Good job mate, i got the same modell got it for 20 $ and it does the job perfectlly, even found an iron coin at about 50-60 cm, so it-s pretty good. With the gold is a bit odd because of the trash, but not bad. great vid!
Do you still have this model? If so, still like it? Been looking at the Fisher f44, Eurotek Pro, and others. If you've used the others, how would you compare it! Thanks!!
Yes I do still have it, the only other detectors I have used enough to comment on are the older bounty hunter tracker IV, the whites DFX and the Whites V3i. As far as comparing the 3300 to these detectors I would say the following. It is better in pretty well every way compared to the Tracker IV, comparing it to the DFX and V3i is a bit more difficult because you are talking a pretty huge price gap between the 3300 and those models. But as far as comparison between the Whites and the 3300 the 3300 is much lighter and is a better turn on and go machine than the Whites, the learning curve to the 3300 is much much shorter than the Whites. The whites are much more flexible, tunable, can have better depth if setup right and can be more effective at separating trash. For a new detectorist out of the four detectors that I have I would for sure recommend the 3300. It's just easy to use and learn and learning a detector well will play a large part in how successful you are with it.
Very nice video, thank you,. I do have a question, I can not find just the in ear earphones jack adapter, I really do not like them huge headphones, any suggestions?. Thanks again
I just purchased a used bounty hunter, the same as this, I've been watching a lot of guys on TH-cam and had to give it a go, I bought mine for $85. So that's a lot of pennies. 😉 Take care Rob
That means the detector thinks the target is a US silver dollar coin. But it could also be a huge chunk of buried iron, you can usually tell by pinpointing to see how big the target is.
I do not know the value. Real of the 3300 model but I bought one on ebay for 116 dollars. is in perfect condition. I was looking for a 300 garret so I want to know if they are similar and if it is a reasonable price. Thank you for your quick response and you got another follower
Thanks for the follow. That seems like a pretty good deal to me on the 3300. I don't have any personal experience with the Garret 300 but it doesn't look like the ground balance is adjust able so it may have issues in tricky soil situations. I would probably choose the 3300 just based on the ability to adjust the ground balance.
I don't have the detector in front of me right now but if I remember correctly you just hit the Disc/A-M button again to get back into the search mode you want to be in.
Because of you I bought this unit for $84 at Costco. I was using a Tesoro but after they went out of business I’m out of there. With the Tesoro you would depend on sounds for discrimination. Aluminum wouldn’t give a solid tone but break up. Does this do anything like this beside vid numbers? I’ll have to learn ground balance!
Great I am happy the videos helped out. I think you will like the 3300, just like any detector the more use it the better you will get with it. The discovery just has different pitch tone for different metals. Lower tones are less conductive metals and higher are more conductive in general.
Chadd Thompson do you have any suggestions on how to hunt with the 3300? I want to find some gold but don’t want to dig everything! With my Tesoro I would get a clear audio tone on good targets and it would break up on bad targets. Please advise!
@@TheGbortnick If you want to find gold unfortunately you have to dig pull tabs no matter what detector you are using. It's the same with my whites v3i and dfx. If you are coin shooting and looking for silver on the other hand you can pretty reliably just ignore pull tabs. But if you want gold you have to dig those tab signals too. Also once you get more comfortable with the detector you can tell from the VDI if it jumps around quite a bit normally it is either a trash signal or there could be something in the same area as the good target.
Yes you can upgrade the coil I have a DD coil on mine, the one you want to get is for a fisher f4 with the push on style connector. This is the one that I used www.metaldetectors.com/11-dd-fisher-search-coil-with-push-in-connector-f2-f4

Chadd Thompson well I spoke with someone at Bounty Hunter and I was told they are the same detector and the 3300 has the digital readout and Pinpoint feature.I know the QD II also has automatic ground balance and the 3300 does not.I am keeping the Discovery 3300 simply because I prefer the digital display and having a manual ground balance.
Hey Chadd , I was hoping you throw a 2 gram gold nugget in there to see if it pick it up ? 2 gram is equivalent to a size bb I guess ? She was digging up much bigger nuggets with it ! I saw a video where a woman was using a BH Discovery 3300 to dig up gold nugget . It looks pretty dam real ! What your take on that ? Let me know if you want me to send the video to you ? Thanks
It can but it mainly depends on the size and shape of the gold. Basically if you want to find gold jewlery you dig a lot of trash, that's not only with the 3300 but really all detectors. Some of the higher end detectors do better job but if you don't dig tabs you will miss stuff for sure.
This thing is only $99 right now on Amazon. Sold an F2 last year and have been detectorless since. Couldn't pass this up for $99. I think it's more detector than my old F2 and for half what I paid for the F2 a few years ago.

