Durable construction is still military spec, but Guide adds IP 65 waterproofing and a sleek design that is at home in the most sophisticated environments.
Simple features are still easy to use, but Guide adds no-hassle USB recharging and accessible sensitivity selection.
Detection capabilities are still top tier, but Guide adds seven discretely selectable sensitivity levels for enhanced consistency.
