I am considering adding another detector for relic hunting. Which of the two would you pick and why? I am considering a Tesoro Tejon or Deep Tech warrior.
Thanks for your input.

Do not sleep on the Deeptech units. They are the best deep, relic machines I have come across yet.

The Tesoro Tejon with the 5.75 inch concentric search coil will getter done when it comes to relic hunting in dense iron. I don't know anything about the Warrior.

Personally, I'd buy a Vaquero and save a bit of cash. Doubt you'd see any depth difference, and for the $150 difference you could buy a 5.75" coil to go with it.

Thanks for the input guys, I'm going with the Deeptech. I got a deal on a used one from a forum member.
