Description
Teknetics T2 Special Edition: The Relic Hunter's Legend, Fully Loaded
The Teknetics T2 earned its reputation the hard way, pulling deep relics out of iron-blanketed Civil War sites where lesser machines drowned in ferrous chatter. The T2 Special Edition (T2LTD-BLK) is that same platform in its top factory trim: black limited livery, both an 11 in (28 cm) and a 5 in (13 cm) waterproof DD coil in the box, and the performance package the standard T2 does not include. If you hunt old ground where iron and history sit in the same hole, this is the machine built for exactly that fight.
Why the T2 Special Edition
Two features define the Special Edition over a base T2: Boost mode, which extends depth when soil conditions allow, and Cache mode, tuned for large, deep targets like caches and strongboxes. Under that sits the fast, information-dense T2 platform detectorists trust: 13 kHz operation, FASTGRAB automatic ground balance with manual override, frequency shifting to dodge EMI, trigger-actuated pinpointing, and 40-plus hours of runtime on 4 AA batteries. The two included DD coils cover both jobs: the 11 in for depth and ground coverage, the 5 in for threading targets out of dense iron and trashy relic sites. This is a genuine two-coil factory package, not an upsell you assemble later.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the T2 Special Edition add over a standard T2?
Boost mode for extra depth, Cache mode for large deep targets, black limited livery, and both an 11 in and a 5 in DD coil in the box rather than a single coil.
What are the two coils for?
The 11 in (28 cm) coil gives depth and ground coverage for open sites; the 5 in (13 cm) coil separates targets in dense iron and trashy relic ground. Having both covers most relic-hunting situations.
What is Cache mode?
A mode tuned to detect large, deep objects such as caches and strongboxes at greater depth than standard coin-and-relic settings.
Is the T2 Special Edition waterproof?
Both DD search coils are waterproof; the control housing is weather-resistant, not submersible.
What battery does it use and how long does it last?
Four AA batteries, good for 40-plus hours of hunting.
Is the T2 good for a beginner?
It is a fast, capable machine that rewards a hunter who learns it. Beginners absolutely run it, but its strengths show most in the hands of someone hunting iron-heavy ground seriously. Call us and we will place you honestly.
