just got a Equinox 600 as a back up to my 800.

Just a 600 for back up to my 800, is there anything special I should know?

Thanks MackDOg

Well you have two hands & 2 detectors have at it.

I'm a 600 user.... the noise cancellation is only automatic, so sometimes you have to press the noise cancellation button two or three times before things quiet down. But it usually does a good job on the first press of the button. And the only other thing I can think of that's critical is that you only have three recovery speeds.

thanks, recovery speed for me is just going slow enough to hear the tone for each target

thinking of making the 600 mainly for water and the 800 for the rest. I have all the coils so I can switch them out. I always want a good back up and I got a sweet deal by trading in my MX sport

The 600 is a great backup/water machine.
I use the Vanquish 540 as my backup

That is what I do. My 600 is just for water.
hears a water hint. Take the skid cover off the 11” coil and take a tube of silicon calk and fill all the holes in the bottom of the coil the let dry and the problem of sand filling the holes is gone. I rarely have to Pope it off and nothing is under it.

Yea... My wife's Vanquish-540 is also my backup for my Nox-600. But she doesn't know it.
