Help Needed; Money Burning Hole In Pocket

I have a few bucks to spend on my Explorer. Not sure if I really need any of the following on my wish list: ML-3100 lithium ion battery and charger, two more lower rod assemblies (I only have one which is a pain to keep switching coils), a new sun ray stealth x-5 coil, a lesche 18" digging shovel. I wish I could afford all of them. I have roughly $260 to spend on my rig. I currently own the following accessories: two standard rechargeable battery packs, two chargers, 11" Pro Coil, SEF 6x8 coil, pro-pointer.

I could sell the batteries I have and buy the lithium ion battery system, two lower rods, and the shovel. However, the x-5 coil would be even better maybe than the 6x8 SEF in the trashy picnic sites I hunt. Can't decide. Any suggestions will be welcome.
 
I picked up a Sun Ray inline probe for that amount and wonder how I ever did without one. It is like have two detectors.

Problem is they quit making them for minelab detectors.
 
Ok, I ordered the ml-2900 lithium ion battery system, lower shaft, and lesche samson 18" digging shovel and went over my limit by $10. Got an angry look from the wife. Oh well, she'll get over it.
 
Thats an amazing battery..... makes your jaw drop everytime you finish hunting... the dag thing nevers seems to die. Its a real shame they stopped making the inline..... another must have.

Yes the battery is really a great investment. I can run after the sun goes down with the screen back light on and the battery level still does not drop. Mine has never dropped below 100% since I have been using it these past few days. I topped it off last night for the weekend.

The other thing I bought, the Lesche Samson Mini T-Handle digging shovel, is also excellent. It is perfect for digging the plugs for very deep items. My buddy and I use these mini shovels in lieu of the smaller gardening shovels or Lesche digger. We found that you can dig a plug from three sides with almost vertical walls so you don't damage the roots, flip/hinge it back to find item and return it and no-one will know you dug a hole in that spot. The folks that complain about the small shovels being used are ignorant because they actually cause less damage to the turf.
 
I was going to say, get the RnB battery. With the money you save by not having to buy AA batteries anymore, you can buy everything on your list. I have two of the RnB's. One for my Etrac and one for my EX ES II....nge
