Before upgrades. Before newer models. There was the original.
The AKS LR-TR 2018 is one of the most recognised long-range gold prospecting detectors released by AKS GROUP. Launched at the end of 2017, this model quickly gained global demand thanks to its targeted long-range detection technology and professional-level performance.
Even today, many experienced users prefer this version because it delivers reliable detection power at a more accessible price compared to upgraded models.
If you are looking to buy a metal detector focused on long-range gold, silver, copper, or diamond detection, this device remains a strong contender.
The AKS LR-TR 2018 operates using advanced DDT technology combined with LR-TR transmission and receiving systems. These systems are built for directional long-distance targeting rather than traditional ground scanning.
This professional metal detector is designed for:
It uses program-based targeting modes that help refine search accuracy depending on your objective.
The system includes multiple working programs such as:
These programs allow the operator to customise detection based on the specific target type and field conditions.
Unlike many devices in the market, this model does not require mandatory additional filters to operate. You can begin working immediately. Optional filters can be added later if desired.
The AKS LR-TR 2018 is not a basic hobby metal detector. It belongs in the category of professional metal detectors used for structured gold prospecting and long-range exploration.
For buyers searching for:
This device offers focused detection without unnecessary complexity.
Every AKS LR-TR 2018 package includes:
Each device comes with authenticity verification. Due to imitation products in the market, buyers should always verify the serial number through the official authentication system.
Although newer versions exist, many prospectors prefer the AKS LR-TR 2018 because:
For those researching price versus performance, this model often provides strong value.
£2,100. The upgraded LR-TR PRO is £2,300, so the original is £200 less and many experienced users still prefer it.
Price and simplicity. It delivers reliable long range detection at a lower cost than the upgraded versions, and it does not require mandatory additional filters to work. You can begin immediately and add optional filters later if you want them.
Signal processing. The PRO refines the electromagnetic signals from the six antennas through an improved chip. If you work complex terrain where stability matters, that is worth the £200. On straightforward ground it is less noticeable.
ALL, EPP, PP, Tracking and Light modes, the same set as the PRO. Each lets you adapt the search to the target type and the field conditions you are actually in.
Main unit, control unit, six targeted antennas, a wall charger, a military protective case, user manual, warranty card and a unique serial number. Note the PRO package adds a super large antenna and a car charger.
Through the official authentication system, using the unique serial number. Imitation AKS products circulate and do not perform. Always verify the serial rather than trusting a low price from an unfamiliar seller.
Launched at the end of 2017, and it gained global demand quickly. It remains a current product with warranty and support handled by us in the UK, which is why we still stock it alongside the newer models.
No. It belongs in the professional long range category, used for structured gold prospecting rather than hobby detecting. If you want to find coins in British fields, our coil machines will serve you better.
Gold, silver, copper and diamond, through the targeted long range detection system. Selecting a target type before you start is what narrows the readings, and running the same ground twice for two different targets is normal practice rather than a sign something is wrong.
No, and that is one of the reasons people still choose this model. It works out of the box without mandatory additional filters, unlike some devices in this category. You can add optional filters later if your work turns out to need them.
