Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Can it be used in wet environments?
Yes, the MagHorn has a waterproof length of 12 inches, making it suitable for use in damp or wet areas.
Q2: How long does the battery last?
The locator provides up to 40 hours of continuous operation with two 9-volt alkaline batteries.
Q3: What is the difference between ferrous and non-ferrous metals?
Ferrous metals contain iron, such as steel and cast iron. Non-ferrous metals, like aluminum and copper, do not contain iron and are not detected by the MagHorn.
Q4: Does the device require calibration before use?
No calibration is necessary. The MagHorn is designed for quick and easy use without additional setup.
Q5: How does the MagHorn perform on rocky or uneven terrain?
The rugged construction and lightweight design ensure reliable operation even on rocky or uneven terrain.
Q6: What type of audio signals does the MagHorn provide?
The MagHorn emits sharp and clear audio tones through its built-in piezo speaker to indicate proximity to ferrous objects.
Q7: How do I clean and maintain the MagHorn?
Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the exterior. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, and ensure the battery compartment is dry before storing the device.
