Teknetics EuroTek: The Cheapest Detector We Sell That Tells You a Number
Under $150, most detectors beep and leave you guessing. The EuroTek is the exception that made us stock it: a real 1 to 99 numeric target ID on a big display, where 1 to 39 reads iron and 40 to 99 reads worth-digging. That single feature is the difference between a toy and a first detector, because learning what numbers match what targets is how every detectorist actually gets good.
Why the EuroTek
It keeps the essentials and skips the padding. Two clean audio tones, motion discrimination you can dial from 1 to 79 to tune out trash, ten sensitivity steps, a depth indicator, and an overload warning for shallow big iron. The 8 in (20 cm) concentric coil is waterproof for creek edges and wet grass. At 2 lb 5.5 oz (1.08 kg), a teenager or a grandparent can swing it for hours, and one 9V battery keeps it hunting. Made in the USA by First Texas, with the same support line that backs our four-figure machines. If you outgrow it, its numbers-first learning carries straight up the Teknetics line we also stock.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Teknetics EuroTek good for a beginner?
It is one of the best true entry detectors sold, because its 1 to 99 numeric target ID teaches you what you are swinging over from day one instead of leaving you guessing at beeps.
What do the numbers mean?
1 to 39 indicates ferrous (iron) targets; 40 to 99 indicates non-ferrous targets like coins and jewelry. Two audio tones back the numbers up.
Is it waterproof?
The 8 in (20 cm) concentric coil is waterproof; the control housing is not submersible.
EuroTek or EuroTek Pro?
The Pro adds an 11 in DD coil, FeTone iron audio, V-Break tone control, an iron LED, and 3-tone audio. In iron-heavy sites or for more depth, step up; for a first machine or a gift, the EuroTek is the honest value.
What battery does it use?
A single 9V. There is also a standard 1/4 in headphone jack.
