    Manticore Depth Test Result - Not too impressed

    Oddly enough I feel like target ID is getting worse when it comes to the dime/penny range. Everything else is gtg

    Silver ring

    So I was detecting a small beach in the Adirondacks with my 14 yr old son. I was using a manticore and he was using an equinox 600. I found a silver ring on the beach without my son noticing and he was becoming slightly dejected at finding so little. I dropped the ring and buried it in the...

    Manticore Depth Test Result - Not too impressed

    This is where the manticore has impressed me. Just to be clear for comparison sake, I have owned and used a Deus XP (first gen), Minelab Explorer SE, Nokta Anfibio, Fisher F75, Teknetics T2, CZ-5, Whites Spectrum XLT, Tesoro Cortes, Minelab Excalibur, and a Tesoro tiger shark (along with...

    Manticore

    I guess I can make the frequency adjustment a soft key and next time im out do a quick switch from multi frequency to a single high frequency and see if I get better Vd I am 100% disabled from the military and have a really bad back I love detecting more than anything but it causes me lots of...

    DFX vs XLT

    I purchased a manticore for myself and two equinox 600’s for my sons. My oldest son hates the equinox for a variety of reasons. I had an old Whites Spectrum XLT which I grew up with and which is the detector that made me fall in love with detecting but it finally gave up the ghost. I found a...

    Manticore

    So after owning a manticore for a few weeks I do like it but I find it disconcerting that pennies and dimes give me the same VDI reading. I remember when I had my minelab explorer SE I was always able to tell a penny from a dime. I wonder if I am doing something wrong here. Also, is there a...

    Target shape or target trace info

    Definitely true! It certainly isn’t x-ray vision but just another way to obtain information about what’s in the ground. I try to train my ears to spot subtle differences in tones and certainly the target ID helps but the 2d screen on the manticore has helped me see on several occasions that I...

    Back braces

    Does anyone else suffer from horrible back pain while metal detecting that has found a decent back brace as a solution? If so, which brace? I used to dig everything but now I only dig signals I think could be silver because there’s only so many holes my back will let me dig in a day now. It’s...

    Target shape or target trace info

    I love the target trace feature on the manticore that will sometimes help me see that I have two or three different targets under the coil as well as the general shape. What other detectors give information as to general shape??? I remember my Whites Spectrum XLT had the bar graph and two long...

    I think I finally found it! Nokta Double Score

    My first experience metal detecting was renting a Tesoro Compadre and I had a great time. It was a single knob machine and about as simple of a beep and dig machine as you get but I actually miss it.

    WTT my DJI Mavic drone w/tons of extras for detector

    I have a one year old DJI mavic with three batteries and two separate long range antennas. Piggy back battery adapter and two more batteries for very long range flight. Hard case. Extra props. Original box included. About 1500$ into it. Let me know what you have. Worst I can say is no thanks.

    X35 coil upgrade??

    I am a coin shooter and my xp has the old LF coil. I’ve been researching and want to upgrade. I’m thinking an x35 coil would be my best bet. They are simply expensive as hell. Is it really worth the upgrade price?

    WTT my Teknetics T2 special edition with extra coil

    My main detector is an XP deus so this has been used only one time for about 30 minutes since I got it a few years ago. It is an almost flawless condition. The only exception is a small aesthetic flaw where a mouse apparently nibbled at the edge of the foam arm pad. See photos. Would very much...
