    Dry/Land Headphone Connectors Waterproof?

    Hi folks, I don't use my Infinium in a scuba (fully submerged, as in ME fully submerged) but I do use it in waist high surf and have a question. As I do not use the waterproof headphones (I like the volume control of the dry and have NO need for the fully submersible ones). That being said, is...

    Safe to hip mount?

    Hi folks, I've seen several posts about people having problems hip mounting the Infinium. Something about the flex on the cable connector causing breaks. I'm a bit disappointed to hear that as that was a huge selling factor to me. Was that a temporary problem or is it still occurring and if so...

    E-Trac or Infinium for gold nugget shooting

    Hi Minelab E-Trac and Garrett Infinum fans... I'm wondering which machine between these two you feel would be better as a quick nugget hunting machine (not for flour super small gold). I realize the differences between the technologies used by each of them (I own both as well as a GPX-4500)...

    What is the little clear window on the front for/amplifier speaker available?

    Hi all, I just received my brand new Infinium from Steve at AK Minding (Thanks Steve) and I have a question that a search didn't find anything for. What is the little clear window on the front used for, it almost looks like it should be a light there or something? Is it there to see if any...

    Replace stock E-Trac coil with 15x12 SEF Coil?

    Hi folks, I've used the search here in the forums and on Google and am just curious if any of you have replaced your stock E-Trac coil with the one 15x12 SEF Coil that Kellyco sells? Is it waterproof, did you notice any improvement, was it worth it? Also, can that same coil be used on the...

    GPX-4500 for beach use?

    Hi all.. I have both a Minelab E-Trac and a Minelab GPX-4500 and I'm wondering what the general opinion would be as to which would be the better machine for beach use for finding gold rings, jewelery etc. Cheers in advance for your thoughts. Jennifer :canadaflag: :ausflag: :minelab:

    Here's one for you Garrett fans (movie link)

    Hi all... I snuck over from the Minelab forums (my usual haunts) to share with you a link.... he's holding his coil a bit high but maybe they couldn't afford a metal detecting technical adviser. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxAuV625uuw Jennifer :canadaflag::ausflag: :minelab:

    Coil Cover (for bottom of coil) and dust cover

    Hi, does anyone know if Minelab makes a coil cover (scuff cover) for the bottom of the stock coil that comes with the E-Trac? I want to minimize abrasions as much as possible if needed. Also, does the dust cover that fits the Explorer SE and Quattro also fit the E-Trac.. I bought one that was...

    GPX-4500 area of the board?

    Hi folks.. I don't see a dedicated Minelab GPX-4500 detector section of the site like I do an E-Trac, X-terra etc... the closest I see is this board or maybe the Excalibur board... Is there one for 4500 owners? Cheers Jennifer :canadaflag: :ausflag:

    ZAGG Invisible Shield for E-Trac, anyone installed it?

    Has anyone installed this on their metal detector, have a video or pictures of it installed? Are you happy with it? I heard the factory cover is too hard to see and am considering ordering this item. Cheers Jennifer

    Does the E-Trac come with the 12v car charger

    Hi guys n gals.. sorry for such a dumb question but Minelab does not have a "supplied in the box" section in the manual or on the box and a web search didn't help... can anyone tell me if the E-Trac (sold in North America) comes with a car charger? Thanks Jennifer

    Thank you for advice, picked up an E-Trac from Gemini Sales in Burnaby today.

    Hi all, a big thank you to those who gave advice and/or assisted with my questions regarding my decision on an E-Trac, Excalibur II or X-Terra... I ended up picking up an E-Trac today from Pete (I think his name was) at Gemini Jeep Sales in Burnaby, BC today. I got a great price and he was very...

    Wanted E-Trac Vancouver, BC Area

    Hi all... I've decided to pick up an E-Trac but the dealer in the Vancouver area has been "how do I say this".. less than knowledgeable it appears and I'd rather buy from an individual or board sponsoring dealer in the area. If any of you have an E-Trac for sale or can recommend a good dealer in...

    Excalibur II 1000 or E-Trac (beaches and land mainly)

    Hi folks, this is my first post. I used the search engine which was useful but didn't really help with my decision... I was going to get an E-Trac till I noticed the Excalibur II 1000 were reasonable in price on the used market. I compared the two and noticed that the E-Trac is a wider frequency...
