White's Electronics Spectra V3

By Andy Sabisch

White’s Electronics is a metal detector manufacturer that needs no introduction. In operation

for almost 60 years, they have developed the reputation of building quality equipment with

enviable dependability which has often been standard setting in terms of what other

manufacturers worked to meet. Following years of development by their engineering staff and

countless hours of in-field testing by some of the leading detectorists worldwide, White’s has

once again raised the bar in terms of features and performance of high-end detectors.

Their latest addition is called the Spectra V3 and brings technology and features to the metal

detecting industry that even six months ago would have been dismissed as being nothing more

than wishful thinking on the part of users. After spending a number of hours in the field with

this new detector, I realized this field test would be a challenge to cover what the Spectra V3

was capable of within the constraints of the article length, but here goes.

Features

When White’s started developing the V3, they wanted to design a detector that would satisfy

the needs of treasure hunters ranging from novice to veteran. They also worked to address

comments and requests received from end-users over the years in an effort to set a new

standard of performance in terms of detector technology and usability. So, were the engineers

successful? Let’s jump into an overview of some of the standout features on the V3 and see.

The Spectra V3 is not simply a mildly updated model that was already in the White’s line, but

rather an entirely new unit designed from the ground-up. The Spectra V3 is a VLF-based

detector that can operate on three separate frequencies simultaneously for optimal all-purpose

hunting, or on any one of the three frequencies when enhanced performance for specific

applications is desired.

The frequencies and the type of targets they are optimized for are: 2.5 kHz (copper & silver),

7.5 kHz (brass or simply general hunting), and 22.5 kHz (nickel, gold or small targets). The

ability to alter the operating frequency or combine them with a few keystrokes is unique to the

V3 and is a real advantage in the field as conditions or needs change.

It uses the familiar proven and rugged metal control box with a new color screen mounted

above the padded handgrip…yes you read right – color! The screen – which measures

2.5”x2.75” – was designed to allow it to be easily seen under conditions ranging from direct

sunlight to total darkness (thanks to the backlight feature…and the touchpads are also glow in

the dark).

Picking up the assembled V3, its exceptional balance is readily apparent. Sporting the new

10” D2 Double-D coil, it feels much lighter than it is, allowing for hours of fatigue-free

searching. The D2 coil provides better performance in mineralized soil or areas with a high

ferrous-trash content; however, optional coils are available to expand the V3’s versatility.
