Why Choose the Garrett Vortex VX5?

The Garrett Vortex VX5 is designed for detectorists who want a simple, capable, and versatile metal detector. Its fast fixed Recovery Speed helps separate targets that are positioned close together, while the single-tier MD-MF Target ID scale and three audio tones make it easier to interpret potential finds before digging.

Its lightweight construction, waterproof design, multiple search modes, and frequency flexibility make it suitable for detecting in parks, fields, beaches, shorelines, streams, and shallow-water environments.

Single Frequency and Simultaneous Multi-Frequency Detection

The Vortex VX5 gives you two frequency options. Use 13 kHz single frequency for a responsive detecting experience or switch to simultaneous Multi-Frequency operation for broad target coverage across different ground conditions.

This flexibility makes the VX5 a strong all-purpose metal detector for users who hunt multiple locations and search for different types of targets.

Fully Waterproof to 16 Feet

The Garrett Vortex VX5 is fully waterproof and submersible to 16 feet (5 meters), allowing you to expand your search beyond dry land.

Use it in streams, lakes, shorelines, wet sand, beaches, and shallow-water environments. The included 8.5" x 11" DD Raider Submersible Searchcoil provides a practical balance of ground coverage, target separation, and maneuverability.

Four Search Modes for Different Hunting Conditions

The Garrett Vortex VX5 includes four search modes for different types of treasure hunting:

• Zero Discrimination: Hear the full range of detected targets.
• Standard Mode: Ideal for relic hunting, jewelry searching, and most international coins.
• US Coins Mode: Designed for convenient coin hunting in the United States.
• Custom Mode: Configure your preferred search settings.

The VX5 also features a dedicated Pinpoint function to help narrow down the exact location of a detected target before recovery.

Fast Target Recovery Speed

The Vortex VX5 uses a fast fixed Recovery Speed that helps distinguish individual targets when multiple metal objects are located close together.

This is particularly useful in parks, old home sites, fields, and other locations where desirable targets may be surrounded by unwanted metal.

High-Resolution Ground Balance

The Garrett Vortex VX5 provides 175 points of Ground Balance resolution, ranging from ferrous ground conditions to saltwater environments. This helps the detector adapt to varying levels of ground mineralization and changing search conditions.

Garrett Iron Audio

Garrett Iron Audio provides additional audio information about discriminated iron and can help identify challenging iron targets such as bottle caps and steel washers.

This feature can help you better understand what is beneath the searchcoil and reduce time spent recovering unwanted targets.

Eight Sensitivity and Depth Adjustments

With eight Sensitivity/Depth settings, you can adjust the Garrett Vortex VX5 according to the conditions at your detecting site.

Increase sensitivity when the ground is stable or reduce it in areas affected by difficult mineralization, electrical interference, or excessive detector chatter.

Frequency Shift for EMI Reduction

The built-in Frequency Shift function helps reduce electromagnetic interference caused by nearby electronics, power sources, or other metal detectors.

This allows you to fine-tune the detector for more stable operation in challenging environments.

Backlit LCD for Low-Light Hunting

The Vortex VX5 includes a backlit LCD display, making important target information easier to read in low-light conditions, including early-morning and evening hunts.

Rechargeable Battery With Approximately 15 Hours of Runtime

A built-in lithium-ion rechargeable battery provides approximately 15 hours of search time per charge, helping you spend more time detecting without relying on disposable batteries.

Lightweight and Collapsible Design

The Garrett Vortex VX5 weighs approximately 3 lbs. (1.38 kg) with the coil cover installed, helping reduce fatigue during longer detecting sessions.

It collapses to approximately 24.75 inches (62.86 cm) for storage and transportation and extends to approximately 56.75 inches (144.14 cm) when in use.

Garrett AT Z-LYNK POINTER Included

This bundle includes the Garrett AT Z-LYNK POINTER, giving you a dedicated handheld pinpointer to help locate targets after you open the recovery area.

A pinpointer can significantly speed up target recovery by helping you identify the exact position of coins, jewelry, relics, and other small metal objects inside a plug, hole, sand scoop, or loose soil.

Pairing a full-size detector with a handheld pinpointer creates a more efficient detecting setup, allowing you to spend less time searching through loose material and more time moving on to the next target.
