Minelab - Manticore High Power Metal Detector
MANTICORE with Multi-IQ+ is the most powerful, fastest, and most precise metal detector in Minelab’s history. The heart of MANTICORE is its super-charged Simultaneous Multi-Frequency (MULTI-IQ+) engine. This feat of innovation generates an incredible 50% power increase over the best-selling detector series of all time: EQUINOX. When combined with advanced 2D Target Identification (ID) and rich audio options, the detectorist has every bit of vital information arriving at their eyes and ears. MANTICORE is an unrivaled detecting experience that pushes the boundaries of detecting to deliver more power, more depth, and more finds.
Manticore finds targets faster, more clearly, and in even the most challenging environments. With impressive capabilities and technologies, nothing will go undetected. More effective than even the most high-end models in the market, Manticore brings power, precision, and accuracy to detecting in a way that wasn’t previously possible.
Minelab Manticore Features
MULTI IQ+
Minelab’s revolutionary technology has 50% more power than traditional models and is the highest-powered simultaneous multi-frequency machine on the market.
High Power Simultaneous Multi-Frequency
Low frequencies typically give more depth on large targets than high frequencies, which are usually more sensitive to small targets. With Multi-IQ you can operate across the full spectrum of frequencies simultaneously for maximum results.
FAST RESPONSE
Identify your targets quickly and confidently to efficiently sort between trash and treasure with exceptional target separation performance.
POWERFUL 2D ID MAP
Identify your targets with greater visual and audible target insights.
ENHANCED DISCRIMINATION
Exceeding expectations with every swing, MANTICORE delivers improved Target ID stability and close target separation. With customisable Ferrous Limits, you have unprecedented control to accept ferrous coins, reject complex ferrous targets, or dial in maximum target unmasking in iron.
CLEAR AUDIO
Built-in external speaker allows for crystal-clear audio and comes with Low Latency Wireless Headphones.
AUDIO YOUR WAY
Take control of audio with MANTICORE. Hear target information the way you like it via superior audio controls including customisable target tones, suppression of Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) chatter and Continuous Pitch (VCO) audio with ferrous tones and genuine threshold detection tone.
WIRELESS AUDIO
Clearly detect with audio controls set specifically for you in order to identify targets confidently, reduce noise and identify trash.
ULTIMATE SEARCH MODES
MANTICORE delivers over 10 customisable Search Modes including All-Terrain optimised for inland detecting; Beach optimised for sand, surf and seawater zones; and Goldfield optimised for detecting gold nuggets.
UNRIVALLED CONSTRUCTION & EXTREME WATERPROOF
Powerful yet lightweight, Manticore weighs only 1.3 kg (2.9 lbs.) and includes a three-piece, compact Carbon-Fibre shaft system. No terrain is off limits with MANTICORE — dive up to 5 m (16 ft) for underwater exploration (IP68 Rating) to find hidden targets others can’t reach.
COMPACT & LIGHTWEIGHT
1.3 kg / 2.9 lb with an extended length of 1440 mm / 56.7 and a collapsible length of 630 mm / 24.8 inch.
INTUITIVE CONTROL
The large LCD panel allows for easy viewing and clear navigation control. Having cutting-edge technology inside our Minelab machines is only half the story. Making MANTICORE’s power easy to access is equally as important. That’s why MANTICORE features a large colour screen and delivers the most intuitive user experience ever found on a detector.
LIGHTING & VIBRATION
The daylight may have ended, but that doesn’t mean your hunt has to. With Control Pod Flashlight, Display Backlight with Auto Adjust, and Backlit Keypad, plus Handgrip Vibration, you can power on long after the sun has gone.
BOOSTED EMI IMMUNITY
In challenging environments, improved EMI rejection uses higher sensitivity to isolate targets. There may be a storm raging outside but inside MANTICORE it’s quiet and calm. Improved EMI rejection means it’s possible to operate using higher sensitivity whilst isolating target information — even in the most challenging environmental conditions.
CHOICE OF COILS
Comes standard with the M11 (11" Round Double-D coil) and choose from M8 (8"x5.5" Elliptical Double-D) and M15 (15"x12" Elliptical Double-D) coils (sold separately).
BUILT TO LAST
A three-year warranty with software upgrade capability allows detection far into the future.
Other Key Technologies
5FX8 - The Manticore offers 5 single frequencies of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 40 kHz, giving an expanded 8-times range of 5 to 40 kHz.
