The Schonstedt “Maggie" is the Next Generation Magnetic Locator and is the latest addition to the line of popular Schonstedt Locators. Schonstedt Instrument Company set out to further withhold their stellar reputation as the industrys leading manufacturer of location equipment. The Schonstedt Maggie combines the best features of two flagship products; The sensitivity, precision, and reliability of their GA-52Cx model, and the single-handed operation of the GA-92XT. In basic terms, Schonstedt took the best features of their very popular 52Cx model and combined it with the ergonomics of their 92 model and created what we like to call "The best of the best" in the world of magnetic locators. Schonstedt Engineers went back and took user input over the years and come up with features like an easy way to hold their popular 52Cx model and installed a handle on it. Users did not like opening up the 52Cx exposing the electronics just to replace the battery (The Maggie's handle is where the battery is installed and the electronics are not exposed during a battery change). They also listened to their users and made a soft case that can easily fit behind a truck seat, as well as be easily carried with its shoulder strap. Another feature is the knobs are now on top and not under the top like they are on the 52Cx. After stocking and selling Magnetic Locators through our locations for years, the entire staff of Stakemill can assure you that this model was designed for the user with valuable user input, and feel that the "Maggie" will be Schonstedts most popular model going forward. Land Surveyors sometimes call magnetic locators "pin finders", or "survey pin finder", or even a metal detector.
