    Metal Detecting Tools

    OH Oh I almost left this post when I seen the shovels as it is a touchy subject for me, but glad I didn't as most of this is interesting and people need to see. The Shovels is something are made for a purpose, that is field hunting and construction site where it don't make a difference as it...

    Garrett deep seeker coin finder

    If you are new to detecting than I would not buy it. There is a lot of controls to learn what they do and I think from the looks of it you will be all ways readjusting it. Like I say if you are new to detecting you want something easy to use or you will get discussed with detecting fast. I bet...

    I have aquestion concerning the Minelab X-Terra Elite

    That's interesting and do feel this is what Garrett is doing with the new Voltec 5,7, and the 9 as I do have a 9 and still learning it, but the difference is if you have a 5 and want go to the 7 you can purchase and unload it to your 5 and if you want the 9 from the 5 that can be done too, but...

    What voltage do you replace your 9 volt batteries in your detector?

    Interesting topic and my opinion maybe just mine, but on my Tesoro's and my uni probe pin pointer that take 9 volt battery to operate I tried rechargeable 9 volt batteries and found that they only put out 8.5 or something like that, but the Uni probe would just chatter and be unstable with the...

    Is there any smaller coils for the new Voltex ??

    Good to hear there will be other coil being made, thanks for the info Good to hear the plans are being made for the smaller coil, seems like with most of us that are older the smaller and lighter coil work better. I will probably get the 8 inch coil when they are available...

    Is there any smaller coils for the new Voltex ??

    If not than wonder if one of the Garrett coil will work on the Voltex?? I like the smaller coil to learn a different detector. I hope the headphone adapter for the AT pro will work on the new Voltex as they look the same hook up to the detector and has the 1/4 jack for the headphones, just...

    I too remember reading about this as I think it did a lot of damage to the whole block plus if i remember right lot of broken window in a 2 block area.. The guy was dead what they could find of him, sot they are nothing to mess with and been told if a person finds one not to touch it and connect...

    Fantastic end to 2024

    Thats a very nice collection of finds you found, think I would go back more time as I am sure there is much more. I know when I was younger I could go many hours detecting each day, but now that I am older (77) It hard to detect more that a hour or so and sure do miss it. Rick

    More question on the Vortex

    When I paired the headphones I had the probe there too and feel the probe got paired too at the same time. The reason I think is when switching the option for the probe I hear the beeps in the headphones. I have the volume of the headphone max on the control on the headphone and on the detector...

    Quattro on the way.

    I had one for a while, but I think it was a earlier one as I was a Minelab dealer at the time and seen a problem with mine, they sent me a new one and it was no better, but for hunting with it I had seen something that impressed me and even got a signal my friend with the Explorer couldn't get...

    More question on the Vortex

    Just playing around with my V9 when I have a little time and trying to get to know it before I have to use it which will be a while from the looks of it. I just purchased the wireless headphones of Garrett with the Garrett pin pointer so I can hear everything though my headphones, I got the...

    Anybody Ever Try This???

    You know when SunRay made the pin pointers they had the right idea as the probe was a actual 1 inch coil. Now if you disconnect the probe from the switching control box and added a smaller coil on a old extra shaft you would have it. the toggle switch one way would be the main coil and flip the...

    Vortex V9 is going to be here Jan 09

    I got it in on the 9th as was told, seems light weight compared to many I tried. I had to start it up to see what it sounded like before charging to see if I put everything together right. It stared up fine and waved a couple of coins across the coil and seems to be good, but the battery went...

    UNI Probe Headset

    The ones I have are the older ones before Detector pro sold out the business, so they are not Bluetooth and dont know if they made them different. I doubt it as they are so many different variation . The ones I have has a cord that goes from the detector to the headphones and if I remember...

    Vortex V9 is going to be here Jan 09

    That did cross my mind and sure hope it was like the Troy X5 & X3 Shadow when he seen some problem and corrected the problems before they were released. Maybe Garrett did the same, I hope anyway. I am sure we will find out soon when people will get out to try them...

    Finally found my first Half Dime!

    Thats a great find you picked up and I myself never found a seated half dime, but many seated dime over the year. I did get 2 Canadian fish scales that are the same size one year with the 1896 one that look like it was lost when new. On the coins that are bent I put them between 2 of the 2X4...

    Cleaning clad question

    I have tried different grades of the grit and find that the coins just come out too tough looking as it seem to scratch them too much What I found works good for me is separating the clad from the copper and run in a rock tumbler with the aquarium gravel water and some real lemon juice for about...
