How Dave The Ring Finder Goes Beyond Jewelry Recovery to Keep Power Flowing in Ventura and Los Angeles Counties
When you think of finding lost rings, jewelry might come to mind—but at Dave The Ring Finder (www.davetheringfinder.com), my work goes far beyond that. As a proud member of www.theRingfinders.com, I also recover critical components like transmission tower rings that keep electricity flowing to homes across Ventura and Los Angeles Counties. Here’s how my metal detection expertise helps keep the lights on in towns throughout these regions.
Late one night, I received a text from John, a lineman with an electrical contractor in Ventura County. He described an urgent situation: two halves of a vital transmission tower ring had come apart and fallen 100 feet from a remote mountainside tower. Accessible only by a treacherous one-lane road, this rugged location in Los Angeles or Ventura County posed a serious challenge. Losing this ring wasn’t just a minor inconvenience—its absence threatened to halt power operations for over a week while a replacement was sourced. With power reliability on the line, I set out to recover these essential pieces.
The search started with the first half of the ring, which had landed near the tower’s base. Using my metal detector, I quickly located it, securing a key part of the puzzle. The second half, however, was trickier—it had ricocheted off the tower frame multiple times before disappearing into the wild terrain. Undaunted by the steep hillsides typical of Ventura and Los Angeles Counties, I conducted a detailed grid search. For hours, I navigated dense brush and uneven ground, relying on my detector’s steady signals to guide me.
At last, a faint tone broke through—a buried treasure three inches underground. With both halves recovered, I knew this wasn’t just a win for John’s team but for the countless homes depending on that tower for power. These weren’t rings for fingers; they were linchpins in the electrical grid, hidden in the remote landscapes of Ventura and Los Angeles Counties.
