Why Choose the Garrett Vortex VX5?

The Garrett Vortex VX5 is built for detectorists who want an easy-to-use metal detector without giving up important performance features. 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 what may be beneath the searchcoil.

Its lightweight design, waterproof construction, multiple search modes, and flexible frequency options make the VX5 suitable for a wide range of detecting environments, from parks and fields to beaches, streams, and shallow-water hunting.

Single Frequency and Simultaneous Multi-Frequency Detection

The Garrett Vortex VX5 gives you two frequency options. Choose 13 kHz single frequency for a powerful and responsive search experience, or use simultaneous Multi-Frequency operation for broad detection performance across different target types and ground conditions.

This versatility makes the VX5 a practical all-purpose metal detector for hunters who search multiple locations rather than focusing on only one type of terrain or target.

Fully Waterproof to 16 Feet

The Garrett Vortex VX5 is fully waterproof and submersible to 16 feet (5 meters), allowing you to detect in environments where many standard detectors cannot go.

Search streams, lakes, shorelines, beaches, wet sand, and shallow-water locations with confidence. The included 8.5" x 11" DD Raider Submersible Searchcoil is designed to provide a useful balance of coverage, maneuverability, and target separation.

Four Versatile Search Modes

The Vortex VX5 includes four search modes that allow you to quickly adapt the detector to 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 the detector according to your preferred search settings.

A dedicated Pinpoint function is also included to help you more precisely locate a detected target before recovery.

Fast Target Recovery Speed

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

This can be especially useful when detecting in parks, old home sites, fields, and other areas where desirable targets may be surrounded by unwanted metal.

High-Resolution Ground Balance

The VX5 provides 175 points of Ground Balance resolution, ranging from ferrous ground conditions to saltwater environments. This gives the detector the ability to better adapt to changing mineralization and challenging search conditions.

Garrett Iron Audio

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

This additional audio information can help reduce unnecessary digging and give you a clearer understanding of what the detector is responding to.

Eight Sensitivity and Depth Adjustments

The Vortex VX5 includes eight Sensitivity/Depth settings, allowing you to adjust detector response based on the conditions at your hunting site.

Higher sensitivity can be used when conditions are stable, while lower settings can help maintain smoother operation in difficult ground or locations affected by electrical interference.

Frequency Shift for EMI Reduction

The built-in Frequency Shift function can help reduce electromagnetic interference from nearby electronics, power sources, or other metal detectors.

This allows you to fine-tune the detector for a quieter and more stable search experience in challenging environments.

Backlit LCD for Low-Light Detecting

A backlit LCD display makes important target information easier to see when detecting in low-light conditions, including early mornings, evenings, and nighttime hunts.

Rechargeable Battery With Approximately 15 Hours of Runtime

The Garrett Vortex VX5 uses a built-in lithium-ion rechargeable battery that provides approximately 15 hours of search time per charge.

This rechargeable design helps eliminate the need to regularly purchase and replace 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.

The detector collapses to approximately 24.75 inches (62.86 cm) for convenient storage and transportation and extends to approximately 56.75 inches (144.14 cm) for use.

ClearSound Easy Stow Headphones Included

This bundle includes ClearSound Easy Stow Headphones, giving you a convenient headphone option for listening to detector audio while hunting.

Using headphones can make subtle target tones easier to hear, especially in environments with background noise, while also keeping detector audio private during your search.
