SUNPOW's OTMD13 is the cheaper of the two SUNPOW metal detectors in this guide at £63.97, and it takes sixth place out of ten. As described, it is a battery-powered detector with a large LCD screen and an IP68 waterproof coil, sold with a digger shovel, headphones and two batteries. The listing records 4.4 out of 5 from 479 ratings and a best sellers rank of 19 in Metal Detectors.

The oddity sits in the model number. The specification table gives OT-MD17, which is the same model number the guide's £79.98 SUNPOW carries, while the product name ends in OTMD13 and the manufacturer part number reads OTMD13-UK. The two SUNPOW listings also disagree on features: this one offers four detection modes against the other's five, and 479 ratings against 4,527. Everything on this page — price, rating, specs and the figures in the reviews — comes from the Amazon listing and not from any test of our own.
