Elegance and Ease-Of-Use

 
For nearly 40 years, the Super Scanner V™ has been the most trusted security handheld globally, with proven performance, demonstrated durability, and Garrett’s hallmark simplicity. Now, the Garrett Guide™ takes everything that made the Super Scanner V the global standard and raises it to the next level. Guide brings the performance you trust to a new level of refinement and ease-of-use.

  • Durable construction is still hardened to military specs, but Guide adds IP 65 waterproofing and a sleek design that is at home in the most sophisticated environments.
  • Simple features are still easy to use, but Guide adds no-hassle USB recharging and accessible sensitivity selection.
  • Detection capabilities are still top tier, but Guide adds seven discretely selectable sensitivity levels for enhanced consistency.

Next Generation Handheld Security

 
Guide is feature-dense but low on complexity, designed to show the way, not get in the way. Security staff trained on the Super Scanner V will be able port their experience directly to the Guide while enjoying additional quality of life features, while those new to metal detection will be able to get up and running with Guide in only few minutes more.

 
Beyond that, Guide has been thoughtfully designed to serve the needs of security managers, with built-in rechargeability and a compact charging base accessory to charge and store more units in less space
