So what's changed? E1500 vs E1500 Plus:
The E1500 Plus maintains the outstanding detection performance of the original E1500 with thoughtful upgrades designed for improved usability:
Enhanced Speaker Volume
Featuring a louder and crisper speaker, the E1500 Plus is perfect for environments requiring higher sound output.
Optimised Headphone Connector Placement:
While the E1500’s headphone connector is positioned at the rear of the control box, the E1500 Plus places it conveniently in the handle, with an extension cable secured along the upper shaft for easier user access.
Note: the E1500 Plus is no longer supplied with a carry bag.
Uncover Gold with Ultra-Fine Pulse Induction Technology: VLF Sensitivity, PI Power, Affordable Excellence
Designed & Assembled in Australia by ALGOFORCE PTY LTD
The AlgoForce E1500 is a pulse induction metal detector that excels at locating very small gold nuggets in often complex mineralised soils found in most goldfields. Developed by AlgoForce Pty Ltd, it harnesses patented Ultra-Fine pulse induction technology, which is capable of detecting even the tiniest of gold nuggets. This sensitivity matches that of VLF gold detectors in low mineral soils, but being a PI detector, it has a bigger advantage in highly mineralised terrains.
Features:
- Patented Ultra-Fine pulse induction technology for detecting very small gold nuggets
- 3-piece Carbon Fibre stem for compact pack down
- Powered by any portable USB power bank (not included, 3AH minimum)
- Patented technology for ambient sound awareness in headphone mode
- Ground drift indicator - shows when your ground balance is out
- Wide sensitivity range to suit most environments
- Stable conductive target ID (0-99) in pinpoint mode even in highly mineralised soils
- Dual ground balanced detection channels for different sized nuggets
- Four detection modes - Ultra-Fine, Fine, Normal, Large (3 Pulse Delay Options)
- Soil type setting - Mineralised / Mild / Beach
- Lightweight (840g without coil or power bank)
- Compatible with all 5-pin SD/GP/GPX series compatible mono coils*
- Coil optimisation function, with five coil save slots
- Auto or Manual Frequency Scan (Noise Cancel)
- Auto Ground Balance reset
- Real time scrolling signal display
- Independent threshold, tone, audio treble and volume levels
- Adjustable Backlight
- 2 yr warranty (transferrable)
Both VLF and PI metal detectors come with their own array of advantages and limitations. The choice between the two hinges on the user's specific requirements and budget. The AlgoForce E1500 bridges the gap, offering a high performance, cost effective PI alternative for users seeking a detector that combines VLF's sensitivity to small nuggets and fine jewellery, but with a Pulse Induction detectors ability to detect in mineralised soils and on beaches.
NOTE: The E1500 Plus works very well with Nugget Finder Evolution & Coiltek Elite coils, but other recommended coils include: Detech 8" Mono, Nugget Finder 8x6" Sadie, and 12x7" Advantage Mono etc. Several other coils may work well, but not all coils will calibrate in Ultra Fine mode. If that is the case, then it is better to use Fine or Normal modes.
Please note: DD coils will not function as a DD coil as the receive winding is ignored.

Latest Software
Software V1.1.3 includes the following updates and improvements:
1. Enhanced Display Theme Switching:
Previously, switching between dark and light display themes was only possible through the Miscellaneous settings menu.
Now, users can switch display themes from anywhere by holding the Backlight/Theme button, providing greater convenience and ease of use.
2. New Inverted Audio Options in Pinpoint Mode:
Added 5 Tones Inv. and 100 Tones Inv. audio settings, offering an alternative feedback option. These settings take advantage of human sensitivity to high-pitched sounds to improve target identification:
5 Tones and 100 Tones: Best for identifying highly conductive targets with higher target IDs.
5 Tones Inv. and 100 Tones Inv.: Ideal for detecting small items, such as gold nuggets, with lower target IDs, as higher-pitched tones are used to highlight these signals.
