H3 Gold detector? Wha?
Found a thread on the Mythbusters forums talking about the H3Tec Treasure detector. Apaprently, it can detect atoms from up to 2 miles away through "Nano-Ionic Resonance" Enter in what you're looking for, and it will key in on those atoms.
Looking about the archives, I can't find mention of this anywhere. Anyone know about it? Is this related to that DKL detector that Tom Clancy fell for? |

Sounds a lot like the "sniffex". Search "dowsing" and you'll probably find it or a sibling discussed here. I know I've read quite a few posts here over the years related to similar claims.

Human fingernails contain gold. Are they marketing this as a personfinder?

I believe they market it as being able to do that, as well as find explosives. Another article is here.

Yes, sounding more and more like the sniffex:
http://www.randi.org/jr/2007-02/022307sniffex.html#i1 H3 TEC sure smells like a clever dowsing scam along the same lines. I'd love to see an actual test. |

I personally saw and held an H3Tec unit at a recent Treasure Show. It is definitely just a dowsing rod, nothing else.
At one point, I saw two potential "customers" with units outside, looking for a hidden silver coin (the units were "programmed" for silver). I walked out to see how they were doing, they were having zero luck getting the H3Tec to work. Both of them scanned me, and completely failed to get any response from the 10-ounce silver bar I was carrying. I also attended the H3Tec seminar, where I listened to their "technical" claims. It was 100% nonsense. |

Mr. Omar Oliblish
The H3Tec is part of Charles L. Christensen. Chuck got some of his technology from Stephen Jepson of Spring City, Utah. Stephen was the master, who really found things with his unit, but Charles did not know a lot about it, none the less Charles decided to commercialize it for his "gold" I worked with Stephen for a few years. He and I were of the best of friends and shared common knowledge for a long time. Unfortunately Stephen Jepson passed away a few months ago and left his partners without the vital knowledge to operate his LRL. The problems with the H3Tec is that it hits and misses, but mostly misses, because what they do not know, Stephen did, but did not pass on. Also when they do get theirs working, they cannot define whether they are reading on flower gold, a gold vein or a solid brick or coin of gold. Here in Utah there are endless small deposits of flower gold in them there hills and since they cannot tell the relative density when they do have it working correctly, it makes for a lot of digging. The depth of a target was also mastered by Stephen Jepson and Chuck cannot do it. I have one of Stephens units and it can be built for about $1,200.00, but the detection technology and knowledge takes a long time to teach and I am not in the business of commercializing it.
Sincerely, Omar |

Cant accept that- technology is almost impossible to hide.
Everything built has a principle of physics, an application of said and is constructed of parts to perform that function. For a device to operate- it has to follow that process. There are many devices we know are 100% theoretically" possible but the technology/materials/power to construct them hasnt been developed. ( part 3 above) These dowsing rod "thingies" have a weak thread on 1 above but dont work on 2 and 3. |