Great video, Just picked up the hobby.
Very informative! Thanks for the video
Excellent video... Thank you.
Thanks for posting this, very helpful...LM
Thanks for watching.
Thanks, Gold seems to ring up between pull tab and screw cap on my 3300.

The coil is waterproof so as long as you don't get the control box/connector wet you are fine.
Impressed I’ve had may professional detectors but this looks great for price
For the money I don't think it can be beat. Sure it is missing some of the features of the higher priced units but it has all the important features.
Do you still have this model? If so, still like it? Been looking at the Fisher f44, Eurotek Pro, and others. If you've used the others, how would you compare it!

You want to get a 1/4" to 1/8" adapter. They sell them on amazon and maybe even walmart. Radioshack carried them back in the day too.

i got it for father day need to understand it more u have any more video to use it beside this one
thanks good video
No problem thanks for watching.
Please - When the pointer moves in the metal detector and heads towards the $1 sign, what does it mean?
That means the detector thinks the target is a US silver dollar coin. But it could also be a huge chunk of buried iron, you can usually tell by pinpointing to see how big the target is.
@@chaddthompson thanks YOU brother
@@user-ge1hh5mb9i No problem.
Same as the f4?
Yes it can, gold is pretty difficult to pick out of common trash items. If you want to find gold you pretty well have to dig everything.
If you really want to find something valuable, you must dig everything. I don't walk past a good hit.
@@SuperCyril2 That is correct, if you want good stuff you dig a lot of junk
I do not know the value. Real of the 3300 model but I bought one on ebay for 116 dollars. is in perfect condition. I was looking for a 300 garret so I want to know if they are similar and if it is a reasonable price. Thank you for your quick response and you got another follower

Once you turn on the pinpoint how do you turn it off without shutting down the whole thing?
I don't have the detector in front of me right now but if I remember correctly you just hit the Disc/A-M button again to get back into the search mode you want to be in.
Bounty hunter detector's are great. I heard they are made by fisher labs. Not sure if that's true or just a rumor. Good luck hunting.
BH used to make their own stuff not sure if that is still the case or not. I do know that some BH and Fisher coils interchange.
Anyone knows what the 199 number means? I was getting a lot of 199 and the last arrow but have no idea what that is... thanks for the help
150-199 => large metal object
Sandra Wiseman why would you not dig it up? It kind of defeats the purpose of searching if you don’t dig the signal you find.

@joe blow Maybe a little more depth but more so I noticed the difference in target separation and better recovery time with it.
@joe blow Not that I know of.
Hi what type of battery do you use? Do you use rechargeable batteries?
I use 550mAh Li-ion rechargeable 9V batteries that I purchased from Amazon.
Chadd Thompson
Have you a link or a picture for me? Or can you make a video, where I can see the type. Thank you
Björn Mielke www.amazon.com/Combo-9V-MaximalPower-Rechargebale-Batteries/dp/B007VIZRAW/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1392263678&sr=8-4&keywords=550mAh+9v+Li-Ion
Those are the ones that I use, they were a bit cheaper when I bought them though.
Chadd Thompson have you got a picture for me?
Yes I have a few other videos on the 3300. If you click on my name it will take you to my channel with the rest of the videos.
Thanks for watching.
Chadd Thompson
How does it rate against the Quick Draw II?
Can't say for sure on that one I have never used a Quick Draw II
Chadd Thompson well I spoke with someone at Bounty Hunter and I was told they are the same detector and the 3300 has the digital readout and Pinpoint feature.I know the QD II also has automatic ground balance and the 3300 does not.I am keeping the Discovery 3300 simply because I prefer the digital display and having a manual ground balance.
@@1OFGODSOWN Yeah I would definitely prefer a manually adjustable ground balance over auto any day..

I have no doubt that it would gold. Not really anywhere near me to hung gold nuggets :0(
I heard that gold pops up as a pull tab?
It can but it mainly depends on the size and shape of the gold. Basically if you want to find gold jewlery you dig a lot of trash, that's not only with the 3300 but really all detectors. Some of the higher end detectors do better job but if you don't dig tabs you will miss stuff for sure.

Yep I agree, I would much rather have the 3300 than an F2.
I was gonna buy the tracker 4 but this seems like a way better machine
Yes a much better machine for sure. I started out with a Tracker and while it was good the 3300 is much better.
should i buy it is it good for 243$ ?
Luka Ivanovski
I just picked one up on a whim at my local Costco for $100 tonight. Shop around...
How many Pakistani price
Sorry I am not sure on that one, I don't know what the availability is over there.
