How it differs from its neighbors

Minelab's SDC 2300 is the other Minelab pulse induction model on file, called MPF. The whole detector is submersible to 10 ft (3 m). At 5.1 lb, it is heavier and has one 8-inch monoloop coil, with Normal and Salt modes.

The GPZ 7000 uses ZVT (Zero Voltage Transmission) and the same Normal, Difficult and Severe ground types. At 7.32 lb, it is the heaviest of the three, with a GPZ14 Super-D coil.

Garrett's Axiom is also a pulse induction detector. It weighs 4.2 lb with its smaller mono coil and lists up to 16 hours on its built-in battery.
