    Thinking about undertaking the task of waterproofing a machine, any inputs or experience welcomed

    Hi all, I am just interested in the prospect of waterproofing a machine. Actually, ironically, it is already a water machine, but it is one in which the housing has already bowed, and the unit has leaked on me. It is an older White's PI Pro unit which is long since out of warranty - and...

    Any ideas on where to go on West Coast of Fla beach detecting?

    Hi there. I am travelling to the west coast of Florida - between Naples and Tampa (approx) next week. I am looking to do some water detecting. Any ideas on beaches where I could expect to find something? I am not asking anyone to tell me where their "honey holes" are, but just some names of...

    Question about expected alkaline battery life on Vaquero

    Hi fellow Tesoro users. I am here because I am concerned that my Vaquero's battery life is unusually short - and I am just concerned that there might be a small electrical problem, e.g. a short circuit or other reason why the battery just doesn't seem to last very long. I put in brand new...

    Which Serial Numbers are for Los Banos machines, what is the cutoff?

    I am looking at purchasing a CZ3D and would like to be able to know which range of S/N's correspond to the ones produced in Los Banos, CA before Fisher moved to Texas. Does anyone know how to spot a Los Banos machine versus a First Texas one based on its Serial Number? E.g. Serial Numbers less...

    Sovereign XS2a Pro - meter questions

    Does anyone know where I could find a replacement meter for a Sovereign XS2a pro - the meter says Sovereign XS2 on it, but it doesn't work anymore. I assume this was the original meter that came with the machine when it was new. Does anyone have one of these meters they would part with? Or...

    Does anyone use their Explorer to wet beach hunt - if so, is it any good?

    I guess my main question, can the Explorer (either II or SE) id coins sufficiently well to separate a zinc penny from other coins reliably? The beaches i hunt are loaded with 1000's of crusty zincs and it would be nice to notch them out, while still getting other stuff. I'm sure that since it...

    Sovereign Coil Questions & Recommendations

    I have a few questions about the multitude of coils made for the sovereign that are available. I am using an older Sovereign Xs-2a Pro, and have the Coinsearch 8" coil for it currently. My question is, I have seen the following coils for sale and I'm having trouble deciding which would be best...

    What is the best handheld pinpointer out there, in your opinion

    Hello there, I am posting a general question. How many of you use hand held pinpointers when you detect? What are some pros and cons of the models you use? Do some only work on certain detectors and what are the price ranges of them, etc? This is just a survey since I am looking into buying one...

    Ace 150 or Ace 250, differences, and which do you prefer and why?

    I am mostly a coinshooter, looking for a simple coin machine, like the meter but not programmable machines. I have heard that the Ace series are good for parks/schools type detecting since they have good recovery time between targets and hit hard on gold range stuff, and their depth on coins is...

    Need some advice about Tesoros - looking to buy one

    To whom it may concern, I am a little out of the loop with the newer Tesoro models. I have read some posts on this forum and I've heard about a few models - I guess I have narrowed down my search to these three. 1. DeLeon or Cortes (these two are quite similar I think) 2. Tejon 3. Vaquero...
