The Tesoro Compadre metal detector was designed with the idea that less is more. The Compadre can do a lot of the same things that it’s bigger competitors can do. The Tesoro Compadre works great for coin hunting, competition hunting and relic hunting, and it does it without any unnecessary knobs or dials. Simply switch on the detector and you’re working in the silent search, motion all-metal mode.
If you turn the knob further, the more discrimination you can bring to those trashy areas you may be in. The Compadre is a great metal detector for the beginner and can please even a seasoned veteran. The beginner will appreciate the lack of knobs and the advanced user will be impressed with it’s high gain circuitry. Perhaps less really is more, as the Tesoro Compadre can do all this.
The Tesoro Compadre could very well be Tesoro’s best kept secret when it comes to value and top performance. The Compadre is a real ‘grab and go’ machine when you just want to head out to the local park to collect a few hidden coins or bring it out when you have company and want to show your pals how a metal detector works. The Tesoro Compadre gives excellent target separation and has great depth detection. The unit is lightweight and well-balanced, and it is a great metal detector to teach children how to operate.
The Compadre comes equipped with an earphone jack, speaker, has a pole locking system (no more wobbling), and weighs just 2.3 pounds. It operates on one 9 volt battery with battery life being 10 to 20 hours. The operational frequency is 10 kHz and the search coil size is 5.75 inches. The Tesoro Compadre can be operated without effort by everyone in the family with it’s simple operation.
So if you are looking for a ‘bare bones’ metal detector that delivers both in performance and durability..then check out the Tesoro Compadre.
