Hi,
I am new to metal detecting and this might sound kind of like a dumb question. I have noticed that some metal detectors like White's, Bounty Hunter, etc. use two 9 Volt batteries which equals 18 Volts (Total). While other metal detectors, like Garrett use four Double AA batteries. Double AA batteries are each 1.5Volts, so four Double AA batteries equals 6Volts (Total).
Does a metal detector that uses two 9Volt batteries have any more power, stronger magnetic field, deeper depth finding, or any other advantages over using a metal detector with four Double AA batteries?
