PROSPECTOR 150

If its the PR 150 there was a report so months back that was not exactly glowing. Don't forget the manufacturer only claims the coil is water resistant, not waterproof which is a little worrying. I would rather pay more for a brand name machine.

Do yourself a favor and steer away from those Bell/Howell machines... buy reputable brands from reputable dealers

Bell & Howell used to be a respected brand, but then, I think they got bought out and are now just the name stamped on cheap chinese imports of all kinds.
If your funds are limited, the Bounty Hunter line still gets nice reports around here.

B & H went the same way as many old, respected brands. Another example is the once great sewing machine company, Singer. Back in the early 90's, the privately owned company "merged" with another company that raided Singer's contracts and began selling the brand to anyone with cash.
