The Garrett Vortex VX5 Multi-Frequency Waterproof Metal Detector with CS-3 Z-Lynk Wireless Headphones is a versatile detecting package built for coin hunting, relic hunting, jewelry recovery, beach detecting, and general treasure hunting. This bundle combines the lightweight and fully waterproof Garrett Vortex VX5 with Garrett CS-3 Z-Lynk Wireless Headphones for a more comfortable, cable-free detecting experience.
The Vortex VX5 offers both 13 kHz single-frequency operation and simultaneous Multi-Frequency detection, giving you the flexibility to search a wide range of targets and ground conditions. With fast target recovery, high-resolution ground balance, Garrett Iron Audio, multiple search modes, and waterproof construction to 16 feet, the VX5 delivers practical performance for both newer detectorists and experienced hunters looking for a lightweight, easy-to-use detector.
The Garrett Vortex VX5 is designed to give detectorists a strong balance of simplicity, versatility, and detection performance. Its fast fixed Recovery Speed helps separate targets positioned close together, while the single-tier MD-MF Target ID scale and three audio tones make it easier to interpret targets before digging.
Whether you are searching local parks for coins, historic sites for relics, beaches for jewelry, or shallow water for lost valuables, the VX5 gives you multiple detection options in one compact platform.
The Vortex VX5 gives you two frequency options. Select 13 kHz single frequency for a powerful and responsive search experience, or switch to simultaneous Multi-Frequency operation for broad target coverage across varying soil and environmental conditions.
This flexibility makes the Garrett Vortex VX5 an excellent all-purpose metal detector for users who search different locations and target types.
The Garrett Vortex VX5 is fully waterproof and submersible to 16 feet (5 meters). This allows you to search streams, lakes, shorelines, beaches, and shallow-water environments without being limited to dry-land detecting.
The included 8.5" x 11" DD Raider Submersible Searchcoil provides a practical balance of ground coverage, target separation, and maneuverability.
Choose from four search modes depending on the type of hunting you plan to do:
The VX5 also includes a dedicated Pinpoint function to help locate targets more precisely before recovery.
The Vortex VX5 features a fast fixed Recovery Speed that helps the detector distinguish individual targets when multiple objects are located close together. This can be especially useful in parks, older properties, fields, and other target-dense locations.
The VX5 provides 175 points of Ground Balance resolution, ranging from ferrous ground conditions to saltwater environments. This helps the detector adapt more effectively to changing mineralization and difficult ground conditions.
Garrett Iron Audio gives you additional information about discriminated iron targets and can help identify difficult objects such as bottle caps and steel washers. This allows you to make more informed decisions about which targets are worth recovering.
With eight Sensitivity/Depth settings, you can adjust the Garrett Vortex VX5 according to the site you are searching. Increase sensitivity when conditions are stable or reduce it in locations affected by ground noise or electrical interference.
The built-in Frequency Shift feature helps reduce electromagnetic interference from nearby electronics, power sources, or other detectors, allowing for a smoother search experience in challenging environments.
The Vortex VX5 includes a backlit LCD display, making target information easier to read during early-morning hunts, evening searches, and other low-light conditions.
A built-in lithium-ion rechargeable battery provides approximately 15 hours of detecting time per charge, giving you extended search time without relying on disposable batteries.
The Garrett Vortex VX5 weighs approximately 3 lbs. (1.38 kg) with the coil cover installed, making it comfortable for longer detecting sessions.
It collapses to approximately 24.75 inches (62.86 cm) for easier transportation and storage and extends to approximately 56.75 inches (144.14 cm) when in use.

This bundle includes Garrett CS-3 Z-Lynk Wireless Headphones, giving you the convenience of wireless audio while detecting. Wireless headphones eliminate the need for a traditional headphone cable between you and the detector, allowing greater freedom of movement while searching and recovering targets.
They also help you hear detector tones more clearly in noisy environments while keeping your audio private.
The Garrett Vortex VX5 is a strong choice for detectorists looking for a lightweight, waterproof, multi-frequency detector that can handle a wide variety of hunting environments.
