Bounty Hunter's Land Ranger Pro, from the same maker, runs 7.6 kHz on an 11-inch DD coil, with All Metal plus six discrimination modes.
All three use a 1 x 9 V (not included) battery. The Delta and Omega carry a 2-year limited warranty, and the Land Ranger Pro lists 2 years.
Weight is close across the three. The Delta comes in at 2.6 lb (1.17 kg), the Omega at 2.5 lb. First Texas gives two figures on its Land Ranger Pro page, 2.87 lb and 2.4 lb.
