Vortex VX7 Metal Detector (GAR1142960)

Vortex VX7 Metal Detector is a highly capable multi-frequency model designed for serious treasure hunting on beaches, in surf, and around coins. It expands beyond the VX5 with more frequencies and modes, including a powerful Multi-Frequency Salt mode that handles wet sand and saltwater shorelines with ease. A two-tier Target ID display shows ferrous and non-ferrous targets separately, while multiple audio tones and an adjustable recovery speed help you distinguish desirable targets from trash for faster, more confident digs.

Lightweight and easy to transport, the VX7 collapses to about 24.75 inches and extends to 56.75 inches, weighing roughly 3 pounds with the coil cover installed. It uses MD-MF technology that enables upgrades within the Vortex family via software updates, letting a VX-5 become a VX-7 or VX-9 over time. Four frequency options (5 kHz, 13 kHz, Multi, and Multi-Salt) and a versatile search-mode lineup—including Beach, Standard, US Coins, Zero Discrimination, and Pinpoint—combine with submersion to 16 feet, a backlit display, a long-lasting rechargeable battery, Iron Volume control, and wireless operation for cord-free hunting.
