Hello to all and thanks for a great forum. I have learned many things here just by spending time reading everything I can. I do have one question that I cannot find the answer to: What is the difference between the DX-1 black Sunray probe and the white one? I have the opprtunity to buy either at different prices though and am just wanting to know the difference.

Thanks In Advance and Happy Hunting !

Hi Niles welcome to the forum. From what I understand is that they both are the same except for the black is the "new" color. I could be wrong, but that's what I was lead to believe. Hope that helps.

HH to all, Nancy
 
I thought that is what I heard, and it will go well my new MXT 300 I bought from Richard
Black will look better I think.:happy:

HH !

The white ones are the older probes while the black one are the new ones being made now, but other than that they are the same I understand
 
If you can buy the white one right but want black, a can of black spray paint can be had for a couple of bucks. Clean the probe well, I use Acetone, and spray away. With use, the paint will wear on the end. Touch-ups are cheap.
 
My white one is black because I wrapped it in electrical tape - easy to replace as the end gets worn.
 
I am waiting for all my purchases to come in now. I bought the black (slightly used/newer DX-1), an MXT-300 (slightly used), Jimmy Sierra digging kit, true temper planters buddy, etc. All should be here this week/next week. I have seen so many posts from Nancy and Larry that I feel this is a good starting outfit (I had an MXT years ago but never had the time to hunt). I only want 2 more coils other than the 12"; I want the bigfoot for the soccer fields (waiting for the new ones to be offered from Jimmy Sierra), and the 6" x 10" DD coil for everyday use and then I will have my dream gear now that I have the time to hunt again. Thanks for all the replys/modification info and Happy Hunting!
