New 12.5 volt Lithium-Ion battery for E-Trac

I have one and got the dreaded "over voltage" warning that just it down 5 times in a row....hope it
its not the battery
 
Maybe I missed it, sorry. But, what was the difference between the weight of the two?

I would be totally interested if there was a 3/4 pound difference it was for the good.

I seriously don't think you're interested in our Batt Packs at all !

I guarantee if you did get one you would not regret it !!

But for fyi the ML-2900 Batt Pack is 6.1 oz ..

Best Regards

I received my new ML-2900 on Friday. Plugged it up and was fully charged in an hour and 35 minutes. Dropped it in my Etrac yesterday morning and hunted all day with the back light on. Noticed when I shut it down at dark that I still had 3 bars. If I had been using my factory batteries, I would have been well into my second pack. So there's no doubt the ML-2900 will outlast anything else. And something else I noticed - it seems the higher voltage causes the signals to hit harder. Found a 1891 Indian Head at 8 inches and it sounded like 4 inches with my factory battery pack. With the ML-2900, there's no way I could have walked past that Indian. I am seriously considering buying a spare ML-2900 just in case mine gets stolen! I will never use a different battery in my Etrac, never.

Thanks RNB Innovations for a great product!

Next you'll be telling me the battery pack digs the coins for you lol. Ask any expert and they will tell you no performance gain other than run time can be had by using one battery or the other.
 
robertj298 - With all due respect, I have been MDing for over 40 years. I have dug 48 CW artillery shells and several hundred bullets, buttons, and coins. I have dug everything from shipwreck stuff to Merry Widow rubber cases. I am confident that I have dug more stuff than you will ever recover. Unlike yourself, I consider myself to be an expert. Without a doubt, I can tell you that that the ML-2900 battery is light-years ahead of any battery I have ever used. It indeed hits the targets harder, and I really don't care if you believe that or not. The 12 volts of the ML-2900 versus 9.6 volts of the factory Minelab battery is discern-able, especially on deep targets. This will be my last post in this thread.

I hope that means you won't be posting any more misinformation. I'm sure the ML-2900 is a great battery but it will not give you any other gains in performance other than run time. This is from Tom Dankowski. http://www.dankowskidetectors.com/discussions/read.php?2,21652,21766#msg-21766
