    NiZN Re-chargeables

    Interesting and good information at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel%E2%80%93zinc_battery What I see is that they need a special charger, one that will charge the cells to 1.9VDC and then shut off. The NiZN do not take well to trickle chargers. The higher voltage should not be a problem...

    Zirconium Ring - Anyone Find or Have One They Can Get Numbers On

    I do not one ,nor have I found one that I can recall. But, as you know, it is like titanium, so not magnetic but it will conduct electricity. I would take a guess of a higher reading perhaps like a dime. Let us know please.

Hutchinson, American Patent: April 4, 1879 Number: 213,992 This was an improvement to Matthews gravitating stopper and worked on the same principle. When the stopper was...

    What USB charger do you use for the Equinox ? can you use the USB off a computer?

    Note to my above answer... The 500mA rating is for USB2 and with USB3 the current was upped to 900mA for the typical laptop computers. Chargers are a different story I have them rated from 500mA to 2.4Amps (2400mA). Most devices you would be charging will decrease the current draw from the...

    What USB charger do you use for the Equinox ? can you use the USB off a computer?

    Just about any charger will work, some faster than others. And definitely faster than the computer's USB port. Look at the fine print on all chargers and pick one that has the OUTPUT as 5VDC 2.0Amps (2000mA). The Amp rating is the one you want to be sure of. 2.0A will charge the detector about...

    A Headphone Question for Equinox Users

    I made a waterproof adapter EQ800 to GG Amphibians, no complaints at all. As wireless does not work when control panel of any detector is submerged the Law of Blue Tooth physics has not been overcome yet. Maybe someday someone will come up with a way to communicate from underwater to above...

    NOX truns on/off on/off ...

    When I found the bracelet I was comparing 3 detectors; the 800, Excalibur and ATX. The Excalibur did not respond, the ATX gave a choppy signal, but the 800 was a solid signal. I do not use the display very often as most of my detectors do not have a display. But with the new 800 I was checking...

    NOX truns on/off on/off ...

    Way back in the spring of 2018 - two years ago... A half an hour into my second salt water hunt, while digging a target the Equinox’s audio went wild, multiple beeps of different tones and would not stop. I saw the Cd error code, powered the unit OFF and went back to the car where I dried it...

    Minelab Jacket and Vest

    At a Minelabing event, maybe 10-15 years ago. I have seen only one other in use. I fund one at a dealer as in 1954streetrod's picture - grayish in color, new, size large. Let me know if you are interested and I will PM the contact info. Lots of pockets, zippers and mesh lining.

    Minelab Jacket and Vest

    They had a vest, and I have one from several years ago. It is Minelab blue and has a red Minelab logo in it, Maybe you could find one on the auction site. I looked but did not see one at this time. Might try the wanted section on the Forum.
