastures, woodland and industrial river foreshore areas it
excelled with such ease that it became almost second nature to use whilst
providing critical information to the senses. The stability and reliability of the
information provided proved foolproof and above all else, highly accurate. All the
electronic functions worked in tandem, seamlessly providing reliable, dependable
