More Control Than ICON ICON-X adds 6 factory programs, 6 user programs, 7 reactivity levels and finer 0.5-point discrimination in the ferrous zone.
28 kHz Mono Option The extra 28 kHz mono frequency helps improve sensitivity to small, fine and lower-conductive targets such as tiny jewellery and small relics.
