The equipment also supports both wired and wireless headphone use, allowing users to focus amid the background noise of busy scenes, while its Auto Ground Balance feature mitigates soil interference effectively.
Commitment to Crime Scene Investigations
"Garrett has been serving crime scene investigators since before we had a Security division," remarked Steve Novakovich, CEO of Garrett Metal Detectors.
"For decades, we were the only manufacturer to provide detectors specifically for this market: the CSI 250™ and the CSI Pro™. Now, we're revitalizing our commitment to CSI excellence with the Vortex CSI. This product has all-new software, designed to deliver the performance this market demands with the simplicity it requires. In combination with our recently released PRO-Pointer™ AT Blackline Edition, this product will empower officers and technicians worldwide to identify and recover critical metallic evidence."
Available Options and Purchase Recommendations
Developed at Garrett's Garland, Texas, facility, the Vortex CSI and the PRO-Pointer AT Blackline Edition come with the necessary patent and trademark protections.
The Vortex CSI can be purchased as part of the Vortex CSI Field Kit or as a standalone unit. Garrett advises consumers to only purchase genuine products from reputable sources to ensure quality performance and to support effective security operations.
