I have not been out all week due to hurricane like weather here in Germany. Today the weather was better, but not much, high winds and a little rain. Thought I would give it a try and it was not bad all bundled up. I detected for about 1.5 hours then my batteries died, I may have a weak battery as all but one still had sufficient voltage and I did not have many hours on the freshly charged batteries. The only spare batteries I had were in my camera, no problem I thought, back to the car, changed batteries, turned on the machine and back to the field. About half way to the spot, the machine turned off, hmmm? Turned it back on and noted low batts then it shutdown again, spare camera batteries were also low. Oh CRUD!!! Still had two spare batteries in the car but, the wind and rain picked up big time and I just took it as a sign, give it up! I had already found 12 coins and few relics. Here
