GC-1002 Secure Wand Handheld Metal Detector
The GC-1002 has a graduated LED indicator: the light shifts from green to red according to the size of the object detected, so an operator judges a target rather than just hearing an alarm. It resets automatically in 0.5 seconds, runs over 40 hours on 250 mA, weighs 270 g without battery, and survives a 1 m free fall undamaged.
Key benefits
- LED colour changes from green to red with the size of the detected object
- Automatic reset in 0.5 seconds between checks
- Over 40 hours continuous working at 250 mA
- Survives a 1 m free fall without damage

Use guide
- Fit a 9 V battery, or install rechargeables and charge through the plug-in socket
- Select high or low sensitivity
- Read the LED colour shift from green to red as an indication of object size
- Choose LED chirp or vibration alerting for the venue
